Honestly, I almost drove right by this car. Right when it got to my pheripherial vision my brain was like - what the hell is that. Then I slowed down and got behind it. But since I was driving solo, the pictures could be better. They have quite the rig though. Two downward pointing lidars, and two spinning lidars in the tower with a 360 degree rig.
That's all I could see from freeway speeds in stop and go traffic. It was easy to keep track of him when our lanes diverged though. You can spot that tower from far away once you knew it isn't a bicycle on a roof rack. I was able to drive slow enough to get the second two shots.
I had a Tom Tom gps once, I threw it away. It was crap, not worth passing on to even a stranger. I use Garmin now.
ReplyDeleteEven though I still hear their name bandied about from time to time I thought they went bankrupt. Another one of those companies that never fully dies. They have a shitload of lidar money though. That was an expensive rig.
