Good God it's like you're going out of the way to intentionally misunderstand the point.
Nobody is saying that the lidar on a car should cost the same as a lidar on a vacuum cleaner. What everyone is saying is that if the company that makes vacuum cleaners thinks it's important enough to put lidar on, surely you're not the company that makes cars should think that it's important enough to put lidar on.
Stop being deliberately dense.
Its weaponized incompetence.
I bet they do the same shit with their partner when it comes to dishes, laundry, and the garbage.
lol, what partner
You're either taking to a fanboy or Elon on ket. You ain't gettin' through.
Whether lidars are reliable enough to run on autonomous cars has nothing to do with whether they are cost efficient enough to run on vacuum cleaners though. The comparison is therefore completely irrelevant. Might as well complain that jet fighters don't allow sharing on Instagram your location, because your much cheaper phone does.
