On: The death of self-driving cars is greatly exaggerated

Park sensors, for example, use radar but they are not equivalent to human vision because humans can't see the back of the car, and they can't measure the distance as accurately.

I thought parking sensors used ultrasonic. Wouldn’t that make them sonar?

I believe there are also EM ones, but in either case, my point still stands.

[Dalewyn → selcuka]

I meant that they are equivalent in a very fundamentalist sense.

You have input, taken by sensors, converted into usable form by a processor. There is no fundamental difference between visible light and radio waves, per se.
