From Transport Evolved.
A few weeks ago, we made a video on the channel about Lidar – and its place in semi-autonomous vehicles. And in that video, Kate disclosed that both she and Nikki drive vehicles without LIDAR.
So today, we thought it about time we give you an update on the Chevrolet Bolt EV fitted with a Comma 3 and running a version of Frogpilot called Starpilot, Kate’s Kia e-Niro and its Comma 3 unit, and finally, the long-awaited update to Ford’s BlueCruise to version 1.4 thanks to an over-the-air update.
