  1. RJ Demonstrates Autonomous Hands-Free Driving Aids

    Watch again. He said they haven't shown anything that have been done by their hundreds of people working on ADAS yet. He revealed his own lie. I am betting my money on not seeing anything more than the Mobileye system until they ramp up R2 production. They will say the same thing a year later...
  2. Comma AI/OpenPilot Update -- Watch it in Action on Gen1 Rivian (Video)

    This following video can confirm that Rivian has its ADAS and infotainment computing hardware separated and the hardware shown in the picture is for infotainment and not ADAS. I don't think Rivian will upgrade their Orin chip on ADAS hardware any time soon, at least not doing it at the launch of R2.
  3. Comma AI/OpenPilot Update -- Watch it in Action on Gen1 Rivian (Video)

    FWIW, this is the infotainment chip which is not relevant to assisted driving discussed in this thread. Gen2's infotainment system does need some improvement.
  4. MKBHD Gen2 R1S Review

    This might be just a tease for the new quad motor R1 review next week.
  5. RJ quote: more sensors (including radar & lidar) is a way to catch up to Tesla's camera-only autonomous driving system

    I have a hunch Rivian will add lidars to R1 soon to catch up on autonomous driving races.
  6. "A mirage take shape Feb 19" - Rivian teasers [for new California Dune color?]

    I think this is it. Should be the new color named California Dune caught in this Rivian UX development demo:
  7. RJ quote: more sensors (including radar & lidar) is a way to catch up to Tesla's camera-only autonomous driving system

    They might have secured a good deal on the sourcing on sensors. The cost of sensors will go down as they become more common and even a must-have in the near future.
  8. RJ quote: more sensors (including radar & lidar) is a way to catch up to Tesla's camera-only autonomous driving system

    Rivian is following Chinese EV makers' two year ago footsteps and I can see they will be successful in improving Gen2 autonomous system by a lot. Check videos from Kyle out of spec recorded in his China trips. Lots of car are able to have FSD like behaviors, even the ones with a lower price tag.
  9. Spotted: Lidar testing using Gen1 Rivian

    This could be the ground truth vehicle mentioned in 2024 Rivian investor day:
  10. Rivian HANDS FREE ADVANCED DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEM is coming 2025 + EYES OFF SYSTEM in 2026 -- Per CEO RJ SCARINGE

    I won't buy one until Rivian delivers it. Good luck trying to trick people buying Gen2 vehicle and then release the software that's only compatible with Gen3.
  11. Driver+/Autonomy cannot be trusted in heavy traffic – just got into an accident with a slow merging truck

    As much as Rivian tries to limit the ADAS system, this kind of accident is inevitable. If trying to avoid getting these news is Rivian‘s reason for its conservative development on its ADAS system, I think they are wrong. I remember Rivian tried to advertise “slow development on ADAS” as a...
  12. Any one regretted the R1S based on size?

    If the car can park itself in a tight place, people could exit the car before parking. In case of spot that's smaller than R1, it would be also hard for other smaller cars to park.
  13. Any one regretted the R1S based on size?

    if Rivian releases auto park feature, undecided folks in this threads could be easily concerted to happy customers without regrets.
  14. Big Technology Podcast RJ Interview (R3 will be much less expensive than R2)

    My understanding is that Rivian is still at the development stage of making lane centering work great on highway thus they will not have anything available in the near term to compete with Tesla's FSD at all. In terms of assisted driving development, they are like Tesla in 2017, of course FSD...
  15. Big Technology Podcast RJ Interview (R3 will be much less expensive than R2)

    “Today, if you get into a Rivian and put it on the highway, it will drive itself on the highway. It can change lanes in the highway, but when you leave the highway, you retake control. What will happen for us is we'll continue to grow and expand the number of roads and the types of roads that...
  16. Voice stack “by 2025”

    Take that with a large grain of salt. They were planning to release enhanced driving assist by the end of 2024 but there was no mentioning of it in the recent end of year update leak. Who knows when will that happen. Hope Rivian gives clear communication when they are changing plan instead of...
