Autopilot is smarter

While technology and legislation do not allow standalone driving systems, Tesla continues to improve its Autopilot, which still remains a driving aid system, with the person behind the wheel being responsible. However, if the Autopilot was already the most effective on the market for the way it connects the adaptive cruise control with the active lane assist - not limited like other manufacturers to a maximum force applied to the steering wheel (about 2 Nm), reaching automatically brakes if you conclude that the speed is too high for the curve - it prepares to take another leap forward.
The main difference of the V9 version of Autopilot is the ability of the system to decide if it can and can change lanes, on a highway, to overcome, using the numerous cameras and the radars, that allow him to determine the exact position of the cars that surround him , as well as those approaching and at what speed. With the new V9 software, Autopilot opens and blinks wherever it pleases, being the only one on the market to achieve such a feat without the intervention of the driver, depending only on the destination entered in the navigation system and the programmed speed. However, the aim remains to simplify the driver's work, making it safer for you and others, and not rely on the system without any kind of supervision, as if it were autonomous.
Initially it was thought that this version would also automatically manage the entrances and exits of motorways and freeways, without the driver needing to operate the flashing - with the vehicle doing it on its own - but the manufacturer preferred to opt for continuing to test the beta before validating it. However, upgrading your V9 software will be done slowly and gradually so that you continue to accumulate miles of use and experience before releasing it to all Model S, X and 3 users. Come on, Tesla ...
So far, the Summon system, which can be translated as "summoning," was limited to remotely driving a Tesla, moving it forward or backward. The aim was to simplify the maneuvers in car parks, where lack of space makes it difficult to open the doors to get in or out. With the new software update, the Summon switches to Advanced Summon and makes it possible for the driver to "call" the vehicle to move to its position, automatically.
Tesla has been developing this system for some time to make life easier for users, including those who forget where they parked the car. By pressing a button on the application, the Tesla will move to wherever the driver is, telling that inside the car park, as this autonomous system can not be used on public roads. Here's an example:

The Advanced Summon, as well as the new Autopilot V9, which will also allow the Autopark and, until the end of the year, the automatic recognition and response to traffic signals and light signals, is part of Full Self-Driving, a pack of equipment more evolved that until now was known by Enhanced Autopilot, with a cost of 5,000 dollars, besides the $ 3,000 relative to the base version of Autopilot.
