Recently, Tesla is applying for a patent and has answered many questions from netizens. Moreover, the patent that Tesla is applying for, like Cybertruck just released, will also become a major process in the history of automobiles.
This patent can use a vehicle-mounted laser system to clean the debris on the front and rear windshields, cameras and solar panels on the roof. As long as the sensor senses the stain on the glass, the laser will emit high-energy light speed like the prism tower in Red Alert 2, which will make the stain burn, thus keeping the surface of the car clean.
From the beginning, all kinds of black technologies were a big selling point of Tesla. Tesla's core technology Autopilot assisted driving system has saved the lives of many drivers, passengers, passers-by and animals during repeated driving.
A foreign Tesla owner was driving on the highway at 9 pm. Suddenly, a wolf appeared on the roadside. Before the owner reacted, Autopilot took the lead in triggering the "Elk Test" operation, making an emergency turn to avoid the wolf and saving a life.
Dutch car owner Tesla suddenly braked while speeding on the highway. The owner mistakenly thought that Tesla was broken and broke down. Unexpectedly, after 1.5 seconds, a rear-end collision suddenly occurred in front. It turned out that Autopilot sensed that the vehicle in front was driving too fast and the distance between vehicles was too close. If you don't avoid it in time, a rear-end collision will happen!
After the emergence of autonomous driving, traditional car companies panicked.
As early as the end of February this year, Daimler and BMW Group announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding to jointly develop autonomous driving technology. In the initial stage of cooperation, the key point is to promote the research and development of a new generation of driver assistance technology, expressway automatic driving and parking functions. At the beginning of September, Audi also announced at the Frankfurt Motor Show that it had joined the alliance of competitors Daimler and BMW to jointly develop the driver assistance system!
Although Tesla applied for a patent this time, it is only a new technology, which can use a laser beam instead of a wiper to clean car glass. Although only Tesla has made this technology at present, there will definitely be many traditional car companies and even new energy car companies in the future who want to compete with Tesla and want to grab the market with Tesla.
Since we want to compete with Tesla for the market, Tesla's opponents will be scrambling to launch various black technologies and Tesla competitions. It is not difficult to imagine that there may be car companies including Tesla in the future to develop a function that can clean the whole car with laser or other technologies. Who will go to the car wash shop to wash the car at that time?
