Elon Musk confirmed that Tesla is currently in ‘early’ discussions to license its self-driving technology with a ‘major’ automaker. But this time, Musk mentioned that Tesla is currently in “early talks” with a “major OEM” about licensing its Autopilot/Full Self-Driving package. Integrating Tesla’s self-driving technology into other automakers’ vehicles would be quite a task, as it would require integrating Tesla’s self-driving computer along with several cameras all around each vehicle at specific angles. The camera-based strategy is also distinct from what most other automakers have implemented, often relying on different sensors, like lidar. It’s easy to imagine that amid those talks, Tesla started to sell them on its Autopilot/Self-Driving technology too.
