The interior of a Tesla Model S is shown in autopilot mode in San Francisco, California, U.S., April 7, 2016. REUTERS/Alexandria Sage/File PhotoTesla Inc (TSLA.O) has dropped radar sensors from its semi-autonomous driving system, Autopilot, raising concerns over the safety of the camera-only version, Tesla Vision. HOW DOES TESLA'S SYSTEM WORK, WITH AND WITHOUT RADAR? In May 2016, a Tesla car crashed, killing the driver, when Autopilot failed to detect a white semi-truck crossing in front of it. No company has yet deployed a fully functional self-driving system in scale, and the entire industry is years behind initial projections.
