I believe traffic lights currently use three bulbs, red, yellow and green. Even without color a computer system can easily determine when each light is lit.
If there are single bulbs displaying red, green and yellow please give clear examples.
What do you mean by proportion? They are different data sources, and their usage is determined by system design.
eg A driving decision system needs to know object distances AND traffic light colours. It doesn't particularly need to know the source of either.
You could have a camera-only system that accurately determines colour and fuzzy-determines distance. Or you could have a LIDAR-only system that accurately determines distance and fuzzy-determines colour.
Or you use both, get accurate LIDAR-distance and accurate camera-colour and skip all the fuzzy-determination steps.
Or keep the fuzzy stuff and build a layer of measurement-agreement for redundancy.
So then the question becomes, what's your proportion when deciding whether to stop at a traffic light? Is it mostly light colour or mostly distance to other objects? Or 50/50?
Because it really feels like you're just JAQing off, either to come to some "gotcha" moment or a pseudo-intellectual exercise. In either case, the questions feel bad faith.
> At what proportion? Is it mostly lidar or mostly cameras? Or 50/50?
What proportion of your vision is rods or cones? Depends on the context. You can do without one. But it’s better with both.
> How about when you come 4 way stop. LIDAR is useless as it wouldn't recognize anyones turn signals
Bad example. 99% of a 4-way stop is remembering who moved last, who moves next by custom and who may jump the line. What someone is indicating is, depending on where you are, between mildly helpful and useless.
The grandparent mentioned "world wide mesh network internet". Is Amazon Sidewalk world wide? The link you posted only mentioned it launched in the United States in 2021. https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/devices/everything-you-need... shows a coverage map with large areas unserviced.
Yes, in the same way stored passwords of today may eventually be broken by the quantum computing tools of tomorrow.
The post I replied to implied that gait analysis is a viable alternative option. Gait analysis is not an option today, or this year, or even in the next decade. There is no data supporting the claim that it can be done reliably enough to get down to practical reidentification use cases.
To add to the comparisons. Protonmail is showing as 180 MB on GrapheneOS. Add in user data and cache and it's 495 MB. I don't consider myself a big email user so I am a bit appalled.
I do not understand the attraction or rather the glorification of going to a Cafe alone.
"It was pure delight. Every element. Or rather, the non-existence of any element. No phone. No headphones. No tablet. No laptop."
I believe I can do this anywhere.
They talk about interactions with people in the cafe but it is primarily avoiding interactions.
Ok, but "where the rubber meets the road", I've seen 0 BYDs in the wild in the US, including a recent 1,800 mile trip half way across the country. Earlier in 2025 I took a trip to Scotland and they had 2 dealerships I saw and I saw a couple of them on the roads.
Have you not heard of climate change influenced by fossil fuel burning, or are you a climate change skeptic?
The general consensus is that climate change is a crisis, now and in the foreseeable future.
