I had seen the blind spot monitoring for a few other brands like Lexus and Kia, and I had always wondered why Tesla never had it. 🤔 Nice to see the improvement!

I wonder if there is IP involved in implementing these features, so paying for it has to be worked out. That's prolly the part that takes the longest.

Curious. What kind of IP do you have in mind?
My understanding is you can patent things like not allowing a door to open when a car is approaching, so no doubt some smart person has done that. So if a car company wants to do that they’ll have to license it from the patent holder.
