Description
A front camera, similar to the same HD camera as in the back would resolve almost all issues with parking sensors. It’s not the same but could help a lot, particularly to avoid scratching the front bottom.
Competitive/Pricing/Notes
Would involve the cost of a camera some kind of video switcher and a bit of software. We estimate the retail cost to be less than $200 if produced in high volume and integrated into the Model S. Seems quite doable. One concern is how to keep the front camera clean from bug hits and dirt.
Status
One third-party front camera solution was available at TMC, which was displayed on the Tesla screen. The parts cost about $450.
The Cybertruck includes a front camera.
