I got lucky and my car does hands free driving without a driver monitoring camera but that's probably a somewhat rare setup and won't exist in a few years. I think the newer models of my car don't have a camera but they have capacitative sensors built into the steering wheel that require you to maintain contact - whereas my setup just has a torque sensor that requires periodic contact and as long as the road is straight or the speed is low it won't ping you to touch the wheel except every minute - and I've never been able to get more info - none of the car magazines explain the specifics or parameters of how the new hands free driving systems work i.e. how many seconds can you have your hands off the wheel the problem is you have such widely varying setups and they all are created by lawyers so they will make it more onerous to keep constantly looking at the road and with both hands on the wheel than to just turn off the hands free assist at some point. >wait for a solid 15 second minecraft youtuber intro to complete before i can see any gauges or lightseh that's not true its like 2-3 seconds and 10 seconds to load the nav on my machine
>>28941502Gay
>>28941505I really want to put all manner of very gay bumper stickers on my car, but, I also don't want it to get bashed in in the ruby red ultra-maga rural areas I visit. alas!
>>28941502>eh that's not truei'm dead fucking serious i sat there for 15+ seconds watching a fucking video play in a chinese pile of shit
>>28941507actually it was an indian car even worse
>>28941507>i'm dead fucking serious i sat there for 15+ seconds watching a fucking video play in a chinese pile of shitwhat car was it? maybe it was like an older mg with ancient software? my kia is I think 2 software systems behind the "newest" one but it's still relatively decent and it updates over the air so you get new maps even though the nav system does take you some crazy ways (it tries to go the most direct way even if that involves non-roads/trails) so I have to load google maps on my phone too and I had one trip where google maps gave a wrong direction and then my car's nav gave a different wrong direction so I had to sort of bi-angulate the correct direction by checking one system against anotherwhere are you that chinese cars exist?I mean, they are meant to be cheap, you can't expect much.
>>28941510they sell a 4x4 utility vehicle in Australia I think and I'm kinda rooting for it cuz the design is a little funky and that market segment could use all the competition it can getbut yeah Indian cars are the cheapest other than like mystery 3rd world cars from no-name brands
>>28941512it was an xuv700 i'm pretty sure but i can't find any videos of the long ass intro
>>28941498I wouldn't know. My youngest car is 25 years old.
>>28941512>and it updates over the air so you get new maps
