Sure but why on earth are we relying on cameras to drive cars? Many modern cars have radar, which is far more reliable.

Natural vision is awesome, it works for billions of humans. We just have nothing close to what the human eyes and brain offers in terms of tech in that spectrum.

I think it needs to be a combination of sensors since radar sucks in the rain/snow/fog.
