New research shows driverless car software is significantly more accurate with adults and light skinned people than children and dark-skinned people.

Cameras should be using infrared to look for objects in the dark and not fucking hoping it looks slightly less dark than the surrounding pixels. It being “dark” is not an excuse. Cars drive at night and need to be engineered around that fact.
Edit: note this is about cameras. Ideally, you’d use radar which wouldn’t care but if you are just dual purposing cameras used for driving, this is the bare minimum.
What happens in summer when it hits 98.6 degrees?
Not thermal imaging infrared, that would only see hot objects and be terrible for everything else. Just a normal infrared camera. Like most security cameras. They give off their own infrared using LED’s around the camera to see at night. Generally with a light sensor to know when it’s too dark to switch on the infrared lights.
Maybe this is banned in cars since infrared lights might pop up on rear view mirror cameras and such in newer cars, causing issues. Can’t say I know car manufacturing law.
