Elon Musk would tell me I’m wrong, and never bet against him, but it’s my instinct — in the near-term it’s going to be very difficult to build a camera only product that has superhuman level of safety. Will it be possible? Quite possibly yes. If you can have instrumentations that include cameras and LiDAR ; the cost of Solid State LiDAR is only $400-$500— WHY NOT include LiDAR as well in order to achieve superhuman safety. So, possible? Yeah it will be — I don’t know when, but is possible the better product? I’m not sure. All of your partners right now are using a combination of camera, Radar and LiDAR, and I personally think that’s the right solution— but I could be proven wrong.”

However, in this video Elon explains rocket science in such a simple way that even the average person can start to understand some basics.
