Tesla cameras will monitor driver awareness
A new software update for Tesla cars appears to include monitoring of drivers through the car's internal cameras when Autopilot is in use. The "self-driving" feature requires drivers to pay attention at all times, but has been criticised as easy to fool. Users have been able to activate the assist feature and leave the driver's seat, and video themselves doing so. But the new feature will detect how attentive the driver actually is. Tesla's cars have relied on sensors in the wheel to make sure the driver's hands remain on it.
