Tesla claims that these functions will be restored once its vision-only system has achieved parity with the old ultrasonic sensors.

Tesla has announced that it's phasing out ultrasonic sensors (USS) used in its EVs to detect short-range obstacles, Electrek has reported. While other automakers use LiDAR, radar and other sensors ...

One way to accomplish this involves four HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor units that transmit data through an Arduino into a Linux computer. The end result is a virtual touchscreen that can be made at home.

Tesla Is Now Removing Ultrasonic Sensors In Move To Vision Only Tesla already removed radar and is relying on cameras for its advanced driver-assist systems, unlike most rival automakers.

Tesla is removing ultrasonic sensors from Model 3 and Model Y vehicles, the next step in CEO Elon Musk’s plan to only use cameras and software to support its advanced driver assistance system ...

Tesla is phasing out ultrasonic sensors on its cars as it continues its shift towards its camera-based Tesla Vision system. The sensors will initially disappear from new Model 3 and Model Y, with ...

Tesla's Autopilot system currently uses eight cameras, 12 ultrasonic sensors, and forward radar to read lane lines and detect nearby cars.

Tesla writes that, in much the same way as its former radar sensors, the role played by their ultrasonic sensors will be replaced by the camera system.
