Tesla tests Cybercab robotaxi without steering wheel or traditional sensors

Tesla has begun public deployment of its Cybercab robotaxi in Austin, Texas, a two-seater autonomous vehicle without a steering wheel or traditional controls. This model uses a modified version of Full Self-Driving (FSD) operating solely with cameras and neural networks, excluding sensors like lidar or radar. Unlike conventional Tesla vehicles, the Cybercab does not require direct human supervision but is monitored remotely. This approach represents a radical shift in Elon Musk’s philosophy, rejecting multiple sensors in favor of a simplified system. Safety and legal responsibility now rest en

• Cybercab runs modified Full Self-Driving (FSD) version without steering wheel
• Autonomous system relies only on cameras and neural networks, no lidar or radar
