Tesla Owners Use Doll Heads to Trick Full Self-Driving System
In China, some Tesla drivers are using doll heads attached in front of the cabin-facing camera to trick the Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (FSD) driver monitoring system. These heads, some resembling celebrities, simulate driver attention by appearing to look at the road, preventing distraction alerts. This method allows users to avoid system interruptions while engaging in other activities behind the wheel. Tesla measures driver attentiveness by tracking head and eye position, so a well-placed doll head can bypass this monitoring. This is one of several tactics drivers have employed to circu
- Doll heads fool interior camera into detecting driver attention.
- One driver used this method for 250 miles without distraction alerts.
🔎 Why it matters: Tesla’s driver monitoring system, relying on the interior camera tracking head and eye position, is susceptible to static objects like doll heads.
📈 Upside: Not applicable.
📉 Risk: Bypassing monitoring may lead drivers to be distracted while using Level 2 assistance features.
