minus-squareDurandal@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·9 months agoOh absolutely not. Just mentioning it in reference to the way the KITT yoke looks. TBF KITT could self drive just fine so he didn’t need a very functional “wheel” heh.
minus-squareMartin@feddit.nulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·9 months agoThose are way more sensitive so there is no need to turn hand over hand. The downside is that that sensitivity can be really hard to handle at high speeds.
minus-squareanlumo@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·9 months agoCouldn’t the sensitivity be adjusted based on the speed? Doing a hard turn during high speed is a very bad idea anyways.
minus-squareMartin@feddit.nulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·9 months agoYes it could and that is what Lexus is doing. https://youtu.be/agMrewRJTow?si=_M55DbNd3I4uUvMu But Tesla is not doing that, so there you still have to turn hand over hand even though you don’t have a round wheel.
