Can Tesla Eavesdrop on In-Car Recordings?
1 Answers
Unlike ordinary dash cams, Tesla's dash cam does not record sound. The relevant details are as follows: 1. Identity Verification: The in-car camera primarily serves two functions. First, it uses facial recognition to verify the driver's identity. More advanced versions can also match different drivers with their preferred settings, essentially functioning like a high-end smartphone's Face-ID. 2. Driving Assistance: The second main function is as part of the driving assistance system. When the in-car camera detects that the driver is drowsy, the system will issue an alert. This type of "fatigue monitoring" feature is also widely used in traditional car brands. Therefore, Tesla's in-car camera does not have audio recording capabilities.
