Thought I'd share some thoughts after using the new "High Fidelity Parking Assist". I'll just bullet / list them. This is from a Model Y without USS.
1. It's clearly not 100% baked, but shows potential
2. Never assume the front view is accurate to inches
3. There are situations where the front visualization is way off -- you need to use your brain to detect those.
4. It doesn't "engage" as quickly as I'd like. Yes, it engages when in reverse automatically. I'm referring to forward parking.
5. Sometimes it "engages" when it shouldn't
6. It is useful in situations where parking lots are very full, such as cars on both sides. You absolutely can see if your Tesla is parallel or angled or not centered in the spot
7. Similar, it's very good when there are parking lines. Like above, you absolutely can see if your Tesla is parallel or angled or not centered in the spot
8. IMHO, it's fun to play with, giving some insight into what the vehicle actually sees. But I can understand some think it looks like trash.
Overall, my conclusion is that it's better than the previous Tesla vision. The distance numbers vision given (front) were so questionable with Vision, it's better to not show them. You can better estimate the distance using "High Fidelity Parking Assist" and your brains understanding of the environment.
While I'm not betting it will get any better, I'll cross my fingers it does!
I did make a couple videos showing it in action ("examples"). If you haven't seen them, take a look if interested.
(Sorry for the audio, I did the audio voice over in a room close to where lots of holiday music was playing using AirPods -- I'm no professional!)
