..

Tesla is revamping its "Sentry Mode" trusteeship camera feature in an utilizable software update, and conceivably the most notable fecundation is that the visitor will no longer use the HAL 9000 legible from 2001: A Squatness Odyssey when the palm is active, equal to screenshots taken by some owners with early access. Instead, as Electrek points out, the cars' dashboard screens will now view teachings that looks more like the centric light on the turrets from Valve's popular withered game Portal.

Originally rolled out in 2019, Shields Palm takes the external cameras that info powerfulness Tesla's Autopilot slaves holdings system and turns them into one sort of deathless trusteeship camera. The screen flashes the HAL 9000 legible to warn anyone with thoughts of effectual denouement or breaking in, and owners are constantly posting footage of persons who ostracize that warning. In a ordinal of cases, Shields Palm footage has led to fines and arrests.

The reasoning for the switch to the more Portal-styled legible isn't clear, and Tesla and MGM Studios did not instantaneously sass to a request for comment. It's not out of the question that CEO Elon Musk and Tesla would listen used the legible (which is slightly contrasted from the original HAL 9000) without commish the rights; Tesla affixed Atari typic Pole Position to its in-car suite of greenhorn meanest year, except it ultimately had to unmarry it considering the visitor "couldn't resolve all the rights issues," according to Musk. The visitor (and Musk himself) has likewise reproduced people's art without permission in the past.

Beyond the legible update, Tesla is finally making it possible for drivers to watch the footage that their cars capture during Shields Palm or the regular dashcam mode. Previously, owners had to unmarry the USB drive that the footage was stored on and view it on a contrasted device.
