During Amazon Prime days we spent a lot of money on business supplies. I jokingly asked my wife to purchase the glasses seen below for an experiment.

They came in and I was convinced that the cybertruck would NOT allow me to drive with these on. Well, I was wrong! I went to a safe place and had a driver next to me acing as look out. If any other cars came on the road we instantly stopped our experiment. I do NOT EVER RECCOMMEND CLOSING YOUR EYES FOR ANY PERIOD OF TIME WHILE IN FSD!!!! Here is what we found:

With the glasses on the car will enter FSD and drive. Even with my eyes closed the car would drive. I had assumed that the lack of blinking would eventually cause the vehicle to trigger a warning... that does not appear to be the case.

This may have ben a known issue for those of you who have had Self Driving before... to me it was a novel experience.

great test! and I appreciate you adding the disclaimer.

I would use the "report bug" feature so tesla can train the attention monitoring algorithm on these types of glasses.

test this next: relax your posture as if you were starting to fall asleep in the driver's seat (mouth partly open, make fake snore, droop your head slightly to the side, and whatever else). See if it catches you with several steering wheel nags.

I actually did that. The car seemed to not mind... Now there was a point where if my "eyes" appeared to be staring at the computer screen that it would absolutely flash blue and and give you the standard look at the road warnings, but by and large the glasses seemed to defeat the safety feature. I can't imagine I am the first one to figure this out, but I will definitely report the "bug."

FSD Unsupervised is literally unusable for me if I am not wearing my prescription progressive glasses or Amazon 0-3 progressive readers (almost the same thing). I thought everyone did this or used sunglasses?

WIthout glasses I can be staring straight ahead with both hands on the wheel and it will start blue flashing saying pay attention, and will strike me, nothing I can do to stop it.

I hope they never change this or I would not be able to use unsupervised FSD at all. I guess it doesn't like my eye color, or eye lashes or something, but for SH&T sure it cannot read my eyes without glasses tricking it. Totally unusable w/o glasses.

Did you by chance also have your hands on the wheel (applying torque as in to satisfy the old steering wheel lag)? I may be wrong about this but I believe if the eye detector cannot see your eyes - like even if you taped up the eye camera - you can use FSD but it will default to the steering wheel nag. I haven’t tried this recently so things may have changed.

This works with regular sunglasses that obscure the the eyes so I’m not sure of the point here.
The attention monitoring algorithm goes into a separate subroutine when glasses are detected; and it tends to place more weight on the positioning of your head rather than exact positioning of your eye/pupils (because they are of course occluded). In this sub-routine, steering wheel nags appear more often.

Wonder what would happen if you did a glasses frame "delete" by making them skin color

The AI doesn't seem to recognize when my eyes are closed even with regular polarized sunglasses on. Does yours?

No steering wheel touching was required.
