Realtalk drive with the new Comma Three! 

Love this Britt.. Thanks for sharing All this information. 🥰

Constant driver monitoring sounds like a great idea

Impressive and hopefully in the future most ppl use this tech, it’s definitely great support for long trips

Nice video! You have a great understanding of the system and did a great job sharing for others! I have the C2 installed on my Rav4 Hybrid running Shane's fork and with some help from Erich to get me a SDSU and I love the system. It has been 100% worth the time and effort to learn and get it all setup how I like. I *do wish that Comma would integrate some sort of behind the scenes mapping, even if its not navigating, just to help with very obvious curves and turns where it could slow down just a bit and maintain control. Without the lead vehicle there my car would just drive me off the freeway overpass, lol. My C2 has driven my Rav a significant portion of my drive from Houston, TX all the way up to Boise, ID and back! Amazing technology. Whenever I show this setup to people who don't know what it is they are usually blown away. "It drives like a Tesla!" :D

Thank goodness for custom forks. I found I wasn't using OP much on the official branch but after finding one with no disengage on brake/gas, I was using it all the time.

Great video, good talk. I'm using Comma2 main fork, I think I'm going to try out Shane's fork. I like a little more aggressive following distance as well.

I have a 2017 Prius prime - going to get this for my car, can’t wait! Was wondering if you found the ACC of the C3 better than the stock ACC?

Another great video, thanks for sharing. If Toyota got on board with Android Auto much earlier in the game, I probably would have never gotten into (and out of) the Accord. It's unfortunate that with all the talk about higher steering torque in Toyotas, you still have to help it through so many curves. I did not expect to see that. Furiously changing the set speed by 1 MPH per click is also unattractive. Would be nice to see Comma let you hold it for 5 MPH increments. Maybe Shane's fork reinstated that, I don't know. I really appreciate the video, though. I enjoyed the discussion. Oh, and your center console is growing on me. The car just needs more steering torque and no SDSU.

Re: speech for navigation, I heard george say in a an interview (multiple times) that he would never add voice/speech to the device, he seemed quite adamant... lol

It's an interesting consideration - the more aggressive drivers cutting in due to longer follow distance. I'd like to see some metrics on whether or not that decreases or increases your net safety overall. One could argue that you'd rather more aggressive drivers overtake you and become someone else's problem, instead of following you close behind and potentially rear-ending you in an emergency. Yes, them getting irritated and aggressively cutting in front of you increases risk, but is it a net risk win or loss since they're now ahead of you and not your problem anymore? This reflects my own driving style and I believe it increases my safety, and I have no qualms irritating aggressive drivers if it makes me safer.

heh, they got it backwards I think with the accel/braking @/to stoppage. I don't mind coming to a stop slowly/earlier (beginning to brake sooner, rather, and being smooth). Helps you coast up/to stale lights and right on thru them when cabbies are racing to/fro stop-lights.... The accel tho you are right, needs to have MUCH faster reaction time and bleed lead distance in quickly. When I did my driving school, two things stuck with me, the 'S' maneuver (to see oncoming traffic when turning left @ intersection w/ medians on either side) and 'MELT' - minimum eye lead time, they (young drivers) say ~3 second MELT is appropriate follow distance. I do ~2-2.5 but ~3 is safe, and some times this build of openpilot looking like 3-5 seconds of MELT, lol... MELT calc should be very easy with comma 3, say a light post or stop sign or reflective post on side of road, begin timer when car in front passes and stop when you hit it (front bumper reaches perpendicular 'line' from object intersecting roadway). Idk, just my $0.02 P.S digging teh wheelspin @ lights, lol :P

Nice video! If you could show us all the steps from beginning to ending of a trip navigated by the comma would be nice. Really wanted to see how it handle city speed limits.

Hi, thanks for the video. I have a Prius prime 2020 as well. I have a couple of questions. I noticed the beep and you having to steer a bit on the curves, is it because of the lack of steering torque with the in built LDA? You mentioned disconnecting DSU (no clue what DSU is) in order to for the system to use the built in auto braking and Radar CC with acceleration. Do I need to buy something in addition to Comma3 and the wiring harness in order for it make complete use of vertical controls? It looks super tempting. Congrats on your setup!

Still liking it after a year? I’m on the edge of getting my first one.

Hi. How is the Comma open pilot working for you these days? I'm concerned about the longevity. thanks

I worked for AP and just purchased ,3. It's not too far from AP in terms of what it's functionally capable of. Yes, stop signs, lines, pedestrians, etc are a different case entirely, it looks like OP does much better than AP does in rain

Personally, I keep that kind of distance, even if people behind me get angry; and if they tailgate I slow down.

Just wondering if you did the safety recall on your 2022 prime. This is the recall number Safety Recall 21TA07 (Remedy Notice), Certain 2022 Model Year Prius and Prius Prime Vehicles, Vehicle May Lose Motive Power While Driving Wondering if your C3 had any problems after they updated it?

Is it true that if I install Comma 3X to my car, Prius 2022, the auto hold feature can be used while I manually drive the car?

I'd be run off the road if I couldn't use custom forks. 8 bus-lengths is not an acceptable follow distance, Comma should know this by now.

Year and model of Prius? I am still running an Eon on 0.7.1 and noticed you are uncomfortable with OpenPilots aggressive braking when a car is at a light in front of you. I bought the C3 but have not installed it yet, but bought it based on George's mention that this specific condition was solved with a better camera seeing the car at the light further out during the unveil of C3. For my use of Comma, this was a huge selling point. Comments?

Planning to buy this, have the 2017 Prius Prime, how well does this do with Pure EV mode enabled? Right now I control acceleration manually to get the best mileage, will this accelerate fast if someone in front of me going quick?

Which camera mount you use?

Hi, I am impressed by your video and how well Comma 3 performs. And cheaper than Tesla’s autopilot too! Can I ask if your car has adaptive cruise control and if Comma three relies on the radar sensor for keeping a safe distance from the car in front?

Any updates?

other than not having to hold the steering wheel when on cruise control. how is it different to other cars with adapative cruise control and lane departure/steering assist features? looking to get comma 3 soon.

Do other forks work on the 3, I heard that it was limited on some fork support.

Are you ready to upgrade to a custom fork yet just wondering if there’s anything out there this video is eight months old

Do you ever answer questions I have a few? Do you have any dash Errors from disconnecting your DSU Are you running a SDSU

Does a comma 3 able to use with Toyata cross Y2021?

I’m a bit confused. I watched the one hour and 12 minute video on the Comma three introduction. It seems like at some points he says their plan is to only develop a level two system, and then he talks about getting level five.

Can it auto stop at red light or stop sign?

If you need to be more aggressive with the start switch to sport mode

Anyone know if this works with a vehicle that’s undergone an ev conversion? Looking to maybe get new vehicle and give it a Tesla swap and add this on top.

55mph in a 35mph? 70 mph in a 55mph? pushing the boundaries huh?

that flashing screen though...
