Tesla software version 9
Se video: Slik endrer Teslas nye programvare Model S og Model X
Ny programvare - «Version 9» rulles nå ut til alle med Tesla Model S og Model X. Det er den største endringen i programvaren på to år. Se video.
I Teslas elbiler kontrolleres det aller meste av bilens funksjoner via den store skjermen i midten av dashbordet.
Brukergrensesnittet her er gjennomtenkt, men ikke dermed uten oppgraderingsmuligheter. I Model 3 har Tesla gjort flere endringer i forhold til funksjoner og utseende.
Disse justeringene kommer nå eiere av Model S og Model X til gode.
Dagens programvare er versjon 8.1, og kom i mars 2017. Versjon 8.0 kom for øvrig i september 2016. Nesten to år senere er det altså klart for en oppjustering.
Den nye programvaren er «version 9» - versjon 9.
Bloggen Electrek publiserte i begynnelsen av september de første bildene av det nye grensesnittet. Bildene kom fra Jason Hughes, en datakyndig kilde som hentet ut grensesnittet basert på tidlig kode.
Kort tid etter bekreftet teslasjef Elon Musk at versjon 9 er like om hjørnet. Tesla starter utrullingen av programvaren den 5. oktober 2018. Oppdateringen rulles som vanlig ut pø om pø, slik at ikke alle får den samtidig.
Version 9.0 gir store endringer
Versjon 9 er forventet å bli den største endringen i programvaren til Tesla Model S og Model X på to år.
Tesla ruller ut version 9 litt om litt. En testgruppe har allerede fått tilgang til oppdateringen, og deler utgivelsesnotater, bilder og kommentarer på nettet. Tesla har nå publisert en rekke videoer som viser de nye endringene.
Nytt grensesnitt
Det nye grensesnittet går i samme retning som med Model 3, med vinduer som åpner seg innenfor et hovedvindu istedenfor at skjermen deler seg i to for hver sin applikasjon.
Menyen (application launcher) er nå flyttet ned til bunnen av skjermen, og det ser ut til at navigasjonskartet konstant utgjør hovedskjermen.
Grensesnittet for navigasjonen er også oppdatert, og skal nå tydeligere vise om det er kø på veien og hvilken avkjørsel du skal ta.
Mediespilleren er designet på nytt og har fått tre forskjellige alternativer:
- Minispiller: Viser bare det mest nødvendige.
- Siste og favoritter: Når du raskt vil skifte musikk
- Bla gjennom: Når du er på jakt etter ny musikk.
De tre forskjellige modusene aktiveres rett og slett ved å dra mediespillervinduet lenger opp på skjermen, som illustrert i videoen ovenfor.
Navigate on Autopilot (Beta)
Hughes fant en betafunksjon som ble kalt«Drive On Nav». Musk har sagt at sjåfører til syvende og sist skal kunne oppgi en adresse i navigasjonssystemet og at bilen selv finner fram dit. Tesla demonstrerte teknologien med en video allerede i 2016:
I den endelige versjonen av programvare 9.0 heter funksjonen «Navigate on Autopilot (Beta)» og synes i praksis å være «On Ramp/Off Ramp»-funksjonen som skulle vært med i «Oppgradert Autopilot». Funksjonen later i første omgang til å være begrenset til USA.
Atari-spill
Ved å klikke på Tesla-logoen på skjermen, og videre på Atari-logoen, kan du nå spille utvalgte, klassiske spill i bilen. Dersom bilen er parkert, kan du spill i fullskjerm.
Dashcam
For biler med Autopilot installert kan det innebygde kameraet over bakspeilet nå brukes som «dashcam».
Opptakene kan lagres på en USB-minnepinne.
Blindsonevarsler
Biler med Autopilot-maskinvare 2.0+ (fra ca. oktober 2016) får nå en blindsonevarsler. Tesla beskriver det slik:
To improve safety and increase confidence when changing lanes, the lane line on the instrument panel now turns red when your turn signal is engaged and a vehicle or obstacle is detected in your target lane.
Tettere integrasjon med mobil
Det blir nå mulig å gjøre flere ting med bilen fra mobilen, blant annet ser det ut til at kan du starte navigasjon via deling på mobilen. Og det trenger ikke å være Teslas egen app:
You can now start navigation in your car by using the share button in your favorite phone apps. In iOS, you can enable sharing to your vehicle by opening up the app you want to share from, tapping the More button in your sharing menu, and then scrolling to the right until you find your vehicle.
Det blir enklere å kontrollere media, som musikk, via mobilen, og du kan tillate passasjerer å kontrollere media fra sin mobil.
Tesla Software Version 9.0
Tesla har publisert følgende informasjon om Tesla Software Version 9.0 på sin offisielle blogg:
Our most substantial update yet, Software Version 9.0, introduces a refined and simplified user interface, along with entirely new features for Model S, Model X, and Model 3, as well as on Tesla’s mobile app.
To receive Version 9.0 as quickly as possible, connect your car to WiFi. Here’s an overview of what’s new:
Tesla Mobile App Updates
- Using the Tesla app, you can initiate a vehicle software update remotely without having to be in your car.
- Now, you can use your phone to send a destination to your car’s navigation. Simply use the “Share” button in your favorite map app.
- Passengers are now able to access Media controls from their mobile devices. Drivers can enable or disable this feature from their car’s center screen by going to Media Settings > Allow Mobile Control.
Dash Cam
- Model S, Model X, and Model 3 vehicles built with Hardware 2.5 (introduced in August 2017) now allow you to record and store video captured from the forward-facing camera when your car is in use. You will need to configure file formatting and allow for a minimum of 1.8 GB of free space on a flash drive. The drive should be inserted into a front row USB port.
- Tap the Dashcam icon to save 10-minute video clip, or, press and hold to pause recording.
New Apps & App Launcher
- For Model S, Model X and Model 3, the new application launcher brings all your apps together in one place, including your Calendar, Energy, Web Browser, Rear View Camera, Phone and Charging apps. You can also access your last-used app by swiping upward on the app launcher, and you can dismiss the current app by swiping downward.
- Three new apps for Model 3 bring web-browsing capabilities, calendar integration with your mobile device, and the ability to monitor energy consumption in real-time or view the projected energy use for an upcoming trip.
Updated Climate Controls
- You can now access controls for cold weather features in Model S and Model X, including rear seat heaters, steering wheel heater, and wiper heater all in one place. You can also press and hold to turn climate on or off without needing to open the full climate menu.
- In Model 3, you can easily adjust the temperature with one touch by simply swiping across the temperature control setting to the left or right. A new 3D visualization of the dashboard shows you exactly how air is flowing into the cabin, and allows you to precisely direct the channels of air.
Navigate on Autopilot (coming soon)
- With Software Version 9.0, we’ll be expanding our existing suite of Autopilot features with future over-the-air updates and all-new functionality in the coming months.
- Our most advanced Autopilot feature ever, Navigate on Autopilot is an active guidance feature that, with driver supervision, guides a car from a highway’s on-ramp to off-ramp, including suggesting lane changes, navigating highway interchanges and taking exits. It’s designed to make finding and following the most efficient path to your destination even easier on the highway when Autopilot is in use.
- Once a destination is entered into the navigation, drivers can choose to enable “Navigate on Autopilot” for that trip, and the feature is then activated when Autosteer is engaged via the normal prompt on the cruise control stalk (Model S and Model X) or gear selector stalk (Model 3). When a lane change is suggested, drivers must confirm that they’re ready by tapping the turn signal (for Model S and Model X, the turn signal or cruise control stalk). Drivers can continue to use Autosteer and other Enhanced Autopilot features without Navigate on Autopilot anytime they choose to.
- With Software 9.0, Navigate on Autopilot will initially be released in Shadow Mode – a dormant logging-only mode which lets us validate the performance of the feature in the background based on millions of miles of real-world driving. Once validation is complete, we will introduce Navigate on Autopilot as a beta feature to customers in the U.S. Navigate on Autopilot will be introduced in other markets in the future pending validation and regulatory approval.
Full 360° View
- Now, all eight external cameras from our Full Self-Driving hardware in every Model S, Model X and Model 3 are active, enabling better situational awareness on the road with a 360-degree visualization of surrounding vehicles.
- Blind spot monitoring, which previously relied solely on the ultrasonic sensors, now uses the side and rear facing cameras to detect vehicles and displays them on-screen. When the turn signal is activated and a vehicle is detected in your blind spot, the lane line shown in the on-screen visualization turns red.
- New classes of vehicles are displayed, including bikes/motorcycles, light duty trucks and heavy-duty trucks, to provide drivers with a more complete understanding of their surroundings.
- The 360-degree visualization also shows vehicles in adjacent lanes, even when they’re behind or far ahead of your Tesla, and multiple lanes to each side of your car are now visible.
Enhanced Navigation Routing
- The turn-by-turn directions shown on Model S and Model X touchscreens now provide more information about upcoming turns, including highway exit information. Your next navigation step is always prominently displayed, and to see complete route details during a trip, simply tap or pull down on the navigation panel.
- In Model 3, turn-by-turn directions have been moved to the left side of the touchscreen and are simplified to display relevant upcoming information, including highway exits. Tap or pull down to see additional details in the full Trip Overview.
- You can now select whether or not your car is eligible for high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes, allowing our navigation system to more efficiently route you.
Obstacle-Aware Acceleration
- If an obstacle is detected in the path of your vehicle while driving at low speeds (i.e. while parking), full acceleration is reduced in order to help prevent drivers from accidentally accelerating. This feature can be enabled or disabled in Controls > Autopilot.
Fun & Games
- While Tesla cars are known to be fun to drive, they’re now even more fun while in ‘Park.’ Classic arcade games from Atari are now discoverable as hidden Easter Eggs. If you can find them, your car becomes a game console with controls on the touchscreen and steering wheel. Happy hunting!
Every single Model S, Model X and Model 3 ever built will receive new features and improvements from Software Version 9.0. This is just the latest reminder that when you own a Tesla, you own a car that will only get better over time.
