[Lucid Dreams]

Lucid shared an email earlier today that had some info about Dream Drive, their advanced driver assistance technology

1. It has up to a whopping 32 sensors

DreamDrive has one of the most comprehensive sensor suites available, with up to 32 sensors — including the latest vision, radar, ultrasonic, and LIDAR technology.

2. It’s one of the only EVs with LIDAR and driver monitoring

Along with driver monitoring features to help you stay alert, Lucid Air also has the option for the highest-resolution LIDAR available (125-beam equivalent). So it sees things the human eye can’t, and is future-ready for what’s next.

3. It offers up to 36 driver assistance features (and counting)

DreamDrive has remarkable features that make driving Air a delight like Surround View Monitoring, Park In and Out, Front Cross Traffic Protection, and more. And it only gets better with over-the-air updates that keep your Air on the cutting edge.

4. It uses spatial alerts to help improve safety

DreamDrive takes advantage of Surreal Sound, Lucid Air’s available 21-speaker system, so alerts are delivered directionally. That means when bringing attention to something on your left, the alert comes from that side of the car.

5. It’s incredibly intuitive at every turn

Thanks to the elegant Lucid User Experience, interacting with DreamDrive feels effortless. You can activate its Highway Assist features with touch controls on the steering wheel or use the toggle for other controls.

Is this a hardware option that must be ordered up front? Can it be added later?

 

[Mata Hari]

Yes it is and no it cannot.

 

[dmscafetta]

THANKS for the info. Can I ask for your source for your answer?

Thanks, Dom

 

[Mata Hari]

Saw it in another discussion.

Anyone know if the Dream Drive Pro OPTION is a hardware...

Anyone know if the Dream Drive Pro OPTION is a hardware OPTION? My Advisor told me Dream Drive Pro is a hardware option that cannot be added later. Is this true? Sounds fishy to me...

These are mostly future promises. Hopefully they will be fulfilled and not like Tesla's promises. And they are for Dream Drive Pro, not Dream Drive.

Yes, and it is very annoying to use!!! So many bells and whistles so it whistles all the time. Every 10 seconds it complains that you didn't nudge the wheel enough or that you didn't watch the road, both wrong, distracting, and making the driving experience unfitting to a car that cost >100k. And on top of that, the most sophisticated algorithm is lane keeping??? Sorry, the Dream Drive is more a nightmare drive.

And one more thing, the surreal sound is not even that great. I never noticed that the directionality of these annoying alarms. I am not impressed and not very happy.

It's a bit inexplicable that folks are ok in paying a 10k premium for an option that may or may not finally be as it should. I drove a BMW i4 recently and the 'Driver Assistance Pro' was excellent. No pulling me off the road or erratic steering.
Why is it taking +++ years to get this functioning as it should?

It is obvious that Lucid is having a lot of trouble in the software department and this appears to be a major problem for Lucid. All the owners that are bitching about Lucid here in the Forum (like myself) are disappointed owners that give Lucid a well deserved bad name. Under such circumstances it will be very hard for Lucid to get on track to success.
