The researchers placed the equipment on a cart in front of the Tesla to simulate another vehicle.
When theres jamming, the car disappears, and theres no warning, Prof. Xu says.
The ultra-sonic sensors are a lot easier to target, although at lower speeds.
If they had let it, the Tesla would collide with the obstacles.
However, the Teslas camera systems were the most resistant to attacks.
to make it blind the cameras, the researchers shined lasers and LEDs at them.
Also, Xus team was able to kill a few pixels on the camera sensors.
These attacks actually require some skills, Xu told Wired.
[Tesla] need to think about adding detection mechanisms as well.
