US transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg on Monday said human
drivers must pay attention at all times after videos emerged of
people wearing what appeared to be Apple’s recently released Vision
Pro headset while driving Teslas.
Buttigieg responded on Twitter/X to a video that had more than 24m
views of a Tesla driver who appeared to be gesturing with his hands
to manipulate a virtual reality field.
Despite their names, Tesla’s assisted driving features – Autopilot,
Enhanced Autopilot and Full Self-Driving – do not mean the vehicles
are fully autonomous, Buttigieg said Monday on social media.
“Reminder – ALL advanced driver assistance systems available today
require the human driver to be in control and fully engaged in the
driving task at all times,” Buttigieg said.
Apple’s Vision Pro was released last week and blends three-
dimensional digital content with a view of the outside world. Apple,
which says people should never use it while operating a moving
vehicle, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The Vision Pro was revealed in June as a headset that allows users
to interact with “apps and experiences” in an augmented reality (AR)
version of their own surroundings or in a fully immersive virtual
reality (VR) space, said Alan Dye, Apple vice-president of human
interface design.
“Apple Vision Pro relies solely on your eyes, hands and voice,” Dye
said in June. “You browse the system simply by looking. App icons
come to life when you look at them; simply tap your fingers together
to select, and gently flick to scroll.”
“Apple Vision Pro will change the way we communicate, collaborate,
work and enjoy entertainment,” Apple executive Tim Cook said.
However, the company never intended the Vision Pro to change the way
people commute.
Tesla did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
Buttigieg has made similar comments previously about the use of
Tesla’s autopilot. Tesla says its advanced driver features are
intended for use with a fully attentive driver “who has their hands
on the wheel and is prepared to take over at any moment”.
