> People argue that humans don't really use our stereoscopic depth past ~10m or so and that's a fair point.

The second paper I reference in this comment https://news.ycombinator.com/edit?id=36232198 claims that humans can maintain stereopsis out to 250m.

That’s a huge difference from 10m & if true suggests that human drivers might well use 3D vision when driving.

I think I said this already in one of my comments but I'm not a neuroscientist and I don't claim to be. That's why I think it's kind of pointless and silly for me (or any other engineer) to sit here and make arguments about what humans do and don't do in their brains.

IMO it's better for us to focus on what the robots can and cannot do right now, and focus on solving those problems :)

Thanks for the sources though, those papers are definitely neat and I'll be taking a look when I get a chance.
