Tesla’s recently released FSD Beta V9 self-driving beta software update has some major improvements compared to the previous version. One of these is the driving visualization improvement, and it can now even render dogs and more interestingly the taillights of the surrounding cars.

As we can see in the screenshot of the FSD Beta V9 driving visualization on a busy road above, the Tesla vehicle is able to detect which car has its brake pedal pressed at the moment. In the video below, we can see as soon as the brake pedal is released (red warning taillamp turns off), the Full Self-Driving Autopilot vision turns the light off in the visuals on screen.

This is a step-change improvement that will help the Autopilot software in determining the intent of the drivers around the vehicle.

Woah!!! Tesla vision is now capturing and seeing the tail lights on other cars. Watch the tail lights go from lit up red when the cars are stopped back to grey when they take off! Another great variable for calculating intent of others on the road! @elonmusk @tesla pic.twitter.com/AGAd2iWCnO
