Just discovered this recently and it might sway my next vehicle decision.

Has anyone tried this out in Calgary recently?

(about 1500$)

openpilot performs the functions of Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Automated Lane Centering (ALC) for compatible vehicles. It performs similarly to Tesla Autopilot and GM Super Cruise. openpilot can steer, accelerate, and brake automatically for other vehicles within its lane

openpilot works by taking the radar data integrated with supported car models and combining it with the camera built into comma hardware, to determine what acceleration, braking, and steering events are required.

No, it doesn't perform similarly to Autopilot or Super Cruise.

Even Autopilot doesn't perform similarly to Super Cruise, came in a "distant second": https://www.cnbc.com/2020/10/28/gms-super-cruise-tops-teslas-autopilot-in-consumer-reports-testing.html

Yes. I think GM is acknowledged as the leader in autonomous driving right now.

“Vehicle has combined automated functions, like acceleration and steering, but the driver must remain engaged with the driving task and monitor the environment at all times.”

ie - level 2 , just like this product

Follow them over the years but self driving based Oneplus phone under the sun is probably a cool project but not nearly reliable enough or elegant enough of a solution for daily.
