I just have to say that I shot everything and I mean everything with the iPhone 15 Pro and the Pro Max. This is absolutely fantastic as a content creator because you can capture so much around you and still use that device for everything. Now I love the fact that I didn't have to pack any of my gear like my Sony camera so which means I just took of course carry on luggage. Even though my luggage got stuck through the conveyor belt here at TSA, well who knows why, the reason given. But being able to just use the photo of my hand to capture the zoom lenses are great for of course the zoom action. And using it just concurrently is nice. So I had the 15 Pro Max, Daniel had the 15 Pro and we're using conjunction to just kind of capture everything in this video here to get the best content possible. And you guys know we are going to go check out an awesome vehicle from Mercedes and some really new tech. Now if you join us for the first time this is Thunder E from Border Work. Go ahead smash that subscribe button notification icon so you can watch more videos like this. So we're about to board the plane and getting there to see Mercedes and luckily we were flying business class though. I have never flown in seats like this from United honestly guys just just change it. You know it's a bit weird kind of jumping over people just so you can use the bathroom. That being said though I love airports. I love planes. I am an AFG even though I don't really mention it. And I enjoy that just flying experience overall. Okay on this side note what is up with LAX? Why is it such a messy airport? I mean it's hard to go from terminal to terminal. It's hard to find anything and there's a lot of traffic. So anyone who lives in LA please tell me why is LAX so bad. Anyway back to Mercedes. Mercedes invited us over here to check out the drive pilot system. This is a level 3 autonomous self driving system. It is actually considered conditional autonomous self driving. Which is quite interesting to see and it's something that you will see in action and you will go out while this is pretty cool. Nobody has a level 3 self driving. Does it give you some background what level 3 entails? It's conditional meaning that it gets into certain conditions. And for Mercedes this has to do when you are driving under 40 miles per hour during traffic. Yes just bear that in mind. Now keep that aside for a second. I got to talk about hotel room. This is a proper hotel. I've stayed there in Austin. Here's one in Santa Monica. I love the fact that this room had so much space. I had an area to take off my shoes. There's like closet area. It's big. It's a big entryway area to hotel room. So that was pretty dope. Massive mirror down the right. And then you've got of course massive shower, bathroom all together. Really nice and slick. I love the styling of what the proper hotel does. Just a nice foot. You would have forwarded well. Which is pretty nice. Badging hand and this is the vehicle we'll be driving. It is the EQS 450 plus. Now drive pilot is available in the S class as well as the EQS as well. And you see those torque whistle lights around the car. That indicates to drivers around you that you're in self driving mode. You're in the conditional self driving mode. Which is great. I love the fact that when to be a specific color that's different from the red brick lights to indicate drivers that yes you are the car driving itself. Now I am about to get into the vehicle. And we're about to take this show on the road. Now one thing though is I love the EQS interior. One of the best. I love the massive screens across this. And they put the screen into good use. Now before you use drive pilot, you must watch the video giving you an explanation of what it does, how it functions and how you actually get to use drive pilot. Now speaking of that, what are the general rules of drive pilot itself? Well, it's got an operation design domain. An operational design domain or ODD. I like to call it JJK's domain expansion. And the essential rules that must be meant like traffic jams up to 40 miles per hour, a vehicle in front of you, good road conditions, reasonable weather lighting conditions, HD map available as well. Now once all does a done you hit the button when you're steering wheel, it turns white. And then you go ahead and hit the OK button on the left hand side. It turns 12 and you are in self driving mode. Now you can go hands off, eyes off and you are good to go. It's a fun experience. It's a bit weird. But you can see this traffic. It's not it's not slow traffic, but it's about maybe 35 to 40 miles per hour. The cars keep you up. It's watching cars that change your lane in there. It allows me to do other things. The system is built so I can watch a video. I can go in and watch a YouTube video like the iPhone, fish, new pro max gaming video. Go watch that. And you can see how free it is to just not to do anything. Now the one thing is that you cannot close your eyes because the set is a sense in front once you do. It goes off drive pilot mode and basically tries to get you to take control of it. Now the way Mercedes has this is that the drive pilot system itself is really set for those conditions that I mentioned. But it allows me to go ahead and play video games in the car and win. But that's just really impressive seeing that this can actually do that. A couple of things to note. Mercedes basically says they take full responsibility ability for anything that happens while the car is in drive pilot mode. So well, it's self driving the owners of responsibility passes from you to the vehicle, which is Mercedes. So I really like the fact that they'd be very confident about this. Plus the system has been already been available in Germany for about a year with zero incidents. And they are happy to see it come to the US. It's going to be available currently in California and in Nevada. There's the two states that drive pilot will be available in the two vehicles. I mentioned the EQS range as well as the S class line. Plus its pricing is 2500 for the year in terms of what you are paying for a drive pilot. And it will be constantly updated for traffic revelations, traffic rules as also as well as software updates that you would expect. I find it really impressive. And I like this step that Mercedes is taking into self driving because it allows you to put it in conditions that make a lot of sense. If you're going to be spending like 30 or 40 minutes in traffic every single day going to work, this is awesome. It means you can go ahead and do other things in the car. Now you can't sleep because the system will realize that and the seatbelt would jerk and basically try to wake you up forcing you to take control of the vehicle again. The thing I do like about it is that if any of those systems are not met and say for instance you are having a seizure or a heart attack or some kind of element in the car, the car will recognize that you do something wrong with you. Slow down and come to complete stop, turn on the hazard lights and then call for emergency assistance. So again, that's also building to some of the safety features that drive pilot has. Let me know what you guys think about Mercedes level three autonomous self driving with drive pilot. What do you guys think? Leave your thoughts down below and did you enjoy this video that was shot entirely with the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max? Let me know.
