Yes, 10 years after the initial announcement, Tesla has just now got around to ordering some LIDARs for capturing ground-truth training data.

What's the source that they haven't ordered from Luminar previously? They have definitely used Lidar test rigs for years.
See sibling comment, this wouldn't be a first time occurance.
