I just got an update (45 minutes estimate) that should be installing now, for "OS 4.1.0", and it mentions all kinds of steering assist updates. Could this be some sort of Level 2 self driving? The description certainly read that way, but there was a caveat that it wouldn't apply to all vehicles.

I was low on time, so I didn't take screenshots. I also assumed this would already be posted here, but I can't find anything.

Has anyone else seen this?

 

in europe it's rolling out already, just tweaks for steering.

 

But is this new functionality? My car doesn't do automatic steering.

 

OS Release 4.1.0
Pivi Pro 4.1.0

In this release our Driving Assistance and Vehicle Dynamics teams have created a number of improvements to the performance of a number of vehicle control systems and consequently enhanced the vehicle’s refinement.

Adaptive Cruise Control with Steering Assist/ Lane Keep Assist:
(Please note: Not all of the below improvements are applicable to vehicles with only Lane Keep Assist)
– Smoother assisted steering for road layouts which include direction changes, lanes splitting and road marking transitions. Image processing improvements for surface estimation.

– Calibration updates improving lane corridor quality & consistency, resulting in smoother steering through corners.

– Improved determination of road edges.

– Several line geometry related image processing refinements to help avoid false positives.

– Improvements when managing cross junctions with no lane markings.

Emergency Braking:
– General performance refinements.

Traffic Sign Recognition:
– General improvement in sign recognition.

Auto High Beam Assist:
– Oncoming vehicle detection refinements to help avoid unintended dazzling of oncoming drivers.

Electric Power Assisted Steering:
– Improvements to steering feedback.

Vehicle Dynamics:
– Off-road handling, general suspension & body control refinement (Range Rover & Range Rover Sport only).

Please Note: Availability of features can vary by vehicle specification, model years and markets.

 

So will we have auto steering within lanes now?

 

No. The release notes are generic and this is one of the exceptions.

 

I wonder if 4.0 is needed to get this update.

I'm still on 3.3.2 after my last update vanished after repeated failed installs.

lane assist as it currently sits is unusable and a real driver hindrance. Would be nice to see LR keep up with much more basic vehicles in this regard.

 

I updated today to 4.1.0

The defender totally drives itself now, its amazing. I sent it to Whole Foods earlier. Love it

 

Even after opening a ticket with LRNA, then going to the dealer to have issues fixed to supposedly allow updates to take, I still see nothing. Are there obvious changes I should see for 3.x, 4.x ?

 

Just got the update request for my v8 so I’ll install it tonight. I’ll check if the v6 is also ready for install but it’s usually a few weeks behind the other.
