Tesla Ideas Safety

The idea is simple: if the car is bumped or moved, enable Sentry Mode.

If a sentry mode break in event is triggered, then capture video using the in-cabin camera as well.

A great enhancement to sentry mode would to enable the car to push notifications to your phone when motion is detected similar to a ring doorbell. When you click the notification it then streams the video feed to your phone. Along with the new speaker in front, you can also talk to the possible suspect from your phone.

USB stick seems so 90s. Would be nice when I get home on home wifi that it uploads X number of last (or all) entries. And let's be able to use gdrive or Dropbox etc.

For the majority, this won't seem like a real risk - it's never happened to you right? For others it's merely a sensible precaution and for very few of us (I hope!) it's a feature that has saved us from some "difficulty."

When parked, this vehicle would greatly increase security be angling to rear cameras on each side to catch license plates and pedestrians that pass by. This is greatly beneficial as home surveillance systems and parking lots cannot capture this angle that appears to be the most important for identification of A$$holes breaking stuff. (I have been involved in security for years and this idea alone would had led to catching... more »
