Part 3/10:
The crux of Tesla’s innovations lies in its ability to replace software-centric processes that inherently introduce latency — sometimes running milliseconds slow — with hardware implementations that promise to operate on a microsecond level. By utilizing elegant state machines, Tesla's patents allow for real-time interactions between multiple nodes, ensuring minimal delay and optimal performance.
The core principle of the presented system involves a hardware link timer that checks whether to maintain or terminate connections, and a replay mechanism within hardware itself to resend data when necessary. This shift from a software-oriented approach to a hardware-based execution enhances efficiency and minimizes latency significantly.
