EETimes Junko Yoshida publishes an explanation of Mobileye self-driving car demo where the car passes a junction on red light:
"The public AV demo in Jerusalem inadvertently allowed a local TV station’s video camera to capture Mobileye’s car running a red light. (Fast-forward the video to 4:28 for said scene.)
According to Mobileye, the incident was not a software bug in the car. Instead, it was triggered by electromagnetic interference (EMI) between a wireless camera used by the TV crew and the traffic light’s wireless transponder. Mobileye had equipped the traffic light with a wireless transponder — for extra safety — on the route that the AV was scheduled to drive in the demo. As a result, crossed signals from the two wireless sources befuddled the car. The AV actually slowed down at the sight of a red light, but then zipped on through."
