Baidu's driverless taxi service was officially opened

At the 217 conference, Li Yanhong visited the Fifth Ring Road in Beijing on an unmanned vehicle, which attracted many people's attention and received the world's first driverless ticket. ? Today, Baidu driverless taxi ApolloRobotaxi has indeed opened in Beijing. ? Beijing officially opened the self-driving taxi service, and Beijing consumers can make an appointment to experience Robotaxi's service on Baidu map and Apollo official website. ? The total length of self-driving manned vehicles opened in Beijing this time is about 7 kilometers, covering nearly 1 stations such as Haidian, test area, Shunyi life circle and business circle.

The significance of unmanned driving in Beijing

However, taxis with L4-level self-driving have been tested and put into use all over the world, and Changsha is not the first early adopter city. ? As early as Changsha, Hunan, Baidu had already provided driverless taxi service in two cities, Hebei and Beijing, and citizens could directly call Apollorobotaxi from Baidu map. ? The value of official opening in Beijing is undoubtedly more phased.

autonomous driving is closer to our life

Recently, the autonomous driving company Wenyuan Zhixing confirmed to start the trial operation service of autonomous taxis in Huangpu District and Guangzhou Development Zone, Guangzhou. ? After obtaining the first batch of 2 driving test licenses in Guangzhou in June, Gaode reached a cooperation with Wen Yuan Zhixing, an autonomous driving company. Guangzhou is still open to driving test, and manned tests can be carried out after the autonomous driving companies in Guangzhou reach a certain standard. ? Compared with manned test service, unmanned driving has been widely used in freight transportation, and it has gone faster and further

For example, the unmanned physical distribution project in the factory arranged by Yushi Technology and SAIC-GM-Wuling in its Baojun base has started normal operation, and the transportation routes cover the physical distribution of final assembly, engine, stamping and body. ? This line was completed, and finally the bus lines in Shenzhen were driven by unmanned buses.

technology makes autonomous driving a reality, and the future is truly driverless. ? According to CCTV reports, on the Jingxiong Expressway (the two lanes inside are unmanned lanes), unmanned construction machinery clusters were used for the first time in some sections, and the unmanned intelligent equipment clusters consisting of three pavers and six rollers completed the paving and compaction of expressway fixed soil.

the strategy of vehicle-road coordination

National enterprise credit information publicity system In the future, Didi will promote relevant autopilot tests in Beijing with the help of new companies. ? In 222, L4 and L5 mobile autonomous driving services were completed, and L3 to L5 smart driving cars will be officially released in 225. ? In order to ensure the safety of autonomous driving and reduce unknown unsafe areas, he hopes to closely integrate autonomous vehicles with urban roads. The Strategy points out that by 225, roadside equipment, such as vehicle-road coordination and V2X (vehicle wireless communication) equipment, will support the safe driving of vehicles.

Six levels of auto-driving

It should be clear that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released the draft for approval of the recommended national standard of Auto-driving Automation Classification in official website, which included the classification definition of auto-driving technology, and it was only released the day before the live broadcast, that is, the Recommended National Standard for Auto-driving Automation Classification published by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology 39. ? This standard stipulates the classification principles and technical requirements of automobile driving automation system, and divides automobile automatic driving into six grades to provide support for the development of intelligent networked vehicles. Just as Baidu driverless taxi ApolloRobotaxi was opened in Beijing, according to CCTV reports, Beijing seems to have identified the large-scale operation of high-level self-driving vehicles above L4 level, and planned to build the world's first L4-level self-driving demonstration zone by coordinating all kinds of high-quality elements such as vehicles, roads, clouds, networks and maps.

Vehicle-road coordination improves the overall safety of self-driving cars

Changsha is also the first in China, enabling intelligent internet lanes to conduct batch manned tests of self-driving passenger cars based on vehicle-road coordination. ? In September last year, the Changsha Demonstration Zone for Intelligent Driving on Open Roads was officially put into trial in Xiangjiang New District. Changsha became the first city in China to carry out batch manned testing of self-driving passenger cars based on vehicle-road coordination, and entered the driverless 2. generation. ? Through vehicle-road cooperation, especially in case of failure in the tunnel and loss of satellite navigation signals, it can provide some over-the-horizon early warning capabilities, provide more possibilities for unmanned driving to sense signals, and improve the overall safety of self-driving cars.
