Wen Hao Ott is driving? A
China can also test completely unmanned vehicles.
Today (July 10), the self-driving startup Wenyuan Zhixing announced that it has obtained the license for remote testing of intelligent networked vehicles jointly issued by Guangzhou Municipal Bureau of Transportation, Bureau of Industry and Information Technology and Public Security Bureau.
That is to say, Wen Yuan Zhixing WeRide can carry out fully unmanned road test of open roads within the scope of Guangzhou Automobile Road Test, and at the same time, it adopts multiple redundant means such as remote control based on 5G network to ensure the safety and controllability of the whole road test process.
With the issuance of the remote test license, Wen Yuan Star will become the first autonomous driving company in China and the second in the world to be allowed to conduct completely unmanned test.
Compared with the previous test vehicles, the new unmanned test vehicle needs to be equipped with 5G remote control function, and its main function is to replace the safety officer. In the case of unconventional traffic, such as temporary road closure, need for retrograde bypass, vehicles can switch to remote takeover mode in real time.
2065438+September 2008, Wen Yuan Zhixing realized the first unmanned remote control based on 5G in China. Guangzhou International Biological Island, as the first demonstration island of 5G autopilot application in China, has achieved the coverage of 5G network all over the island.
It is reported that Wen Yuan Zhixing will jointly develop 5G with China Unicom? The application of +MEC (Mobile Edge Computing) technology provides a converged processing platform integrating ultra-low latency, ultra-high bandwidth and ultra-high computing, which greatly reduces the average network latency to 13ms.
In order to meet the test conditions of completely unmanned vehicles on the road, Wen Yuan Zhixing revealed that the remote controller has completed more than 1000 hours of simulation training, providing a comprehensive and reliable guarantee for the test.
In this regard, Wenyuan Zhixing passed the strict examination of the operation center of Guangzhou Intelligent Networked Automobile Demonstration Zone with ultra-high standards, and took the lead in obtaining the first remote test license in China.
Han Xu, founder and CEO of Wen Yuan Zhixing, said: "Wenyuan Zhixing's driverless system has passed the double tests of more than 2 million kilometers of road test and more than 200 days of open operation, and its stability and safety are leading in the industry. All unmanned driving is an important development goal of Wen Yuan Zhixing in the next 2-3 years. With the strong support of Guangzhou and Guangzhou Development Zone Government, I am full of confidence. I believe that Wen Yuan Zhihang will become the first enterprise in China to provide citizens with safe and reliable all-unmanned Robotaxi services. "
As an autonomous driving start-up, up to now, the scale of Wen Yuan Zhixing autonomous driving fleet has exceeded 100, with a road test mileage of 2.6 million kilometers.
Based on the automatic driving test on real roads, Wen Yuan Zhixing simulation system has accumulated as many as 480,000 scene data and more than 200 million three-dimensional object labeling data, and the cloud simulation platform runs millions of kilometers of test mileage every day.
On the basis of full road test, Wenyuan Zhixing launched the first self-driving taxi service in Guangzhou at the end of 10/9. In Huangpu District of Guangzhou, Guangzhou Development Zone 144 square kilometers of urban open roads for more than 200 days, with zero safety accidents, and accumulated valuable self-driving travel experience.
In June, 2020, Wen Yuan Zhixing Robotaxi launched a high-tech taxi platform to access a more mature travel market, and realized the fully open Robotaxi service jointly launched by the first domestic aggregated taxi platform and self-driving travel enterprises.
At present, companies that have launched Robotaxi in China include Baidu, Didi, Ma Xiao Zhixing and so on. For the American market, Zoox, Waymo，？ Cruise? Argo? AI，？ Aurora is also known as the "five families" of autonomous driving in Silicon Valley.
Among them, Waymo sent a completely unmanned invitation by mail to users in the suburbs of Phoenix, Arizona, USA in June 5438+10.
Of course, a very important reason why Robotaxi wants to develop steadily is profit. As to whether Robotaxi can make a profit, the almost unanimous answer in the industry is to remove the security officer.
Zhong Hua, technical director of Wen Yuan Zhixing China District, once pointed out that the development of driverless companies is divided into five stages:
The first stage: realize the automatic driving of fixed route.
The second stage: realize the automatic driving from any point to point in a small area.
The third stage: realize large-scale automatic driving test and operation.
The fourth stage: all unmanned tests and trial runs in a limited area for a limited time.
The fifth stage: realize large-scale and large-scale unmanned operation.
For Wenyuan Zhixing, obtaining the license of intelligent networked automobile remote test means that the company has officially entered the fourth stage of driverless driving, which is not far from Robotaxi's profit, and has entered the fifth stage, or will achieve full profit.
At the World Artificial Intelligence Conference, Zhu Xichan, a professor at Tongji University's Automotive College, said that the payment revolution triggered by smart phones took about 15 years. According to the law of the development of scientific and technological products, driverless cars may change the way of urban travel around 2030 -2050.
