The first batch of 12 unmanned vehicles in Chengdu were tested on the road. In the future, Baidu Intelligent Transportation will also develop driverless taxis in Chengdu, and citizens can call these driverless taxis through taxi software. The first batch of 12 unmanned vehicles in Chengdu were tested on the road.
The first batch of unmanned vehicles in Chengdu 12 road test 1 Recently, Chengdu Public Security Traffic Management Bureau officially issued the first batch of driving licenses for road test vehicles in Chengdu to Apollo Zhixing Information Technology (Chengdu) Co., Ltd.
The situation on the expressway is not static. In order to make the use safer, according to the regulations, the first batch of 12 intelligent networked cars will be tested on the designated expressway.
Driving number plate of unmanned test vehicle
The 12 intelligent networked cars are 8 cars and 4 buses respectively. Tests were carried out in Chengdu Xinchuan Innovation and Technology Park, north of Keelung Road, south of Guangdu subway station, west of Yahe North Second Road and east of Kim Road. Staff will do a good job of data collection in order to further optimize the vehicle system.
In order to ensure the safety during driving, these self-driving vehicles are developed based on Baidu Apollo autopilot platform, and the latest Apollo technology is applied. Self-driving vehicles perceive road information through various sensing devices such as radar and camera on the car body, and then transmit the information to the intelligent center. After AI calculation, they give the correct instructions to the vehicle.
At present, Apollo's test fleet has reached 500 vehicles, with 2,900 patents and a total test mileage of more than 7 million kilometers. The cumulative test mileage of L4 automatic driving has exceeded 6.5438+million kilometers. This is the only China enterprise in the world that has accumulated road test10 million kilometers. The technology is relatively mature. But artificial intelligence needs more road samples to learn how to drive vehicles in this area.
In addition to the vehicle itself, the road has also been transformed. * * * More than 500 kinds of roadside equipment have been installed, including lidar, RSCU (roadside computing unit), RSU (roadside wireless transmission equipment) and high-definition cameras. All these can help self-driving vehicles to know the traffic situation at intersections in advance and provide higher driving safety for self-driving vehicles.
If the test is successful, these driverless buses are expected to be officially put into operation during the Universiade.
And not only on driverless buses, Baidu Intelligent Transportation will also develop driverless taxis in Chengdu in the future, and citizens can hit these driverless taxis through taxi software.
Previously, Baidu has launched a Robotaxi solution for urban open roads, which is the first unmanned solution for passenger cars to provide travel services for open roads in China. Moreover, Robotaxi has fully opened the test ride service in Changsha, Chenzhou and Beijing, fulfilling Baidu's promise to let driverless taxis run on the streets, and also realizing a complete industrial chain from scale testing to pre-assembly production line to landing operation.
Rapid passenger transport
In addition to self-driving taxis, Robocop, a self-driving travel service platform, has been launched, which has begun to enjoy car use and has been officially operated in some cities. Baidu's financial report shows that in the fourth quarter of 20021,the number of manned orders for Rapunzel was about 2 1.3 million, nearly doubling from the previous month.
Now Chengdu is also beginning to move towards the era of smart cars. With the development of science and technology, unmanned driving has also entered the lives of more people.
Chengdu's first batch of 12 driverless cars on the road test 2 According to Chengdu's release, Chengdu's first batch of intelligent networked cars on the road test vehicle driving licenses were officially issued recently. According to the regulations, the first batch of 12 intelligent networked vehicles will be tested on designated roads in Chengdu.
Recently, a row of cars and buses with the words "automatic driving test" written on them are being debugged before the road test near Chengdu Xinchuan Innovation and Technology Park. According to the person in charge of the project site, during the test, the staff will follow the vehicle to collect data and further optimize the vehicle system. It is expected that during the Chengdu Universiade, driverless buses will be officially put into operation, and in the near future, driverless taxis will also run in this area.
It is understood that there are 12 vehicles participating in the road test, including 8 cars and 4 buses. The road test will be carried out in the area from Keelung Road in the north, Guangdu subway station in the south, Yahei No.2 Road in the west and Kim Road in the east.
According to Baidu, the self-driving vehicles currently used in the test are all developed based on Baidu's Apollo self-driving platform, and the latest Apollo technology is applied. Although the technology is relatively mature, in order to ensure safety and make unmanned vehicles smarter and safer, it is still necessary to use road sample training algorithms to continuously let artificial intelligence learn how to drive vehicles in this area.
In fact, the self-driving vehicle itself is equipped with many sensors, such as lidar, millimeter-wave radar, camera and so on. Through the fusion sensing algorithm of various sensors, the surrounding environment of the vehicle can be accurately obtained, thus telling the vehicle what to do.
In addition, the whole test part has also been intelligently transformed. At present, 35 intersections have been reconstructed and more than 500 kinds of roadside equipment have been installed in the experimental section, including laser radar, RSCU (roadside computing unit), RSU (roadside wireless transmission equipment) and high-definition cameras.
According to the person in charge of intelligent driving in Chengdu 5G smart city of Chengdu High-tech Zone Electronic Information Industry Development Co., Ltd., if all goes well, the bus tested this time is expected to be put into operation during the Chengdu Universiade.
Not just a driverless bus. In the future, citizens in Xinchuan area may also get a driverless taxi.
The first batch of 12 unmanned vehicles in Chengdu were tested on the road. Three days ago, Chengdu officially issued the first batch of 12 driverless license plates to Chengdu High-tech Zone, which means that these intelligent networked cars can be legally on the road. At present, the first batch of 4 buses and 8 taxis have been tested on the road of intelligent transformation of Xinchuan Innovation and Technology Park in Chengdu High-tech Zone, marking that Chengdu will usher in the era of intelligent networked vehicles.
