Personally, I think the driverless taxi is actually very novel and curious, and I am also very willing to take the driverless taxi, because when I take a taxi in my daily life, the driver and I actually have some social fears, so when I face the driver, I will have some situations that I can't let go. Secondly, I sometimes worry that taxi drivers are bad people. If it is a driverless taxi, there is no such consideration at all, and I will feel very comfortable. I think the science and technology in our country is developing very rapidly now, and many technical fields are very mature. We have several years of unmanned driving experience, so under such circumstances, the unmanned taxi is also very safe, and I dare to ride it with confidence.
In this era, in fact, the development of many things is beyond our imagination. We must bravely accept these new things, so that we will not be abandoned while the new society develops. I think driving a driverless taxi will definitely be popular in the future, so under such circumstances, I am very willing to take it.
With the rapid development of autonomous driving technology, commercial applications continue to land. Recently, Chongqing and Wuhan departments took the lead in releasing the pilot policy of unmanned commercialization of autonomous driving. From now on, in certain areas of Wuhan Economic Development Zone and Chongqing Yongchuan District, you can get a taxi with no driver and self-driving. What kind of feelings will this bring to passengers? All unmanned self-driving taxis are on the road. Chongqing and Wuhan took the lead in Wuhan Economic Development Zone, Hubei Province, and taking a taxi was different.
First, make an appointment to place an order through the mobile phone taxi software, enter the destination and call the vehicle. After waiting for a few minutes, the taxi that ordered came into the station. At present, Chongqing and Wuhan have taken the lead in releasing the pilot test of unmanned commercialization. Starting from today, you can take a taxi to a certain area in Wuhan Economic Development Zone and Yongchuan District of Chongqing. When people experience it, it is found that there are no drivers and safety officers in the main driving position and the co-pilot position of the driverless taxi, which means that it is a purely unmanned self-driving taxi.
Many people worry that driverless taxis will get lost in Chongqing because GPS is not easy to use in Chongqing, but in fact, the domestic driverless car positioning system using lidar relies more on lidar to model the surrounding environment than GPS. For today's unmanned vehicles, the accuracy of GPS is too low, generally only meters. If a vehicle wants to know which lane it is in and whether it deviates from the center line of the lane, it needs centimeter-level positioning accuracy. Nowadays, most of the methods are environmental feature matching, that is, walking around the city with lidar in advance and recording the obstacles such as flower beds and telephone poles with fixed positions in the city. When the car is on the road, it can compare the high-precision maps established before and accurately locate its position.
The car will start when the passenger clicks the start button. There is a screen behind the main driver's seat and the assistant driver's seat, which displays information such as driving speed, remaining mileage and arrival time. Because the speed limit of basic roads in the Economic Development Zone is 60km/h and that of unmanned vehicles is 40km/h, the whole driving process is relatively stable. In terms of price, the reporter found that the pricing of pure driverless taxis is similar to the price of online car. Because there are preferential activities in the local area now, the whole journey is only seven or eight minutes' drive from 2 yuan.
Driverless taxis are vehicles based on autonomous driving technology and can provide rental services. Driverless taxi is a newly designed driverless vehicle. British airports will use unmanned taxis to pick up and drop off passengers, hoping to replace buses along designated routes. As long as the destination is set in the carriage, the taxi will follow the designated road. The car can carry four people, plus a suitcase, powered by batteries, and the speed can reach 25 km/h. There will be 18 such taxis at first. Unlike all the unmanned trains in the airport now, passengers can choose their own destinations after boarding.
