According to the project agreement, Baidu Apollo will build a vehicle-road collaborative test demonstration zone within 20 square kilometers of Yongchuan City, Chongqing, and provide full support for the demonstration zone? L4？ Intelligent Vehicle Infrastructure Cooperative Systems (Intelligent Vehicle Infrastructure Cooperative Systems) is an overall solution for autonomous driving. A 3,000-square-meter intelligent networked innovation demonstration base is built in Yongchuan Big Data Industrial Park to carry out research on testing technology and standards. ?
Baidu Apollo will be mainly responsible for the construction of urban test scenarios including urban interchanges, urban trunk roads, urban administrative roads and urban business district roads in this project; Complete the front-end system construction, including the perception and transmission of deployment points, the deployment of edge servers and signal control systems; Complete the deployment of the vehicle-road collaborative cloud control platform and the self-driving vehicle supervision platform in the data center. After the first phase of the project is completed, it will be able to carry? 100? Self-driving vehicles above Taiwan Province will conduct demonstration operation. ?
Chongqing has a special traffic terrain and is known as the "all-round examination room" for self-driving road test. Therefore, it has natural advantages to build the western self-driving open test base in Yongchuan, Chongqing. At present, the COVID-19 epidemic is also fading in China, and major new infrastructure construction represented by 5G, big data and artificial intelligence is being carried out nationwide. ?
Taking Chongqing as an example, according to the announced major investment project plan, Chongqing will promote 924 major construction projects this year, with a total investment of about 2.7 trillion yuan, involving intelligent transportation, communications and other fields. Yongchuan District is the first demonstration area of strategic emerging service industry agglomeration in Chongqing, which has multiple advantages such as location, transportation and industry. The construction of "West Autopilot Open Test Base" is one of the leading new infrastructure projects in Yongchuan District of Chongqing.
Why did Baidu Apollo win Yongchuan's "West Autopilot Open Test Base" project? Chongqing Yongchuan official gave four reasons:
1, Baidu is the only enterprise that undertakes the national artificial intelligence open innovation platform for autonomous driving;
2. Baidu is the only enterprise with Grade A mapping qualification for navigation maps, high-precision map collection and production for autonomous driving, and large-scale landing application capability for L4-class autonomous vehicles;
3. Baidu is the only enterprise that has the full-stack R&D capability of autonomous driving and vehicle-road coordination;
4. Baidu has core patents on autonomous driving road collaborative intelligent system and cloud control platform.
(20 19 Zhibo Fair, Baidu signed cooperation agreements with the General Office of Chongqing Municipal Government, Yuzhong District, Yongchuan District, Chongqing Metrology and Quality Inspection Institute and Zhongxian County)
Before this, Baidu was early? 20 18? In 2008, he obtained the license of Chongqing Autopilot Test. 20 19? At the Expo in 2008, Yongchuan District Government, Chongqing Automobile Inspection Institute and Baidu signed a tripartite cooperation agreement to jointly build and operate the "West Autopilot Open Test Base" project in Yongchuan, with a total investment of 654.38 billion yuan. ?
With its unique advantages, Chongqing has laid out autonomous driving in the wave of new infrastructure, while Baidu has full-stack capabilities in autonomous driving. It can be said that both sides have unique advantages. The construction of an autonomous driving open test base in the west of China is a powerful alliance. ?
Baidu Apollo is the world's largest open platform for autonomous driving. At present, there are three open platform systems: automatic driving, vehicle-road coordination and intelligent vehicle association. In the past, Baidu Apollo has landed in many places across the country with "smart roads+smart cars". Cooperate with cities and car companies to build an urban autonomous driving ecosystem. Baidu Apollo called this route ACE Ace City Plan (autonomous? Driving and networking? Road, efficiency? Mobility, that is, automatic driving, vehicle-road coordination, and efficient travel).
Walking with the leader of autonomous driving in China, I look forward to Chongqing becoming another ace city.
