Smart car road test specifications released, technology is expected to "gradually" breakthrough

　　The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Public Security, and the Ministry of Transport have recently jointly issued the "Management Standards for Intelligent Connected Vehicle Road Testing", which puts forward strict requirements on test subjects, test drivers and test vehicles, in order to promote my country's intelligent networked vehicles develop.

　　The development of intelligent connected cars is the core element of building a new industrial ecology of smart travel services, and has become an important breakthrough in the transformation and upgrading of the automotive industry in the new era. In order to promote autonomous driving to the highest stage of unmanned driving, some auto industry powers and world-renowned companies have accelerated the research and development and testing of autonomous driving technology. The promulgation of the "Management Regulations for Road Testing of Intelligent Connected Vehicles" will help promote my country's self-driving cars to be "on the road" lightly

　　The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Public Security, and the Ministry of Transport have recently jointly issued the "Management Standards for Intelligent Connected Vehicle Road Testing", which puts forward strict requirements on test subjects, test drivers and test vehicles, in order to promote my country's intelligent networked vehicles develop.

　　"The development of intelligent connected cars is not only an important means to solve the problems of traffic safety, road congestion, energy consumption, pollution emissions and other problems faced by the automotive society, but also the core element of building a new industrial ecology of smart travel services, and it is also an important way to promote a strong transportation country and a digital China. , An important carrier for the construction of a smart society, has become an important breakthrough for the transformation and upgrading of the automotive industry in the new era, and a strategic commanding height for the technological transformation of the global automotive industry.” said Xin Guobin, Deputy Minister of Industry and Information Technology.

　　"Intelligent connected cars and autonomous vehicles are the same concept, but they have different names in different industries and fields." said Pang Song, director of the Science and Technology Department of the Ministry of Transport. At present, autonomous driving technology has been used in banking and rail transit. Widely used, autonomous driving can bring positive effects on traffic road safety, high efficiency, energy saving, comfort, etc.; unmanned driving is the highest stage of autonomous driving, but from the current technical level, there is still a way to realize unmanned driving To go. In addition, after autonomous driving technology matures, it is necessary to promote the formulation of relevant application policies, standards and regulations.

　　"The concept of intelligent connected vehicles has been around for a long time, especially in the last 10 years. The main reason is the combination of mobile internet and automation." said Li Keqiang, a professor at Tsinghua University. Autonomous driving or intelligent connected vehicles are classified. From assisted driving to fully autonomous driving depends on technological breakthroughs. In certain scenarios such as warehouses and restricted areas, autonomous driving can be realized soon; but it will take some time to truly realize fully autonomous driving.

　　The industry divides autonomous driving into several levels, L2 is partially automatic driving, L3 is conditional automatic driving, and L4 and L5 are fully automatic driving. Tao Ji, the technical director of Baidu's autonomous driving technology, believes that intelligent networking is to allow vehicles to communicate with other vehicles and the cloud through V2X (the information exchange between the vehicle and the outside world) to obtain information beyond human perception, such as blind areas at intersections and obscured areas. Place to wait. In addition, in the future, roads may also undergo technical changes in order to adapt to fully automated driving, such as setting up dedicated roads for autonomous vehicles. When these technologies are implemented, autonomous driving can achieve L4 level.

　　"To achieve fully autonomous driving, some basic problems must be solved, such as perception, decision-making and control, etc., so new technologies such as artificial intelligence must be introduced. But so far, there is still a long way to go before autonomous driving technology can completely replace humans. At present, the new generation of artificial intelligence A very important one is to integrate machines and humans. This is also a very important technology in the process of fully replacing humans with autonomous driving." Li Keqiang said.
