Vol 6 Chapter 2830: ultimate test

"Of course, this is also to comply with the current regulatory requirements, after all, we are not only responsible for the safety of our own vehicles, but also for the safety of other vehicles on the road.

In order to be able to demonstrate the performance of this technology to everyone, this time we chose a composite road. In simple terms, it covers a variety of road conditions. Only in this way can we show its performance.

Moreover, our test this time is very different from the conventional self-driving technology test. This time we do not select a route, nor will we mark the route. We will only input a coordinate to the system, and then the car will drive autonomously. Select and plan the route, and then automatically drive to this coordinate position without human intervention. "

Hearing Wu Hao's introduction, everyone instantly understood the difficulty of the entire test task. This way of only giving the coordinates and then having the vehicle drive automatically in the main stage is too difficult, which has very high requirements for the entire system, and any problems in it will lead to the final failure of the entire test.

"This test route is more than 1,000 kilometers long, spanning four provinces and cities, and covering areas such as mountains, plateaus, plains, cities, and next to deserts.

The road also covers almost all driving environments from urban roads, highways, provincial roads, urban and rural roads, country roads, dirt roads, and even no roads.

And in the process, we will also encounter strong winds, heavy rain, ice, snow, sand and dust, etc. These extreme weather put forward more stringent requirements for the entire system.

And because the distance is relatively long, we will encounter various road conditions and emergencies along the way, all of which require the vehicle to carry out autonomously, and we will not intervene.

Of course, in order to ensure the safety of the test vehicles and safety officers, we will send two vehicles for accompanying security. Unless there is a problem with the test vehicle, the accompanying technical support team will not intervene in the entire vehicle. "

At the same time as Wu Hao introduced, on the big screen, the vehicle had already started to set off. Everyone finally saw the entire route of the test and the final CLP.

The setting of this terminal is very special, it is not an urban village, but in a no-man's land. In other words, no one lives here, except for some self-driving tourists, few people visit here, let alone any roads.

That is to say, this time, the final stage of testing of this car or this technology was carried out in no-man's land with no roads. The difficulty of this test can be said to have crushed various tests of other competitors. It should be said that this is the ultimate test in the field of autonomous driving technology.

The road planned by the vehicle is also very interesting, choosing a road that seems very reasonable to everyone. However, there are many branch lines in the navigation line, and these lines alternate with each other, which makes people confused.

Wu Hao's voice also sounded at this time, and he started to explain to everyone: "As you can see, there is not only one navigation route independently planned by the vehicle, but many, and these roads intersect each other to form a network.

The reason for this is that this test route is relatively long, so various problems may be encountered along the way, so the system will plan the next route based on real-time traffic information to ensure a smooth journey.

To put it simply, this navigation route is dynamic. It will not continue along a fixed route, but will plan its own route based on real-time traffic information to ensure a smooth and smooth journey to the destination. "

Hearing Wu Hao's introduction, everyone who listened couldn't help but feel the impression. You know, all previous autonomous driving technologies have driven along navigation lines. Once the navigation route is determined, it is difficult to change and modify it unless it is modified by human intervention.

And these navigation routes are usually planned using big data, and many of them are designed to shorten the so-called distance and time, so the planned roads are not easy to drive. This is also an important reason for many car owners to complain. How to follow the navigation instructions and walk without a road, or drive into a small alley.

Another thing is that when encountering some traffic jams, the automatic driving system will not change, but will continue to follow other vehicles and wait.

But now, Wu Hao's L5 level fully automatic driving technology can automatically and flexibly plan navigation routes, which also means that it can change routes at any time according to actual conditions just like humans, so as to achieve flexible driving.

"We can see that in the initial stage, the vehicle was driving in the urban area of ​​Anxi, and the whole driving process was very smooth without any accidents. Of course, this is nothing, because many L3 automatic driving systems can also do it.

But what we want to show you are some pictures of avoiding pedestrians and preventing traffic jams. "

Following Wu Hao's voice, in the picture, the vehicle is traveling on a relatively congested and complicated road. On both sides of the road are crowded people and various small stalls, and in the middle are congested vehicles.

The test vehicle shuttled through these noisy crowds with ease, and always kept a safe distance from the vehicle in front. When the vehicle next to it wants to stop, it can respond in time, so as not to give the other party an opportunity.

Everyone who saw this point nodded their heads repeatedly. This scene alone can crush 90% of the old drivers. Not only can you avoid these crowds that appear at any time, but you can also deal with congestion with ease. This performance is even worse than that of old drivers.

Immediately after the vehicle started to drive into the high speed, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com adopted fast forward for the entire high speed journey, because the entire high speed road conditions are relatively simple, and L3 level automatic driving can handle it, not to mention this kind of fully automatic driving technology Woolen cloth.

So skim quickly until the vehicle gets off the high speed and starts driving on the provincial road. This provincial road is a provincial road through the mountainous area, two-way two-lane, one side is a cliff, the other side is a cliff, and there are many large muck trucks driving on the road.

And because it is a mountainous area, these roads are winding roads with steep slopes and sharp bends. In addition, there are cliffs next to the roads. No matter who comes, they will sweat.

But this test vehicle was able to drive on the entire road with ease, as if it was an old local driver who had been running this kind of road for decades.

Many passers-by that seem very dangerous to everyone, under the control of the system, the vehicles pass through very easily.

In addition, there are some sharp bends, some of which are even very large, and the vehicle cannot pass through it at one time, but this test vehicle passed it very smoothly.
