Vol 6 Chapter 3328: Safety is the greatest luxury

Chapter 3328 Safety is the greatest luxury

Having said this, Wu Hao looked at everyone and said: "From this aspect, the capabilities of the autonomous driving system have far exceeded that of manned driving.

When a person encounters this kind of situation, he will subconsciously choose what he thinks is the best solution, but what he thinks is not necessarily the best solution.

This is mainly because our reaction time is limited. Most people who have not received special training will only think of the most common and simple solutions when driving a vehicle when encountering such a situation.

And because we ordinary people will inevitably panic when encountering this kind of situation, this greatly increases our reaction time and increases the chance of making mistakes.

And because there is a lot of time, we humans cannot estimate all the information. For example, the situation on both sides of the vehicle, the situation at the rear, etc.

Many car accidents often occur because drivers avoid danger and cause bigger accidents.

As for our high-end autonomous driving system, it can perform repeated calculations based on all the data information obtained around the vehicle, and finally generate a series of solutions, from which the most reliable solution can be selected for execution.

The entire process takes milliseconds or even microseconds, and can be calculated hundreds of thousands or millions of times within such a period of time to generate a series of solutions. Such reaction and decision-making time is far beyond the reach of humans. "

Speaking of this, Wu Hao smiled and said: "I remember that in the field of self-driving cars, a famous executive said this, safety is the greatest luxury.

We have always adhered to this concept, or fundamentally, the foundation of everything is safety.

It should be said that the foundation or core of autonomous driving technology is safety. Without safety, no matter how advanced the autonomous driving technology is, it is worthless. "

Wu Hao's speech was like a breeze blowing by, deeply shocking the audience present. Of course they have heard this sentence and recognized it from the bottom of their hearts.

In fact, everyone in the industry who is engaged in electric vehicles and autonomous driving technology understands this. But as competition in the domestic electric vehicle field has become increasingly fierce in recent years, everyone is getting involved.

This kind of competition, or industry involution, is actually beneficial to the development of the entire industry, and the entire consumer group, including the entire society, can benefit from it.

But if it is too rolled, problems may easily arise.

In order to be original and express themselves, some people blindly pursue the so-called number one in the industry, so many unwise behaviors occur.

For example, the most common data is watered down, exaggerated, and even falsified in some places. In other words, we follow some fancy technologies and forget that the core of autonomous driving technology is safety.

Therefore, for a period of time, some manufacturers' cars suffered several major accidents due to autonomous driving technology, which had a huge impact. This also made many people begin to question the safety of autonomous driving technology, thus affecting the entire industry.

In the end, many large companies, including technology suppliers, came out to provide clarifications, explanations, guarantees, and even test drives in person. Only then did the adverse effects gradually disappear.

Even so, the entire industry suffered huge losses due to this accident, and its development was stagnant for several months.

So everyone present felt very emotional after hearing Wu Hao mention this again.

"So, in our view, autonomous driving is not only to improve the convenience of travel, but more importantly, to protect the life safety of every passenger."

Wu Hao's tone became more firm: "Our high-end autonomous driving system is not just a stack of technology, but also a reflection of respect for life."
