Abstract: Autonomous driving system is an emerging industry in China, which is mainly characterized by intelligence and informatization, relying on artificial intelligence, visual computing, radar, monitoring devices and global positioning system to work in concert, so that computers can automatically and safely operate motor vehicles without any human initiative. With the continuous updating of smart vehicle technology and the increasing requirements of automobile consumers for intelligent safety performance, the market size of China's autonomous driving system industry will continue to maintain rapid growth.
On May 16, 2023 China (Yizhuang) Intelligent Networked Vehicle Technology Week and the 10th International Intelligent Networked Vehicle Technology Annual Conference were held in Beijing. Miao Changxing, a first-class inspector of the Equipment Industry Division of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), said at the meeting that in 2022, the sales volume of new intelligent Internet-connected passenger cars equipped with assisted autonomous driving systems in China reached 7 million, up 45.6% year-on-year, and the proportion of new energy vehicles equipped with assisted autonomous driving systems reached 48%.
Autonomous driving system is an emerging industry in China, which is mainly characterized by intelligence and informatization, relying on artificial intelligence, visual computing, radar, monitoring devices and global positioning system to work in concert so that computers can automatically and safely operate motor vehicles without any human initiative. With the continuous updating of intelligent vehicle technology and the increasing requirements of automobile consumers for intelligent safety performance, the market size of China's autonomous driving system industry will continue to maintain rapid growth.
As early as December 31, 2013, the automotive division of IHS Global Insight, a leading global economic consultancy, predicted that by 2035 the world will have nearly 54 million self-driving vehicles. According to McKinsey, China is likely to become the world's largest self-driving market in the future, and it is expected that by 2030, China's self-driving-related new car sales and travel services will generate revenues of more than 3.58 trillion yuan.
Intensive policy support for China's autonomous driving industry
The industry generally believes that 2020-2030 will be the "golden decade" for the development of automated driving, and also a critical period for China to realize the surpassing of other countries.
In December 2017, the Beijing Municipal Commission of Transportation, together with the Beijing Municipal Public Security Traffic Management Bureau, Beijing Municipal Commission of Economy and Information and other departments, prospectively formulated and released the "Guiding Opinions" and "Implementing Rules" for the road testing of self-driving vehicles, to standardize and promote the actual road testing of self-driving vehicles.
Beijing Municipal Commission of Transportation believes that autonomous driving is an important way to enhance the level of road traffic intelligence and promote the transformation and upgrading of the transportation industry, as well as a favorable opportunity to drive the integration of transportation, automotive, communications and other industries.
In February 2020, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), together with 11 ministries and commissions, issued the Strategy for the Innovative Development of Intelligent Vehicles, proposing the realization of conditional large-scale production of self-driving vehicles by 2025, as well as the marketable application of highly self-driving vehicles in specific environments.
In 2022, China's autonomous driving industry ushered in intensive policy support and realized a legislative breakthrough for the first time. Macro policy guidance from central ministries and commissions such as MIIT, NDRC, MOST, and MOTC, as well as management and implementation rules from local governments in more than 40 provinces and cities, provide clearer policy support and legal safeguards for automated driving technological innovation and industrial synergies, in particular, key issues such as vehicle requirements, operator qualifications, road applicability, personnel requirements, safety and security and supervision and management are clarified.
With the inclusion of autonomous driving in a number of macro policies, the medium- and long-term development certainty of autonomous driving has increased.
Automatic driving industry from emergence to large-scale development
From a global perspective, the commercialization of automated driving in foreign countries is relatively early. on January 17, 2009, Google's automated driving project, Project Chauffeur, was officially launched. So far, Google has applied for and obtained a number of related patents, and its driverless cars were licensed to hit the road in 2012, with a total driving mileage of more than 483,000 kilometers and almost zero accident rate.
In 2013, large automobile companies, including General Motors, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, and BMW, were developing their own company's self-driving car technology.In October 2015, Tesla launched Autopilot, a semi-autonomous driving system.In 2016, Uber's driverless car was formally tested on the road at the Uber Advanced Technology Center... ...
In China, autonomous driving, as a windfall for the future development of automotive technology, has likewise become an area of focus for many companies. At present, companies with automatic driving test licenses include Internet giants like Baidu, Tencent, and Alibaba, as well as traditional automobile manufacturers like BAIC, SAIC, FAW, GAC, Geely, and Dongfeng; and Internet travel companies like DDT, as well as science and technology companies like Wenyuan Zhixing and Pony Zhixing. In order to seize the first opportunity of the new round of technological change, all companies are actively involved in the research and development of self-driving technology and automobile road tests.
In 2013, Baidu's driverless project started in the Baidu Research Institute.In the second half of 2016, Tencent set up an automatic driving laboratory.In 2018, Alibaba officially announced the layout of the automatic driving business.In 2019, Huawei formally entered the field of intelligent cars, and Huawei's self-driving technology made its debut in April 2021.......
With the continuous development and popularization of domestic automatic driving technology, more and more giant companies are pouring into this field.
Chance Position's "High Precision Positioning" Solution for Autonomous Driving
Along with the booming development of the industry and the rapid iteration of the market, individual consumers and major manufacturers have put forward higher requirements for the positioning function of the automatic driving system, such as: lane-level positioning, ODD judgment; fast convergence through bridges + accuracy maintenance in tunnels; continuous positioning in all-weather all-scenes; high reliability of the positioning results; integrity or confidence, etc. Ordinary positioning functions can no longer meet the user's needs well, and the importance of driving high-precision positioning has become more prominent. Ordinary positioning functions can no longer well meet user needs, driving the importance of high-precision positioning more prominent.
