The scheme has been adapted to the Feifan MARVEL R, Lincoln MKZ, Geely Geometry A and other models

On April 20, 2022, the Yuanrong Qixing L4 level automatic driving front-loading solution fleet landed in Shenzhen, which consists of 30 autonomous vehicles and will be put into the Operation of Robotaxi in Shenzhen by Yuanrong Qixing. The fleet is equipped with the company's latest L4 level autonomous driving solution for front-loading production, DeepRoute-Driver 2.0. It is also the lowest-cost L4 autonomous driving solution in the industry.

DeepRoute-Driver 2.0 has been conducting normalized road tests in the Shenzhen CBD for half a year, and in terms of performance, it can calmly complete complex operations such as lane change and avoid temporary roadblocks, and solve special road conditions such as "ghost probe" and "plug". DeepRoute-Driver 2.0 can adapt to a variety of models, the solution has been successfully adapted with the Feifan MARVEL R, Lincoln MKZ, Geely Geometry A and other models, can enter the automatic driving system with one click.

The front-loading scheme of Yuanrong's departure, the body of each car is embedded with 2 to 5 solid-state lidar and 8 cameras, and the sensors have passed the vehicle-level high temperature and waterproof detection. In the future, its sensor configuration can also be adapted to different sensor configurations according to the design needs of the depot. In terms of computing power, DeepRoute-Driver 2.0 is equipped with NVIDIA DRIVE Orin vehicle specification-level chip, combined with Yuanrong Qixing's self-developed inference engine technology, which controls the overall power consumption of the computing platform at 150 watts.

Relying on self-developed multi-sensor fusion technology, DeepRoute-Driver 2.0 has an accurate sensing distance of more than 200 meters. In order to ensure safety, Yuanrong Qixing also designed a pure visual redundant perception system, in the case of partial sensor failure, the system can also adaptively carry out automatic driving according to safety policies. In addition, DeepRoute-Driver 2.0 is also equipped with a cloud assurance platform, data assurance system and other security redundancy systems.

Zhou Guang, CEO of Yuanrong Qixing, said: "In addition to creating safe and reliable technology, there are many problems that need to be solved to achieve mass production of autonomous driving, among which how to achieve cost reduction and efficiency increase is the most practical problem. DeepRoute-Driver 2.0 currently costs less than $10,000, and on the basis of ensuring system performance, the cost of the entire autonomous driving system can be reduced by another 70% after large-scale cooperation with car companies. ”

At present, Yuanrong Qixing has begun to carry out technical cooperation with a number of OEMs. According to the planning of Yuanrong Qixing, it is expected that by 2024, cars equipped with Yuanrong Qixing L4 automatic driving solutions will begin mass production and enter the market on a large scale, when vehicles will take the lead in achieving L4-level automatic driving in areas with rich data accumulation, and continue to accumulate data in other areas in the mode of human-machine co-driving, and then gradually release L4-level automatic driving capabilities, and finally achieve automatic driving in more areas. Yuanrong Qixing will continue to iterate autonomous driving technology in the closed loop of data collection and analysis, algorithm improvement, simulation, to real road testing and version upgrade, and accelerate the commercialization of L4 level automatic driving.

Zhou Guang said: "With an open attitude, we will maintain and cooperate with the upstream and downstream technologies of the industry, polish the front-loading mass production plan for the industry, and gradually promote the commercialization of automatic driving." ”

Yaotu Capital has long been concerned about the investment direction of autonomous driving, and Yaotu Capital has participated in two rounds of financing, yuanrong qi angel round and B round b round in September 2021. In addition, based on the grasp of technology trends and the investigation of the industrial chain, Yaotu has captured a number of industry leaders, such as Jingwei Hengrun (688326), Yuanrong Qixing, Geometric Partners, Neolithic, Innoviz (INVZ), Vayyar, Hailo, Intuition Robotics, Guardknox, Haizhibo, etc.
