Shanghai Lujiazui, one of the oldest auto shows in China, has recently become the focus of the global automotive industry again. This year's Shanghai Motor Show and the Munich Motor Show, the world's oldest show, clearly show a trend: the future direction of global automobiles will be new energy sources dominated by electric energy. More importantly, what is the future direction of new energy?
At a recent sharing meeting held at Tsinghua University, Zhiji Auto gave a clear answer: autonomous driving. However, achieving autonomous driving is not an easy task, and it took Zhiji two years to complete the nine-year journey of other competitors. With its "light architecture + strong algorithm" solution, Zhiji's safety in the number of collision accidents per 100 kilometers has reached 3.2 times that of human driving, and the safety brake frequency of millions of kilometers has exceeded the industry's top standard by 5 times, successfully becoming the top player in the intelligent driving industry.
In order to obtain future opportunities, Zhiji will also open the public test of high-definition map NOA and the public test of urban NOA. However, has Zhiji IM AD really become the first echelon of NOA as officially said? A mirror of Shanghai Lujiazui will clearly answer this question.
To challenge Shanghai Lujiazui City NOA, what is the foundation?
Recently, many new energy vehicle companies have joined the competition in the "urban NOA" field, and although the competition is fierce, there are few successes. Zhiji Auto is one of the few successful players.
The challenge route starts from "1951 Century Avenue", passes through "Minsheng Road" to "Sowers Road Dingshui Road", and then follows Pudong Avenue to the end point "Shanghai IFC Shopping Mall". The entire route covers almost all types of urban roads, as well as huge crowds and battery cars.
To this end, Zhiji has already prepared strong technical support.
As an automotive company that focuses on vision and supplemented by radar, Zhiji's success does not only rely on the stacking of hardware and computing power, but focuses on the development of light architecture. Through the optimization of the model, Zhiji's demand for computing power has been reduced by 90%, and the operating efficiency of the model has been improved by 500%. This allows Zhiji IM AD to achieve global visual integration on a limited computing power platform, or use only a lidar and a single chip to realize the whole city scene and NOA solution with high-precision mapping.
In addition to the powerful platform, the three major technical solutions of D.L.P., DDLD and Occupancy cooperated by Zhiji and Momenta are also the powerful core of its algorithms.
The D.L.P. acts as a port for the human eye and brain to process information, capturing 14 million kilometers of data in real time per day and efficiently understanding scenarios and vehicle behavior.
DDLD is the equivalent of a taxi driver's brain, gradually becoming familiar with the road he is driving on and navigating accurately without using Amap.
Occupancy is equivalent to a 360° periscope telephoto lens, which can accurately predict information in advance about irregular objects such as surrounding pebbles and road surface bulges.
What road conditions did Zhiji IM AD encounter during the challenge? What features are used?
Unlike other urban NOA experiences, Zhiji IM AD tried an unprotected U-turn at an extremely difficult intersection for the first time.
In a matter of seconds, the IM AD needs to capture and process vehicle information in front and opposite the left rear lane through D.L.P., as well as understand and process the movements of various pedestrians at intersections. In the end, Zhiji IM AD successfully planned the most reasonable U-turn curve based on massive calculation results.
In addition, Zhiji IM AD also successfully completed a complex narrow circuit intelligent detour. During two-way single-lane driving, there are inbound vehicles encroaching on the road on the right, busy traffic on the left, and pedestrians crossing the road in the middle.
Under such complex road conditions, Zhiji IM AD accurately predicted the position, speed and trajectory of each object, and intelligently planned an interspersed route, smoothly avoiding inbound vehicles and pedestrians, and the whole process was smooth and safe.
In addition to the difficult movements, the decision-making ability of Zhiji IM AD is also impressive. In the process of challenge, Zhiji IM AD encountered a multi-lane smart selection scenario.
The Zhiji IM AD originally planned to drive in the leftmost turning lane, but when the D.L.P. found that the leftmost convoy was longer and the right lane was also the left turning lane, the Zhiji IM AD naturally changed lanes. The whole movement is smooth and natural, giving a logical feeling, as if Zhiji IM AD has been driving for at least ten years.
In the challenge of Shanghai Lujiazui City NOA to the end, Zhiji IM AD showed extraordinary strength. Whether it is difficult maneuvers or regular detour avoidance, Zhiji IM AD has shown very good urban NOA ability.
