Intelligent Transportation NDRC push behind driverless car

Yesterday, the National Development and Reform Commission published the official website of the "" Internet + "convenient transportation as a key to promote the development of intelligent transport," stated based on the "Internet +" convenient transportation and communication of intelligent transportation, the market is moving subject continuously push forward the field of intelligent transportation, GOOGLE, Baidu and other companies to promote the positive development of unmanned vehicles is the content of intelligent transportation. It seems in the industry, due to the successive exposed autopilot accident, an unmanned vehicle products recently suffered criticism, but the NDRC to the stand, for the relevant industry has injected confidence.

Since the end of last year Baidu driverless cars unveiled Wuzhen World Internet Conference, are highly concerned, intelligent vehicles, unmanned vehicle industry continues to heat up, Tesla, Ford, BMW and other companies have accelerated the pace of research and development, and strive to 3 - 5 years to achieve unmanned car commercial, but the high cost has become the biggest stumbling block. It is understood that, in addition to the vehicle body, driverless system is the most expensive components from the two parts, including the purchase price at around 70 million laser range finder, and nearly 20 million worth of real-time computing server.

Oppressed by the cost, many car businesses and technology companies have chosen to deepen cooperation, Baidu recently announced a joint venture with Ford, a Silicon Valley company's laser radar company, intended to hasten the commercialization of unmanned vehicles, while BMW and Intel, Apple and NVIDIA also their strategic alliance.

In the automotive industry analyst Jia Xinguang opinion, currently unmanned technology is not yet developed to the stage of practical application, and how the combination of the existing car also need to seriously consider, just start Internet companies continue to debug, "From a technical point of view, with the road , various factors policy, transportation systems also need to be taken into account, so that only large-scale testing is possible, unmanned vehicles have a chance to usher in a practical application. "

It is worth mentioning that no automobile industry flourished, will also promote the development of downstream industries. Because without driver control, machine vision systems, sensors, artificial intelligence and other new members will replac the steering wheel, accelerator, brakes and other essential new generation of automotive parts, electronic components and other new technologies, or usher in one trillion yuan level market scale. "In fact, no one around the car a new industry chain is taking shape," said Jia Xinguang, for example to the Beijing Daily reporter, an unmanned vehicle driving assist future transportation systems, mobile communications systems and large data industry, we will have more plenty of market demand.
