Policy introduction accelerates the commercialization of autonomous driving
2023-11-24
Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Housing and Urban Rural Development, and the Ministry of Transport jointly issued a notice on conducting pilot projects for the access and road use of intelligent connected vehicles, officially launching the pilot projects for the access and road use of intelligent connected vehicles. Industry experts said that the introduction of this policy is conducive to accelerating the mass production of high-class autonomous vehicle and helping China to take the lead in the global auto driving industry competition. According to reports, intelligent connected vehicles integrate various innovative technologies such as the Internet of Things, cloud computing, big data, and artificial intelligence, making them a new competitive focus for the development of emerging industries worldwide. Currently, global autonomous driving has entered a critical period of commercialization and implementation. Europe, the United States, Japan and other countries and regions have promoted the mass production of L3 and above autonomous vehicle through driving certification, exemption and other means, providing policy support for autonomous vehicle 'legal compliance "on the road". In recent years, China's intelligent connected vehicles have achieved positive results in terms of industrial scale, key technologies, and demonstration applications, making them a leader in global automotive intelligence. According to the data of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, in the first half of this year, the market penetration rate of China's intelligent connected passenger vehicles equipped with auxiliary auto drive system reached 42.4%. The country has opened more than 15000 kilometers of roads for intelligent connected vehicle testing, and the total road testing mileage is more than 70 million kilometers. According to Guo Shougang, Deputy Director of the Equipment Industry Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, in terms of demonstration applications, China is orderly carrying out multi scenario demonstration applications such as autonomous driving taxis, unmanned buses, autonomous passenger parking, trunk logistics, and unmanned distribution. In terms of the development of connected vehicles, 17 testing demonstration zones, 16 "dual intelligence" pilot cities, and 7 national connected vehicle demonstration zones in China have completed the intelligent upgrading and renovation of over 7000 kilometers of roads. While expanding in scale, breakthroughs have also been made in key technologies. The new generation of electronic and electrical architecture, automotive operating systems, and high computing power computing chips have been implemented for vehicle applications, with breakthroughs in cross domain fusion and controller technology. The high-performance LiDAR sensing range has reached 250 meters. Currently, L2 level autonomous driving models are widely used, and multiple car companies are ready to mass produce L3 level vehicles. In contrast, China is relatively cautious in formulating policies for high-level autonomous driving, and the rapid increase in market penetration makes it urgent to promote the development and application of higher-level autonomous driving technology. The analysis from the China Electric Vehicle Hundred Talents Association shows that the Notice issued this time is mainly for autonomous vehicle above the national standard level 3 (L3), and the contents of the document clarify the relevant requirements for the access, user, road access, pilot suspension and exit of ICVs. The Notice has several key points: firstly, the policy scope is more universal, and cities at or above the prefecture level (including those under the direct control of municipalities) that meet the requirements can apply for pilot projects, indicating that autonomous driving road testing will gradually be carried out nationwide. The second is to innovate the way of forming consortia, and how to form consortia that meet the requirements is the key to whether cities can be approved for pilot projects. Thirdly, there are over 300 mentions of "security" throughout the entire text, covering various aspects such as vehicle operation security, network security, and data security.
