Blue Star Motors' application for fully autonomous driving technology certification was also reported by the media. If it were just a newly established car company, it might not have received such high public attention, but Blue Star Motors is a company under the Deep Space Technology Group
, which made the public pay a lot more attention to it.
The automotive media, in particular, put this news in the headlines: "Bluestar Motors, a subsidiary of Deep Space Technology, announced that it has developed L5 fully autonomous driving technology, and the field of driverless driving may usher in new changes!"
Fang Yida: "When did Deep Space Technology develop automotive technology? Don't they make mobile phones?"
People you follow: "Deep Space Technology is obviously selling pork, you fake fan!"
Users 174~45: "No need for a steering wheel and a driver? What should I do if I encounter danger?"
No one is young anymore: "I used to like driving when I didn't have a car, but now that I have a car, I feel that driving is really tiring. I hope this technology can be promoted!"
Serious man: "L5, I remember the highest now is only L4, right? By the way, how about the cars produced by Blue Star Motors?"
The most charming and dangerous one: "I just want to know what configurations this car has? Is it as high-end as a Mars smartphone?"
…
On the Bihu app, “What do you think of Blue Star Auto’s application for L5 fully autonomous driving certification? Is this technology really safe?”
Zhong Liang, a certified expert in the field of automotive technology and automation, answered this question: "Thank you for the invitation. I have been engaged in autonomous driving technology research for eight years. I am currently working at the Qiandu Autonomous Driving Research Institute. I believe that I am qualified in this regard."
Zhi is more professional.”
"I am also concerned about the topic's mention of Blue Star Auto's L5 fully autonomous driving technology. There is very little information disclosed so far, but through some information (data links) we can find that Blue Star Auto was established less than a year ago."
"The first time they tested driverless technology was three months ago. I have been in contact with their research team before. It is the team of Professor Hou Yuquan of Shanghai Jiaotong University. Their team has done some research on driverless technology.
But at most it has only reached the L2 partial autonomous driving level.”
"In the past three months, Blue Star Motors has not obtained an L4 test license or commercial license. They directly applied for L5 certification, which is unprecedented in the world."
"I think it's impossible! This news is most likely a hype! Think about it, Blue Star is about to start production. It's time to release the news of L5 fully autonomous driving certification. I don't need to say more about the purpose.
Bar?"
"Also, let me say a few words about autonomous driving technology. Currently, the most powerful company in this field in the world is General Motors of the United States. They can only achieve the L4 level at present. In China, we have achieved thousands of autonomous driving tests.
The technology can be said to be unparalleled!”
“We have the largest number of autonomous driving road test licenses in the country, more than 1,000 smart driving patents, more than 3 million kilometers of testing mileage, testing in more than 23 cities, more than 36,000 global developers, and 177 partners.
Our Apollo Autonomous Autonomous Driving Intelligent Platform is also the world’s first and most comprehensive intelligent commercial autonomous driving solution platform.”
"After doing so much, we only obtained the L4 license. Blue Star Motor's data and research time are far behind us. In summary, Blue Star Motor's L5 certification is most likely a marketing ploy. If you don't believe it, wait for OICA
Just look for the (International Association of Automobile Manufacturers) certification.”
This answer quickly became the most popular, with many people agreeing with it. Most of the other answers also had this idea.
Beijing, Qiandu Group Building, President's Office.
Ye Hongyan, the president of Qiandu Group, is looking at the company's evaluation report on Blue Star Automobile's application for certification of L5 fully autonomous driving technology. For them, this competitor cannot be underestimated.
Qiandu Group used to be one of the three major Internet companies in China, along with Ali and Penguin Group. But after entering the mobile Internet era, Qiandu Group's investments have repeatedly failed, and it is no longer one of the three giants.
In the end, Qiandu Group chose to invest in artificial intelligence and driverless technology. Fortunately, they made a mistake this time. Currently, Qiandu Group’s driverless technology ranks first in China. This first place is limited to Blue Star Motors.
There is no release application for L5 technology certification before.
"Mr. Ye." In front of Ye Hongyan, it was Dr. Zhong Liang from Qiandu Group's autonomous driving technology research team. He said: "Just like the analysis report I wrote online, there is no way that Blue Star Automobile can operate in just three years.
The development and testing of L5 fully autonomous driving technology will be completed within this month."
"Our L4 technology has only been approved by the transportation department after several years of research and development and road testing. So we don't have to worry too much about letting them disrupt our own rhythm."
"Behind Blue Star Car is deep space technology. You can't be cautious!" Ye Hongyan said solemnly.
He thought for a moment and then issued an order. Soon, almost all news about Blue Star Automobile was deleted from Qiandu’s search platform and media platform.
There have also been some self-media posts that reproduced Zhong Liang’s comments on Blue Star Automobile’s L5 fully automated technology. They all agreed that this was a hype and marketing ploy.
However, in the current Internet information field, Qiandu is no longer the only one, so this will not have a big impact on Lanxing Automobile.
Ye Hongyan knew that it would ultimately depend on the OICA certification results.
…
Representatives of the International Association of Automobile Manufacturers, Secretary-General Freeman, and technical committee member Takahashi Kengo of the association's technical committee came to China to prepare for certification and appraisal of Blue Star Automobile's technology.
After learning of the news, representatives from China's transportation department and the Automobile Industry Association also participated. They also wanted to know whether Blue Star Motors has mastered this technology.
The first step is to conduct some software and hardware testing. In this regard, Blue Star Automobile has no problems. It fully meets all the requirements for driverless cars. Next, there is the actual road test.
"Mr. Freeman, representative of Kengo Takahashi, in order to better demonstrate our fully autonomous driving technology. On this road test road, we simulated a variety of extreme driving conditions to test our autonomous driving system. All aspects,
You can all check." Hou Yuquan said.
"We will inspect it carefully!" Takahashi Kengo said seriously. As a representative of the technical committee, he not only inspected it carefully, but also reached a level of harshness!
Kengo Takahashi remembered what the senior officials of the island country warned him, "We have spent a lot of effort to let you be the representative this time. You must check out their problems and not let them pass the certification smoothly!"
"There is no way you will pass the certification!" Takahashi Kengo thought to himself, and he ordered the technicians, "All links and all details must be checked! There can be no problems!"
The technicians followed the instructions, but in the end no major problem was found.
Kengo Takahashi looked a little unhappy, and Meng Xiaobai said, "It's time to start."
"Well, that's okay." Freeman nodded.
On the side, Chen Dong, a representative of the transportation department, and Yin Guokang, a representative of the China Automobile Industry Association, also started their own work. They had to supervise and inspect the situation throughout the process, and make assessments and records.
The test began, and an unmanned Blue Star new energy vehicle drove onto the test road.
On this test car, there is not only no driver, but also no steering wheel. On the test road, there are various roadblocks, pedestrian models, pet models, car models, ice and snow roads, pothole roads, etc.
When the car is driving, these emergencies will occur. In the final stage, the car will even be deliberately caused to have a tire blowout and other failures to test its driverless safety.
The test began, and the Blue Star driverless car began to drive on the test road, with drones following and monitoring the entire process.
In the monitoring screen, the car is driving very steadily and in accordance with traffic regulations. When encountering simulated vehicles or obstacles, the car can detect and avoid them in time.
Everyone was calm about this part of the journey because they believed that Blue Star Motors still had the technology, and the most important thing was the intense driving and emergency handling behind it.
On the road, props have been arranged long ago, and the car rushes out from all unexpected angles and crashes into the self-driving car.
Cars can sense in advance through sensors and monitoring equipment and brake, slow down and avoid.
Including simulated collisions of cars, battery cars, bicycles, people or pets, the autonomous driving system operated correctly time and time again without any accidents.
Seeing this, Chen Dong and Yin Guokang both nodded slightly. Judging from the current situation, the intelligence level of this autonomous driving can fully reach the L4 level.
Freeman and Kengo Takahashi looked at the surveillance footage without saying a word.
Soon, the dangerous test phase came. Under various harsh road conditions, Blue Star cars could drive safely, even better than humans.
It's the final stage. This time, the set opportunity will blow out one of the car's tires, causing the car to become unbalanced while driving at high speed. Let's see how the intelligent system handles it.
Everyone cheered up and stared at the surveillance screen.
In fact, this link was not included in the test, but Blue Star Automobile itself actively requested to display it.
In the picture, the Blue Star car began to accelerate, and soon the speed reached 120km/h.
At this moment, the mechanism was triggered, and a steel bullet shot through the left front wheel of the car, causing the car to lose its balance.
Everyone couldn't help but become nervous, especially Chen Dong, the representative of the transportation department. He had seen too many car accidents. Generally, in this kind of situation, even an experienced driver with more than ten years of driving experience would find it difficult to deal with it, and in the end he would inevitably be involved in the accident.
The ending where Fan Ren is in danger.
The inertia of the car was causing the car to roll over, but the autonomous driving system immediately detected the abnormal state of the car and began to activate the emergency adjustment mode.
