Autonomous vehicle status information acquired by the road sensor and a laser radar device, the central computing system of the vehicle information is processed, then control of autonomous vehicles direction, speed and the like.
Depending on the degree of automation, the International Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) will be divided into autonomous vehicles from L0 to L5 total of six levels, where L5 is the highest level reached this level of autonomous vehicles have basically does not require personnel involved in the control, L5 is second only to L4, this level of autonomous vehicles has also been highly automated driving ability, and only in a small number of cases only need to deal with human intervention, from the party situation revealed by Wen bolt of view, Huawei focused L4 level is autopilot.
As a field of the automotive industry in recent years a hot topic and Apple, Google and other companies are optimistic about the auto industry is driving tremendous business opportunities, and there will be good growth momentum, research institutes expect the size of the market autonomous vehicles this year will reach $ 54.23 billion in 2026 will grow to $ 556.67 billion.
