In 2018, autonomous driving is still hot in China. Policies continue to be supported, and various cities have opened up smart connected vehicle test areas. Technology companies and auto companies have joined forces to develop autonomous driving technology. Compared with self-driving passenger cars, the logistics and transportation industries have more urgent needs for self-driving commercial vehicles. Perhaps the trucking industry will realize the commercial landing of autonomous driving faster.

On January 18, 2019, in the Lingang District of Shanghai, the two heavy trucks of Huanyu Zhixing achieved their first self-driving show in a networked team. In the entire demonstration experience section, the self-driving trucks of Huanyu Zhixing completed the functions of following the car starting, low-speed ACC, congestion mode, high-speed ACC, autonomous overtaking, social vehicle cut-in, two-car formation driving, single-vehicle automatic driving and other functions. , The whole driving process is achieved by someone sticking to it but without taking over the whole process, smoothly and smoothly;

The self-developed TITAN3 domain controller is installed on the Universal Autonomous Driving Truck, which can be connected to major sensors such as lidar, camera, and millimeter wave radar. Through fusion technology, the visual environment within a few hundred meters in front can be interpreted and analyzed, which can be achieved Autonomous driving of trucks in open scenes such as trunk logistics and semi-closed scenes such as harbor terminals.

As of the end of 2018, the overall size of the global logistics and transportation market was 12.8 trillion US dollars, and it is expected to maintain a compound annual growth rate of 10% over the next ten years. In China, where e-commerce is rampant, the overall logistics industry accounts for about 25% of GDP, which is nearly 4 trillion US dollars, of which road transport accounts for 75%. Huanyu Zhixing aims at the "intercity freight" market. The highest operating costs for logistics companies are fuel and labor costs. It takes a long way to completely replace the driver. At this stage, what the autonomous driving can do is to reduce the wind resistance, save fuel consumption, improve driving safety, and reduce the driver's work intensity through the formation of trucks with limited conditions. Two drivers jointly test the formation of two trucks on the highway. Although the two vehicles have basic automatic driving functions and the vehicles communicate with each other, they still need to be monitored by the driver throughout the journey. The first step of the automatic driving heavy truck landing, the cycle will probably last 2-3 years. Then with the gradual formation of autonomous driving technology and related industry support, the vehicles in the formation can realize the driving of the first car and the unmanned driving of the car. In 2025-2027, the driver will be completely separated from the driver in most highway scenes and specific geographic fences to achieve automatic driving, provided that the traffic signal system communicates with all vehicles, but it is still affected by weather and other factors. It is estimated that around 2030, after fully developed in the previous stages, trucks with automatic driving functions will no longer be limited to the highway system, and can also be driven normally on other roads, and there is no driving from loading to unloading. Staff participation. This is a "gradual" evolution path of a self-driving truck logistics scenario adopted by Huanyu Zhixing after full analysis.

Huanyu Zhixing expects that the autonomous driving solutions they provide can reduce the cost of the logistics industry by 30%.

In the test demonstration in Shanghai Lingang, the two heavy trucks of Huanyu Zhixing were formed through an intelligent network connection system, and the first car led, directly copied the movement of the first car from the car and then made the same driving action, such as Following, turning, emergency parking, etc. During this process, the truck driver can completely free his hands and feet and take over the vehicle when there is an emergency reminder, which greatly reduces the labor intensity and driving efficiency.

Self-driving trucks can directly improve driving safety and economy, greatly reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents and the consumption of energy and labor costs, and realize the comprehensive intelligent management of people, vehicles and goods during the operation of trucks, and finally meet the requirements of efficient transportation. demand.
