BEIJING, April 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Baidu, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIDU and HKEX: 9888) ("Baidu" or the "Company"), a leading AI company with strong internet foundations, today held an automotive intelligence conference on the eve of Auto Shanghai 2023. During the conference, Baidu released a series of new products covering intelligent driving, intelligent cabin, and intelligent maps. Additionally, Baidu introduced four new key-capabilities for car manufacturers in the newly released "Baidu Apollo Self Driving Openness White Paper ".
At the conference, Rob Chu, Baidu Corporate Vice President and GM of Apollo Self Driving, and Shan Jizhang, Founder and CEO of Black Sesame Semiconductor announced that Black Sesame Semiconductor will become the latest chip partner to Baidu Apollo Smart Driving. Additionally, Apollo Highway Driving Pro will be deployed on the Black Sesame's Huashan II A1000 chip computing platform, which will be officially released in Q3 this year. This partnership marks a deeper collaboration between Chinese smart driving solutions and Chinese smart chipsets, which will further accelerate the smart manufacturing of China's automotive industry.
The automobile industry is now in a moment of radical change. Baidu predicts that by 2026, the market penetration rate of models equipped with the L2+ advanced intelligent driving solution, valet parking highway navigation pilot and city navigation pilot will exceed 15%, ushering in a transition period in intelligent vehicle industry.
"In 2026, when intelligent cars become more prevalent, new customers will be less likely to consider cars without intelligent driving capabilities," said Zhenyu Li, Senior Corporate Vice President of Baidu and president of the Intelligent Driving Business Group. Rob Chu, Baidu Corporate Vice President and GM of Apollo Self Driving explained, "Whoever can take the lead in providing consumers with a safe and secure intelligent driving experience will likely have a head start in the second half of the intelligent car competition."
Baidu Apollo launched its flagship intelligent driving solution, Apollo City Driving Max, which is equipped with dual Nvidia Orin X with 508 TOPS arithmetic power. This is the only solution in China that offers users a coherent experience on urban roads using pure vision perception. The current product definition also includes LIDAR to achieve "pure vision + LIDAR" true perception redundancy. The product uses a "lightweight high HD map" that is nearly 80% "lighter" than the traditional HD maps, enabling rapid urban generalization at a more reasonable cost.
Baidu's integrated auto-navigation plus valet parking solution Apollo Highway Driving Pro has also completed an algorithm platform upgrade. With the latest single TDA4-VH platform, the AI and CPU computing power usage is 50% less compared to the previous TDA4-VH platform. It is expected to enable more intelligent driving and parking functionality at lower computing power and lower cost. Baidu Apollo and Voyah, an EV manufacturer backed by DONGFENG Motor, also announced the Voyah FREE, an all-electric and plug-in-hybrid 5-seater SUV, will be equipped with Apollo Highway Driving Pro, which includes assisted driving functions such as highway navigation pilot, city autopilot and efficient parking in all scenarios.
In terms of smart maps, Baidu Apollo has upgraded its in-vehicle navigation maps with different levels of quality, performance and real-time data. The newly released shared autonomy maps provide a new human-vehicle interface and enhance users' trust in smart driving solutions. Simultaneously, Baidu's HD maps have been upgraded to OneMap, which can quickly update map data in real time.
Baidu Apollo released the "Baidu Apollo Self Driving Openness White Paper", announcing four key capabilities: open experience definition, open independent experience evolution, open full-cycle OTA services, and open co-create with car manufacturing partners. Baidu's goal is to help car manufacturing partners to achieve a leading position and commercial success in intelligent driving, while ensuring quality end-user experiences.
Pre SOP phase, Baidu Apollo can open up the human-machine interaction interface, core capability SDK and underlying soft interfaces in the form of APIs and SOA services, enabling car companies to define and implement human-machine interaction interfaces and intelligent driving styles in line with their own brand positioning and target audience, and even participate in the technical aspects of smart driving control to improve end-user experience.
In the longer term (e.g. 3 years) post SOP, if automotive companies want their models to continue to enjoy the capabilities and experience of Baidu Apollo's main line of intelligent driving products, Baidu Apollo will also provide them with corresponding solutions, such as in the form of quarterly OTAs, to ensure the quality of their models' smart driving capabilities.
At the same time, Baidu Apollo will also provide technical support and training to the product, R&D and delivery teams of car companies by setting up a joint product committee in cooperation with them to collaboratively build a more complete intelligent driving ecosystem.
This type of driving is one of the things that makes cars like this go for 300k miles or more before it is used up. A human analogy might be the difference between an athlete jogging five miles (highway driving to a car) and doing five miles worth of shuttle runs (city driving to a car).
The engine and the metals used in it are designed to operate at certain temperatures.
With highway driving the metals will expand and pretty much stay there instead of going through repeated expanding and contracting cycles.
Hi all, I am a complete newbie about cars and this is my first time buying one. My wife and I both drive hatchbacks (she drives a Baleno, and I am driving an i20) and we are planning to upgrade to CSUV or Sedans. We live in Delhi and have to drive during busy office hours for 5-6 days a week.
Edit: Forgot to mention that currently I am leaning towards MG Astor (i like how it looks) and my wife towards City/Verna. We have also considered the current crop of EV cars under 30L but slightly worried that buying an EV this early might backfire on us.
After watching a road safety video young drivers can take the wheel of their very own electric car and work their way around our LEGO city roads encountering traffic lights, roundabouts, LEGO policemen and even a speed camera.
This page provides the chassis dynamometer driving schedules and shift schedules used by EPA for vehicle emissions and fuel economy testing. This page also provides detailed information on those drive schedules in addition to technical information on drive schedules used by states, Europe, and Japan for reference.
The EPA Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule (UDDS) is commonly called the "LA4" or "the city test" and represents city driving conditions. It is used for light duty vehicle testing. The UN/ECE Regulation 53 refers to the EPA UDDS as the "Test Equivalent to the Type 1 Test (verifying emissions after a cold start)."
Urban or city driving involves a variety of complex driving situations. Spaces are limited; you deal with lots of cars, bicyclists, pedestrians, buses and one-way streets. If you are driving too fast and don't pay attention, you can hit a person, parked car, or make a sudden stop or maneuver which could cause other drivers to collide with your vehicle. In city driving, you should be prepared to stop or slow down suddenly. Cover braking provides a smooth transition from acceleration to braking and is effective for slowing in reduced stopping distances. During heavy traffic it is very important to maintain a proper distance between vehicles in your front, side, and rear zones. Also be aware of brake lights, since it is very common for the flow of traffic to suddenly slow or even come to a complete stop.
The motion instructed city staff to compile a report to outline state mandates that prevent the city from regulating autonomous vehicles and to find ways to leverage data collected by self-driving car companies.
In 2023, 12 of these crashes happened in Los Angeles County. However, all these crashes involved the self-driving car as the victim, according to the DMW reports. In two examples, bicyclists crashed into the vehicle and left the scene. In another, a pipe struck a car as it drove on the I-710 Freeway.

First of all I never thought I could drive and here i am with a valid driving license. My life is been made easy by Ms Ross and Motor City Driving Academy. She knew what my strengths were and she helped me overcome all my weaknesses. So if you feel you can never drive but have to try , these people will bring the driver out of you and in small time you gain the confidence ,patience and motivation to drive... Highly recommended this place...
