Shanghai Intelligent Connected Automobile's large-scale demonstration application launches Didi Autonomous Driving, first landing in Jiading
Sino-Singapore Online, June 27 (Reporter Miao Lu) Driving, turning smoothly, slowing down at a red light, and avoiding pedestrians in advance... Didi's self-driving vehicles have already behaved like an "old driver". Shanghai's first batch of intelligent connected cars first opened an experience service appointment on the Didi APP on the 27th. Didi's automatic driving took the lead in landing in Jiading, marking the launch of the Shanghai Intelligent Connected Car's large-scale demonstration application.
Since September last year, when Shanghai issued the first batch of intelligent networked vehicle manned demonstration application licenses, Didi became the first officially launched project. In order to ensure safety, Didi has deployed safety officers on the vehicle as required by the government to respond to emergencies at any time and take over the vehicle. In addition, Didi has set up a safety escort center to monitor the vehicle's driving status in real time and provide remote assistance when necessary.

At present, according to traffic regulations and other regulations, autonomous vehicles need to ensure driving safety and get on and off at fixed stations. According to the person in charge of Didi's autonomous driving, users who have registered in advance and have passed the approval can choose to call nearby idle autonomous vehicles if the starting and ending points of the travel route are within the operating range of autonomous driving.
It is reported that after users register on the Didi app and pass the review, they can make an appointment to experience Didi automatic driving, and passengers can pass through the office area, subway station, and Shanghai Automobile Exhibition Center. Zhang Bo, the head of Didi Autonomous Driving, said that this is Didi’s first future urban transportation trip project, and it is also the first time Didi Autopilot has opened a large-scale open service to the public. The service combines vehicle-road collaboration, autonomous driving technology, and shared travel A variety of future travel technologies and solutions such as the Internet will continue to expand to larger areas in the future.
The driving technology of Didi's self-driving vehicles is like an "old driver". In fact, it has gone through more than four years from the "small road test" to the "big road test".

In June 2016, the first “National Intelligent Connected Vehicle (Shanghai) Pilot Demonstration Zone” approved by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology was officially opened in Jiading Shanghai International Automobile City, and intelligent connected vehicle testing and smart transportation demonstrations were carried out.
Here, the intelligent connected car has passed steep slopes, drove through tunnels, experienced different road conditions such as masonry, dirt roads and grasslands, and also withstood the tests of rain, snow, high temperature and strong winds, and "practiced" with traffic lights in different scenarios. Real-time communication of roadside intelligent communication equipment, etc. Over the past 4 years, the test area has provided more than 1,300 days and 10,000 hours of testing services to nearly 100 domestic and foreign companies.
On March 1, 2018, Shanghai issued the first batch of intelligent connected car open road test licenses, so that the excellent people of the "small road test" drove out of the closed test area and came to the open road of cars to accept the "big road test".
Up to now, Jiading's open roads that can be used for intelligent connected car testing have reached 53.6 kilometers, covering an area of 65 square kilometers, involving different types and grades of roads, with 1580 test scenarios, and extending the activities of intelligent connected cars to industry Districts, business districts, transportation hubs, residential areas and other life scenes. The first intelligent driving holographic scene library in China has also been established in the test area, which has accumulated in-depth investigation data of 2000 traffic accidents and completed the extraction of more than 20 types of scenes.
In addition, self-driving vehicles can take the lead in running on the streets of Jiading, and cannot do without Jiading's pioneering layout in the field of "new infrastructure". On an open test road of 53.6 kilometers, 5G signals have achieved full coverage, high-precision map acquisition has been completed, and a batch of V2X vehicle-road cooperative application systems, holographic road perception systems, safety supervision and monitoring platforms, roadside smart terminals, etc. have been built Serving the infrastructure of intelligent transportation, it fully supports intelligent connected vehicles to make great strides towards demonstration applications and commercial operations.
At the same time that Didi successfully "tested water", a total of 20 car companies including Shanghai Automobile and BMW have obtained 78 intelligent network-connected car test licenses, a batch of intelligent network-connected special vehicles such as Pioneer, Neolithic, etc. It has implemented a series of functions such as unmanned cleaning, mobile unmanned retail, and unmanned distribution in specific areas. Automated driving companies such as AUTOX and Xiaoma Zhixing will also launch autonomous driving demonstration projects.
At present, there are more than 90 intelligent connected automobile-related enterprises in the Jiading area, including foreign-funded parts companies such as Continental, Schaeffler and Valeo, as well as domestic parts and travel service companies such as Horizon, Ophelia and Didi. At the same time, the world's first 5G smart transportation demonstration area and the national-level intelligent connected vehicle cloud control platform are advancing in an orderly manner, accelerating the realization of large-scale demonstration operations of intelligent connected vehicles.
"It can be said that the industrial ecosystem of smart connected cars is accelerating improvement in Jiading." Lu Zufang, member of the Standing Committee of Jiading District Committee and Minister of United Front Work and executive deputy group leader of the construction leadership group of the world-class automobile industry center in Jiading District, said, "Jiading will continue to be intelligent Demonstration application and commercial trial operation of Connected Vehicles are well supported, and the demonstration application environment is constantly improved to realize the demonstration operation of 100 highly autonomous vehicles in normal application scenarios as soon as possible."
