According to foreign media reports, Xiaoma Zhixing is a California based auto start-up company dedicated to building safe, reliable and effective solutions and systems for autonomous driving. Recently, Oma Chiyuki (Pony.ai) co founder and CEO Peng Jun at the East Tech West conference, said: "we will see the widespread popularity of autopilot cars, fully automatic driving vehicles will appear on the open road. If I have to say a number, I think it will probably take another five years. " On November 4, smart pony, together with Hyundai Motor, launched the self driving taxi service botride in a specific area of California, the United States, initially for free use by residents. The total mileage of Xiaoma Zhixing automatic driving test has exceeded one million kilometers, and it has officially entered into the track of more than one million kilometers, and has entered stable road test or operation in Beijing, Guangzhou, Fremont, Irvine and other places in the United States. Peng Jun believes that many vehicles on the road, as well as the behavior of pedestrians and riders, are not all logical, and these factors make it difficult to predict the AI system. The development of automatic driving technology is still slow in the industry. Automatic driving is interpreted according to steps, including perception layer, decision-making layer and implementation layer. The vehicle senses the surrounding driving environment through the vehicle sensor equipment, further plans the driving route and mode with the help of the algorithm, and finally feeds back to the control system through the chip for practical operations such as braking, steering control, etc. Peng Jun said: some American enterprises are still in the leading position in the field of automatic driving. At this stage, the most important two purposes of automatic driving are to reduce driving risk, improve safety, and then reduce costs to achieve mass production. China is also catching up as fast as possible.
