In recent years the two highest topic of discussion automobile industry, first electric car, the second is the autopilot, but after entering in 2019, sustained and rapid development of electric vehicles, but the autopilot seems to have encountered development bottlenecks. Although low-level technology began to spread to the production car, but higher-order technology is still nowhere in sight, the situation there may be significant changes in 2020.
autopilot systems require detection device to help confirm the surrounding environment, vehicles, obstacles, and so on. Common detection device with an infrared radar, ultrasonic radar, millimeter-wave radar, LIDAR, both optical lens, the former has a very low cost advantage, but the distance is too short and the detection accuracy is not high shortcomings, not destined for automatic driving on the system.
to detect light of the advantage of long distance, high precision, fast response, 360 degree detection, is the most suitable one for automatic driving apparatus, but is difficult to use because of the high cost of commercial ships production cars. So now the production car’s autopilot system or advanced driver assistance systems, most optical lens or millimeter-wave radar, or both and is used as the mainstream.
However, 2020 began, Bosch announced the good news, which is likely to shake the existing autopilot eco-development, high-grade autopilot technology to accelerate production of decentralization. That is, this CES show, Bosch will launch a low-cost light of the latest development, the future can be a Group 3 car detecting device, the dead autopilot system to a minimum.
LiDAR LIDAR is an abbreviation for Light Detection And Ranging, i.e. the optical distance measuring apparatus was measured, to measure laser medium, ambient brightness will not be affected, and 360 degrees is not dead, greatly complement the main drawback for radar and camera in front of the vehicle. But not without weaknesses light up, because the laser light is used to detect, and therefore encounter rain, fog, snow will be affected when this type of weather.
increases as the third group of light detection means there is an obvious advantage, that is, the ability to identify pedestrians and bicycles can be obtainedUpgrade. Detecting light of a narrow object includes the ability, which is weak radar, optical lens and also reduce the rate of success in identifying dark scenes.
in the past limited by the cost factor can not be installed up to complement other light detection system of the dead, Bosch launched the low-cost light up, the problem will be resolved. The future might be able to expect better, fewer errors, higher recognition rate autopilot system appears in the cheap production car.
