Here, the real-time integration of the physical environment and complex traffic flows will take place.
Recently, a new integrated intelligent driving laboratory began operations in the centrally administered city of Chongqing /Southwest China/, capable of simultaneously modeling real vehicles, dynamic road traffic, and climatic conditions.
According to China Media Corporation, this laboratory, covering more than 5,000 square meters, is the world's first full-cycle testing ground that combines vehicle motion control simulation, conditions of rain, fog, and lighting, as well as complex traffic flows. This allows for the creation of a more realistic and effective system for testing intelligent driving.
According to available information, the laboratory will provide comprehensive validation of the safety of vehicles with intelligent driving systems before they enter mass production, covering both extreme and realistic scenarios. The goal is to strengthen the technological base and enhance the safety of future intelligent mobility, as well as support the high-quality development of the intelligent vehicle industry.
It is worth noting that this laboratory has developed an intelligent towing system for the first time, which is a mechanism capable of towing vehicles at speeds of up to 130 km/h, exceeding the industry standard of 100 km/h. This allows for the precise reproduction of the behavior of road participants, including scenarios with the sudden appearance of pedestrians.
Additionally, the laboratory is equipped with an environment-adjustable system that continuously changes the parameters of rain, fog, and lighting, realistically recreating dynamic weather changes.
Another breakthrough is the real-time integration of the physical environment and complex traffic flows. Here, real vehicles can instantly interact with simulated traffic under realistic conditions, addressing the issue of fragmentation typical of traditional laboratory tests.
It is worth recalling that Chinese authorities have identified at least 20 cities and urban clusters as pilot zones for the implementation of the "vehicle-road-cloud" integration for intelligent connected vehicles.
