At present, the intelligent development of automobiles is the trend of the times, intelligent parking as one of its functions is gradually mentioned by the public, but for this function, different users have different views, some people feel practical, some people think that chicken ribs, even car companies focus on him is also different.
The i-VISTA results were released, and the performance of the vehicles was different
Judging from the latest batch of test results released by the domestic third-party intelligent vehicle test platform i-VISTA, the same off-road model of fuel vehicles, tank 300 and Subaru Auror tiger have shown a completely different level of performance.
As a leading and authoritative third-party test and evaluation system in China, i-VISTA China Intelligent Vehicle Index has undergone many revisions, and the latest version of the regulations comprehensively evaluates intelligent networked vehicles from 5 aspects, such as intelligent driving, intelligent parking, intelligent safety, intelligent interaction, and intelligent energy efficiency (of which intelligent energy efficiency is only carried out for new energy vehicles), after the implementation of the new version of the regulations, there have been four batches of 8 models participating in the evaluation of the i-VISTA China Intelligent Vehicle Index.
In this test, the overall score of the Tank 300 is 5 stars, while the Subaru Auhoo score is only 2 stars.
Among them, tank 300 has obtained G (excellent) results in intelligent driving, intelligent safety and intelligent interaction, and A (good) results in intelligent parking projects. Subaru Aohu has received G, A, and P (poor) evaluations in terms of intelligent safety, intelligent driving, and intelligent interaction, and does not have intelligent parking functions.
The market attitude is polarized and controversial
As part of the intelligent driver assistance system, the two models show such a big difference in the intelligent parking project. It is not difficult to find that the current intelligent parking function is generally controversial in the market.
According to the data survey, many young users regard the intelligent parking function as one of the selection criteria for buying a car. For novices or households with difficulty reversing, intelligent parking is simply a great blessing, which perfectly solves the problem of parking difficulties. For those friends who have a full score of two and a reverse car into the warehouse, the existence of the intelligent parking function is a bit chicken ribs.
For example, the owner of the car, Mr. Wang, as an "old driver" who has been on the road for ten years, this function is dispensable for him, "intelligent parking is very convenient, but I can completely pour it myself, there is no need to spend more money for that function, the system is the system after all, in case it fails one day, the unfortunate crash is ourselves." ”
The above two very different views are also the true portrayal of current consumers, and perhaps many people hold the same view as Lao Wang, believing that smart parking is a chicken rib for "old drivers". But I would like to say that the current development of intelligent parking functions has far exceeded everyone's imagination, including but not limited to the scope of "reversing into the warehouse".
The current state of intelligent parking technology
First reach a common understanding, the intelligent parking assistance in the 2020 version of the i-VISTA protocol belongs to the auxiliary parking in the parking automation level. According to the level of intelligence of the parking system, intelligent parking technology can be divided into parking reminder, auxiliary parking and automatic parking.
The first stage of intelligent parking mainly plays a reminder role, the system in the search for parking spaces or vehicle parking and parking process to provide drivers with parking reminders, does not have vehicle control functions. The system for this phase is a parking reminder. Like the reversing image and reversing radar that everyone now commonly uses, in fact, it is the early intelligent parking technology, which belongs to the parking reminder.
The second phase of the intelligent parking system began to be associated with automation, the system only has the vehicle parking and parking control functions, not at the same time has the function of searching for parking spaces, global path planning and vehicle guidance control, but requires continuous monitoring and takeover by the driver. The system at this stage is parking assistance. Common technologies are APS and RPA, APS, also known as parking assistance system, can ensure that the vehicle in the low-speed driving state, by detecting the surrounding environment automatically looking for vacant parking spaces, automatically reversing into the warehouse, but requiring the driver can not get off the car, in order to facilitate the response to unexpected situations at any time.
The third phase of the intelligent parking system with vehicle parking and parking control functions, does not require continuous driver monitoring and takeover, this stage of the system is automatic parking system. At present, some models that promote intelligent parking functions as the selling point have reached this stage. For example, Changan's second-generation CS75 PLUS, without manual intervention, after the user gets off the car with a key remote control, the parking system will automatically identify the parking space, automatically reverse into the warehouse and turn off, the whole process is completed by the system. However, consumers are generally required to be near the car, and if they encounter unexpected situations, users can stop remotely in time.
The third stage of the intelligent parking system belongs to the application of automatic parking system, including HPP and AVP, HPP means home memory parking, also known as memory parking system, the user in the common parking lot scene system will automatically record the storage data, when the user drives again to these locations, the system will automatically call out the user's common parking routes and parking locations, to achieve parking space search and automatic parking into the garage.
AVP refers to the autonomous valet parking system, when the driver arrives at the destination, you can get off the car, let the vehicle find a place to park, love where to park, when the car is needed to use the car, and then remotely summon the vehicle back, the realization of the function is very technically demanding.
At present, WM W6 realizes the unmanned learning parking function (HAVP) in the parking lot, which can be controlled by mobile phones, and can be stopped at any time in case of emergency, and the vehicle will automatically brake. Xiaopeng enabled P7 to achieve memory parking (HPP) in the parking lot through OTA updates, and every time the same scene is walked, the vehicle will verify whether the previous algorithm is correct. That is to say, the more Xiaopeng P7 walks in the parking lot, the higher the accuracy of remembering parking.
Intelligent parking function may have been chicken in the past, but now it has shown more scene applicability, and with the development of science and technology in the future, its significance to people is not just as simple as reversing. In the fully automatic parking stage, the system can fully take over and control the vehicle parking and parking spaces and search for parking spaces, global path planning, vehicle guidance control functions, without the need for driver participation. At that time, perhaps for the old driver, the intelligent parking function is no longer chicken ribs.
The future development trend of intelligent parking
Intelligence is the core of China's passenger car market in recent years, data show that in 2020, the market penetration rate of mainland L2-level intelligent networked passenger cars reached 15%, at present, Geely, Changan, WM, BYD, Xiaopeng and other domestic car brands can achieve L2-level automobile mass production, and the country is in the transition stage from L2-level automatic driving to L3-level intelligent driving.
The development of automotive intelligent driving assistance system must be the future trend, high acceptance and inherent inclusive culture, all make intelligent driving in the Chinese market will have a good landing development, and intelligent parking because of low speed, closed or semi-enclosed space, the scene is relatively fixed and other characteristics, has long become L3 and even L4 level assisted driving landing application technology, its existence is not only the auxiliary tool for reversing, for the early realization of a higher level of intelligent assisted driving system has far-reaching significance.
At present, whether it is the consumer support rate or the policy support attitude, it shows that intelligent driving is an indispensable part of future development, and intelligent parking as an important component, the mainland is actively carrying out the construction of intelligent networked vehicle demonstration areas, the construction of test roads, and the creation of intelligent networked vehicle industry clusters. Automotive companies and Internet companies are also constantly reaching in-depth cooperation to achieve a higher level of intelligent networking capabilities.
At the same time, higher-level intelligent driving also puts forward higher requirements for intelligent parking, cameras and radar recognition are higher, which will naturally increase the amount of computing data, which requires the vehicle to be more advanced in architecture, and multiple units are deeply related to each other. In addition, functions such as optimizing parking speed and time, data sharing, self-upgrading, and recording the owner's location habits also need to be further improved.
At present, the development of intelligent and connected vehicles in the mainland is accelerating. According to experts, by 2030, the basic landing of intelligent driving commercialization can be realized. At that time, intelligent parking will definitely be further iteratively upgraded in terms of functionality, and authoritative third-party institutions such as i-VISTA Automotive Intelligence Index can objectively and accurately reflect the real level of automotive intelligence, and play a good role in supervising and guiding the overall development of the intelligent automotive industry.
