Netcom information A few days ago, AI DAY 2024 was held, and at the same time, Extreme Yue Automobile officially pushed OTA version 1.4.0.This upgrade involves many fields such as intelligent driving, intelligent cockpit, intelligent interconnection, and three power plants, with a total of 200+ functions upgraded. In addition,In this AI DAY, Baidu’s three latest AI native technologies in the fields of autonomous driving, LD map and human-computer interaction were unveiled and will be applied to the ultra-car robot.
Version V1.4.0 is also the third OTA launched continuously within 90 days and the fifth OTA after listing. This upgrade involves many fields such as intelligent driving, intelligent cockpit, intelligent interconnection, and three power plants. A total of 200+ functions have been upgraded to solve the feedback problem of 5300+ users. For example, upgrading OCC to occupy the network visualization effect, two-way integration of SIMO and ERNIE Bot big model, and official "boarding" of human, vehicle and home ecology based on big model. Version V1.4.0 will bring users a better, more useful and more fun intelligent travel experience, and once again fulfill the promise of letting users "drive a new car every month".
In terms of high-level intelligent driving, based on Baidu Apollo’s pure visual high-level intelligent driving ability and security system empowerment, OCC occupied network upgrade has been completed, and a complete technical system of "B.O.T" has been formed. On this AI DAY, Baidu Apollo autopilot visual model VTA(Vision Takes All) was officially released, which greatly upgraded the capabilities including dynamic and static detection, time sequence tracking, real-time mapping, scene understanding, etc., and once again raised the upper limit of the ultra-pure visual high-order intelligent driving ability.
In the aspect of intelligent driving map, "with map" and "without map" have become hot topics in intelligent driving. Baidu map LD map (LD is lane-level navigation) is a native map of autonomous driving, which is generated by a large model of autonomous driving visual perception. It completely reconstructs the traditional map production mode, realizes a new paradigm of end-to-end map generation, and breaks through the bottleneck of lane-level map scale. LD is born for autonomous driving, and it keeps the most necessary elements and accuracy for minimizing the elements and accuracy of traditional high-precision maps. At the same time, the experience layer, security layer, real-time layer and other elements that traditional high-precision maps do not have are added to make autonomous driving safer.
It is worth mentioning that in order to let users better perceive the principle of OCC technology and use it with more peace of mind, the version V1.4.0 adds OCC 3D map eggs, so that users can clearly see the world in the eyes of automobile robots through the car screen. Like building blocks, squares of different colors identify obstacles/green belts/other vehicles outside the car, and cartoon 3D characters identify passers-by, which adds a lot of fun to the obscure AI technology. This function also supports opening and closing by voice, which is very convenient to control.
In addition, the city PPA has opened a new city-Guangzhou, which is the fifth city after Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou and Shenzhen. For the more special urban road sections in Beijing, PPA has been further improved, and the coverage has been expanded, which can comprehensively cover the main roads in the urban areas within the Fifth Ring Road.
At present, nearly 90% of users are using the extreme PPA smart driving, and the accumulated mileage has exceeded 1 km, which is equivalent to 45 laps around the earth. Next, the coverage mileage of PPA Smart Drive will soon exceed kilometers. In 2024, based on the AI ? ? big model capabilities of Baidu Apollo and Baidu map, PPA’s goal of "all countries can open and have a good experience" is just around the corner. As long as Baidu map can navigate, PPA can be used to drive.
Not only that,Extreme Yue 01 is the world’s first smart car that supports voice control/parking outside the vehicle. parking service leads the industry in AVP and automatic parking auxiliary APA, with the penetration rate of APA reaching 98%, making it the strongest parking on the surface. In the V1.4.0 version, the parking experience has been greatly upgraded, including the function of searching for space parking spaces on open roads, actively avoiding passing vehicles during parking, and automatically locking after parking, etc., and the degree of care and safety awareness are comparable to those of five-star parking staff.
In addition, the V1.4.0 version also upgraded a series of driving experience optimization, such as adding automatic turn signal function, adding PPA high-speed overhead lane-changing style setting, adding blind zone warning with automatic image assistance, etc., and optimized ADAS function experience such as forward collision warning FCW and automatic emergency braking AEB. In the future, the urban PPA driving style choice will be updated.
In the aspect of voice interaction, in order to make the automobile robot smarter and faster in the process of interaction with users. Based on the underlying ability of Baidu voice interaction, Jiyue 01 has built a voice assistant SIMO into a voice ceiling by virtue of the "global all-end side" of car voice, with a recognition speed of 500ms and smooth interaction in weak/no-network environment. In the future, the multimodal interaction scheme of video and voice fusion will soon get on the bus, which will comprehensively improve the interactive ability of multimodal fusion and user privacy protection, and further improve the accuracy of speech recognition through the multi-end model.
Thanks to the underlying capabilities of Baidu AI model, SIMO has achieved two-way integration with Baidu ERNIE Bot, bringing more natural, smooth and logical human-computer interaction experience. In the V1.4.0 version, SIMO is transformed into an all-round housekeeper, with the addition of active recommendation and free question-and-answer of car knowledge based on the big model, and the support of music recommendation, video information question-and-answer, scenic spot recommendation and inquiry, function answer and other functions. Ask SIMO if you have any questions. The level of natural communication is by going up one flight of stairs, which is obviously different from the rigid and mechanical voice assistants in the market.
In addition, the sharing function of the content generated by the large model is added. SIMO supports sending the generated text, pictures and other content to Chaoyue APP with one click, which is convenient for users to view and share. The SIMO experience outside the car has been further optimized, and the continuous dialogue of voice outside the car has been added to improve the recognition accuracy.SIMO’s powerful ability has become the industry benchmark. At present, SIMO’s daily average voice interaction penetration rate is 98%, and the daily average number of voice interactions is as high as 63 times, which is 10 times that of industry friends. Among them, every car calls ERNIE Bot service 7.1 times a day, accounting for about 11% of the daily average voice interaction times.
A more humanized function upgrade is that the V1.4.0 version has also added an "all-weather enjoyment mode", which is more widely used and more powerful than the general camping mode. Starting the all-weather exclusive mode can keep the vehicle powered on all the time, and the functions such as air conditioning and entertainment services can be used normally, which is especially suitable for camping, sleeping in the car, temporarily leaving pets in the car, etc., so as to bring users a more comfortable travel life experience.
Multimedia entertainment ecological service has always been a function frequently used by users. Version V1.4.0 adds a wireless screen projection application, which supports the screen projection to the car side; Add in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspots for in-vehicle devices to share traffic. At the same time, the game "All-Star Streetball Party" and "Little Triangle Hero" were launched.
In addition, it also includes functions such as adding an application store, adding a Baidu network disk, and adding an App remote car control, such as charging experience, steering wheel feel, sentry mode, and audio experience, which have also been optimized and upgraded. Whether it’s coming home from work, waiting for people or going camping, the car owners can spend a full, interesting and comfortable time in the car.
Finally, the official of Extreme Yue Automobile also announced that the version of Extreme Yue V2.0 will be released soon, when the brand-new voice model and PPA intelligent driving that can be opened all over the country will be upgraded.
