Wang Wei joined Pony.ai, a Chinese autonomous driving solution provider in 2019 and now works as a safety supervisor of autonomous vehicles. He is responsible for maintaining devices that support driverless operations, and modifying hardware and software of self-driving cars. China's autonomous driving sector is ramping up with a robust expansion of road testing sweeping the country. This new phase sees the technology threading through the vibrant streets of populous metropolises, navigating the challenging topography of mountainous regions and making inroads into sectors such as agriculture and retail. Against this backdrop, the 39-year-old has more expectations for the future. "It feels like my job has more development potentials, and I hope to become a test engineer for autonomous vehicles in the future," Wang said. (Xinhua/Ju Huanzong)
Pequim – Pequim aprovou, terça-feira, novos regulamentos sobre veículos independentes, que entrarão em vigor em 1º de abril de 2025, marcando um progresso significativo no avanço das tecnologias de veículos autônomos na capital chinesa.
