Shijiazhuang – Um projeto de demonstração de teste de condução autônoma foi lançado em uma rodovia que liga Beijing à Nova Área de Xiong’an, na Província de Hebei, na quarta-feira.
A rodovia Beijing-Xiong’an é uma importante artéria que conecta Beijing e a Nova Área de Xiong’an. No momento, um total de 108 km de pistas de condução autônoma foram designadas na linha principal da rodovia, com percepção inteligente e equipamentos de comunicação instalados para supervisionar e monitorar sua operação.
“O lançamento do teste de condução autônoma é uma tentativa ativa de explorar o desenvolvimento de rodovias inteligentes na região Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei”, disse Zhang Hongjun, engenheiro-chefe do Hebei Expressway Group.
“Esperamos que esse projeto possa não apenas apoiar o teste de campo da condução autônoma em rodovias, mas também explorar ainda mais os novos modos de operação e gerenciamento de vias expressas apoiados pela tecnologia inteligente”, acrescentou Zhang.
