Baidu鈥檚 1st robocar hits the streets
Print Edition
Search-engine giant Baidu has unveiled its first robocar with no steering wheel, plus a car-hailing platform as the company moves to scale up its autonomous driving commercial operations.
Baidu unveiled last month its Apollo Park complex, its third in China, at Shanghai鈥檚 International Automobile City. It will be home to over 200 Apollo autonomous cars, the biggest self-driving fleet in East China.
The company鈥檚 鈥淟uobo Kuaipao鈥 ride-hailing application is expected to be operating across 30 cities in the next three years, with trials currently underway in Beijing, Guangzhou, Changsha in Hunan Province and Cangzhou in Hebei Province.
At the annual Baidu World Conference, co-founder and CEO Robin Li said smart vehicles made by Jidu Auto, its joint venture with Geely in which Baidu holds 55 percent, will be unveiled in two or three years.
It also introduced four new pieces of smart hardware, including a tablet and TV set equipped with an AI voice assistant, and its second generation AI chip Kunlun II which has entered mass production.
Baidu last week reported 27 percent growth in second-quarter revenues, boosted by its AI cloud unit which surged 71 percent.
It has deployed its Apollo mini bus at selected public parks, industrial complexes and residential communities.
