According to statistics, during the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, more than 500 new energy vehicles, Mercedes-Benz, made a different interpretation of the Science and Technology Olympics and the Green Olympics between the Bird's Nest, the Water Cube and the Olympic Village. Then, relying on policy assistance, China gradually It has become the world's largest new energy vehicle market, and the related industries are booming. It can be said that providing services for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games has played a good role in demonstrating the popularity of new energy vehicles.
Ten years have passed. It is less than five years before the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. Can autopilot take the opportunity to replicate the success of new energy vehicles? Now, the answer must be affirmative.
On October 16th, the Shougang Park Autopilot Service Demonstration Zone was officially launched. At the low-key and simple launching ceremony, Shougang Group, as the official partner of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics and Paralympic Games, signed a contract with a number of important partners. Jianshou Steel Park Autopilot Service Demonstration Zone: Cooperate with Tsinghua University's Automotive Engineering Department to develop autopilot scenario planning and technology winter Olympics demonstration; cooperate with Jingdong, Meituan Review, Zhixing, Neolithic in the field of unmanned logistics services Cooperate with China Unicom and other units to build a 5G-based autopilot and car networking infrastructure – a series of cooperation involving multiple links in government, industry, and research.

It is said that autonomous driving is the inevitable choice for the future city. This trend prejudice makes Beijing, Shougang Group, Shougang Park and this latest, cutting-edge, and most popular cross-industry technology firmly condensed together.
It is understood that on December 18 last year, Beijing announced the auto-driving public road test regulations and auto-driving test vehicle rating regulations. It is the first city in China to introduce auto-driving road test regulations. At the same time, Beijing officially opened its first in China. The vehicle-road cooperative driving demonstration zone applies 5G front-end communication technology to the development of the automobile industry. At present, there are 44 123-kilometer test roads in Beijing, covering the rich traffic scenes such as cities and villages. It is the longest open test road in the country. The city has issued 35 self-driving vehicle test licenses for 8 companies, and the number is also the highest among cities in the country.
For Shougang Group, Shougang Old Industrial Zone has been identified by the state as the first batch of urban old industrial zone relocation and transformation pilots. The detailed planning of the Shougang Park North District was officially approved in 2017, and Shougang Park will be built as a 'new era Shougang City. Revitalizing the new landmarks.. Around the city's science and technology, Shougang Park took the lead in launching the exploration in the field of automatic driving, and has a good foundation for building an automatic driving service demonstration zone: The park covers an area of 8.63 square kilometers, of which the planned road in the northern district is 21 kilometers, and has been built about 9 Kilometers, including urban trunk roads, secondary trunk roads and urban slip roads. The future will include open and closed management sections with rich scenes, which are ideal for testing and demonstration operations of autonomous vehicles.

According to reports, the park will cooperate with partners in the demonstration area to carry out demonstration applications of auto-driving related products, services and business models to help accelerate the maturity and application of autonomous driving technology, and explore a new model of smart transportation for the future. Relevant government departments provide empirical support for decision-making, and strive to auto-drive to actually serve the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics.
'The results of the project will take the winter Olympics as an opportunity to take the lead in comprehensively promoting the industrialization of autonomous driving technology in the country, forming a replicable and transferable auto-driving park template after the Olympics, and striving for promotion. 'Dean of Automotive Engineering Department of Tsinghua University Professor Yang Diange introduced that the park will focus on the automatic driving routes of seven types of vehicles, including unmanned passenger cars, unmanned sweeping vehicles and unmanned logistics vehicles. The route will be oriented to Shougang internal roads, squares and venues. In addition, the research objectives also involve autonomous driving. Dedicated lane planning, intelligent traffic lights, smart roads, smart parking spaces, wireless charging parking spaces, etc. At the same time, the park will also plan to build a professional park for autonomous driving, with more partners to carry out innovation and entrepreneurship and various high-tech Demonstration application.
Among them, the L4 unmanned driving in the park - the passenger car runs around the park loop to achieve full-time operation; the shared car realizes the last mile of unmanned driving, one-click calling and automatic parking; the unmanned logistics vehicle runs at night, Achieve unmanned logistics transportation of designated routes, separation of people and goods; unmanned sweeping vehicles run at night, and the roads that realize the designated routes are uncleaned. Facing internal roads, L4 unmanned driving around the square and venues - unmanned MINI buses realize venues Between the narrow and uninterrupted operation of the inner road; the MINI sweeping vehicle realizes the real-time cleaning and maintenance of the ground environment in the squares and venues with more people flow; the MINI logistics distribution vehicle is combined with e-commerce to realize the express delivery in the designated area of the park. Distribution.
According to the plan, before the Olympics (2020), there will be more than 10 unmanned vehicles in the park, covering the northern part of Shougang Park; in the Olympics (2022), there will be more than 100 unmanned vehicles, covering the same area. It is the North District of Shougang Park; after the Olympics (2025), there will be more than 1,000 unmanned vehicles, covering the entire park of Shougang with a service area of 150,000. The social capital will cooperate with the development plan of Shougang Park to help it create Beijing Innovation Park. According to reports, the construction of the Autopilot Service Demonstration Zone in Shougang Park is an important step in the world's upcoming entry into the 5G era, the improvement of smart application scenarios in the park, the development of the digital smart industry, and a new starting point for building urban-type industrial communities. .
At the launching ceremony, Zhang Dezhao, founder and CEO of Zhixing Technology, told the China Auto News: 'At present, Zhizhi is the only unsold cleaning and unmanned distribution service set up by Shougang in the office of the Winter Olympics Organizing Committee. Business, this cooperation is based on the common philosophy of both parties, and it is a landmark attempt. The smart 'Spirit White' and 'Spirit' will help the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee of Shougang Park to achieve sanitation cleaning. The unmanned logistics and distribution will promote the construction of the smart park. 'He also stressed that the intelligent traveler is committed to the construction of the life service system by autopilot: 'Autopilot technology not only serves the travel, but should serve the life.'
