Recently, Baidu Maps has launched a new lane-level dynamic safety warning function, which fully covers 10 high-risk scenarios including oncoming large vehicles, two-way bends, and speeding vehicles approaching, providing users with real-time dynamic safety reminders accurate to the lane level. Not only can it provide all-weather, real-time and perceptual protection and reminders, but it also achieves full coverage of all sections of the country, thus achieving full coverage in both time and space, providing safety protection for more than 30 million people every day.
Relying on the Wenxin Traffic Big Model technology upgrade, Baidu Maps has discovered the top ten accident-prone scenarios based on Beidou satellite positioning information, hundreds of millions of frames of road test ultra-high-definition data, real-time road traffic conditions data and massive user travel behaviors. It can also push lane-level safety warning information in high-risk driving scenarios based on the user's real-time location and future itinerary.
For a long time, large vehicles have become a driving safety hazard that has caused headaches for thousands of car owners due to factors such as heavy loads, many blind spots in vision, and long braking distances. According to statistics from the China Judicial Big Data Research Institute, the traffic accident rate of trucks is 32.04%. Although trucks account for 10% of the total number of motor vehicles, accidents that result in more than three deaths account for more than 30%. It is reported that the lane-level dynamic safety warning released by Baidu Maps this time has proposed a new solution. "Baidu Maps has detected a large truck ahead of you, please drive carefully." Whenever a large truck appears in front, the owner will receive such a reminder. Whether there is a large truck in the opposite direction or a large truck approaching from behind, Baidu Maps' lane-level dynamic safety warning product will issue a real-time warning to protect the owner's driving safety.
In addition to large vehicle reminders, Baidu Maps can also monitor the situation of vehicles in real time for high-risk scenarios with frequent accidents, such as meeting on a two-way curve, approaching speeding vehicles from behind, slow-moving small cars in front, and emergency braking in front, and provide eye-catching and immersive warning information on the navigation interface to ensure the safety of users. For example, when driving on a curve, if there is an oncoming vehicle in the opposite lane, the navigation interface can clearly display the type of vehicle and promptly remind the owner to avoid it. In addition, functions such as oncoming vehicle reminders at forks, over-the-horizon warnings for traffic accidents, and escort reminders for special vehicles are also being launched one after another.
In addition to the dynamic safety warning function for the ten major driving scenarios released this time, the industry's first pedestrian crossing warning and bus ghosting warning are also important manifestations of Baidu Maps' continued attention to user travel safety. Pedestrians crossing the road and ghosting have always been major risk factors that plague car owners' driving safety. Baidu Maps can accurately predict dangerous scenes such as intersections where pedestrians are likely to cross, community entrances, and bus ghosting, protecting the safety of drivers and pedestrians at all times.
At the same time, based on the mobile and vehicle integration capabilities of Baidu Map V20, the dynamic safety warning function will also be launched on the Baidu Map car version. Whether in mobile phone or car scenarios, the safety warning function is equally easy to use and reliable.
As a new map in the era of artificial intelligence, Baidu Maps has been committed to providing users with more intelligent, convenient and safe travel services. This dynamic safety warning function is another important upgrade of navigation services based on Beidou high-precision positioning and the latest large model technology. In the future, Baidu Maps will continue to rely on its own technical accumulation in autonomous driving and artificial intelligence, deeply explore the potential pain points in user travel scenarios, and continue to create targeted innovative solutions to provide users with more convenient, safer and smarter travel navigation services.
