on september 29, the global smart automotive industry conference was held in hefei, anhui. li tao, manager of baidu’s smart cabin business department, revealed that the sixth generation of luobo kuaopao’s unmanned vehicle will soon be equipped with apollo super cockpit intelligence to realize functions such as automated greeting, automated vehicle control, and care for different groups of people driven by large models.

in the b-end travel market, low cost is the most important factor influencing popular models. why did baidu choose to be here at this time?carrot run quicklywill autonomous vehicles be upgraded with super cockpits? li tao explained to tencent news "first line" that if new technologies are to achieve global execution and control, they need a very open electronic architecture. whether inextremethe technology still used in luobo kuaipao requires the underlying layer to be open and scheduled, otherwise decisions may be made but unable to be executed. baidu hopes to give users a highly automated experience on unmanned vehicles.

as the automotive industry changes into the second half of intelligence, smart cockpits and smart driving have gradually become "standard features" of vehicles. but in li tao's view, many smart cockpits simply install tablets in vehicles and migrate mobile apps directly to the car. 80% or more of the applications will not be used.

"according to industry statistics, the maximum number of apps installed on a single vehicle has reached 189. you can imagine what kind of experience you want from browsing 189 apps?" li tao said, this will not only take up valuable vehicle time. resources, and more importantly, will affect the user's mental and cognitive load during the driving experience.

li tao believes that at first the entire cockpit was centered around in-cabin perception and operation, but now the trend of "cabin-driving-cloud-image" has become very obvious. cameras and millimeter-wave radar sensors can also be empowered in the cabin to enhance the experience, thus become smarter. according to him, the number of products equipped with baidu’s smart cockpit should exceed 10 million units this year.
