BYD and research institutions to jointly develop driverless cars

  Recently, BYD and Singapore Technologies Research Council (A * STAR) and Telecommunications Research Institute (I2R) signed a cooperation agreement to establish a joint laboratory to integrate their advantages in the field of electric vehicles and unmanned areas of joint research and development of unmanned electric vehicle technology to build the next generation of intelligent electric vehicles.

  Under the agreement, the two sides involved in joint R & D cooperation is not only a vehicle autopilot technology, but also the use of electronic wire system to achieve the vehicle brakes, steering and control of other automotive systems; would be based on the real-time vehicle condition, road conditions and other unmanned Driving an electric fleet monitoring and intelligent management, the development of unmanned vehicle management system.
