To ensure safety and comply with current laws and regulations, safety drivers are still required in a bid to take control in case of an emergency.

In April, DeepRoute.ai became the first automaker to obtain the permit that allows self-driving cars to transport passengers on open roads in Shenzhen, a positive sign for the company to commercialize the self-driving technology.

The company said its Robotaxi is capable of accurately recognizing all kinds of transport participants as far as up to 100 meters and doing route planning and decision-making based on real-time road conditions. By virtue of the multi-sensor fusion, the highly efficient inference and computing, the prediction of dynamic obstacles’ behaviors, the automatic obstacle avoidance, the 5G-enabled remote monitoring, and other capabilities, safe and reliable Robotaxi service can be offered even in dark night and heavy rain.

Founded in early 2019, DeepRoute.ai is a Level 4 self-driving solution supplier to OEMs, tier 1 suppliers, and ride-hailing and logistics service provider. It has so far carried out autonomous car tests in urban areas of Shenzhen, Wuhan and Hangzhou, accumulating over 2 million kilometers of safe testing mileages.
