Next year, the company will establish its European operation center in Germany and simultaneously introduce the overseas version of the DeepRoute-Driver 3.0 solution, along with two intelligent driving products, D-PRO and D-AIR, and an intelligent driving light truck.

DeepRoute.ai is currently in talks with multiple international automakers to facilitate its technology's integration into their vehicles. To adapt fully to the German market, DeepRoute.ai has localized its systems to align with German road conditions and driving habits.

Given the high-speed nature of many German highways, DeepRoute.ai has reinforced its intelligent driving system with features such as forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and emergency steering assistance, aiming to minimize potential driving hazards. Moreover, to address the importance German users place on vehicle handling, DeepRoute.ai has enhanced the integration between its intelligent driving system and vehicle chassis, resulting in smoother and more responsive lane changes, acceleration, and deceleration.

DeepRoute.ai has also optimized perception and decision-making algorithms to comply with German traffic rules, including yielding right of way in turns, yielding to traffic on the main road, and giving way to vehicles already in the roundabout, aligning with Germany's emphasis on traffic rights and regulations.

Zhou Guang believes that the Driver 3.0 solution will adapt to the German market more quickly than competitors. This is due to Driver 3.0's precise perception capabilities, which do not require high-precision maps and can achieve high-level intelligent driving on urban and highway segments using navigation maps alone. Compared to systems reliant on high-precision maps, Driver 3.0 offers superior adaptability and cost-effectiveness.

Furthermore, Driver 3.0 is a data-driven system with robust closed-loop data capabilities. In complex and rare scenarios, the system autonomously selects, annotates, trains, and integrates data, facilitating autonomous learning and addressing unique scenarios. In terms of functional safety, the Driver 3.0 solution incorporates multiple layers of redundant safety mechanisms, complies with ASIL-D functional safety standards, and is expected to receive ISO international functional safety certification by 2024.
