UK proposes new regulations, Tesla may face ban on sales of self-driving cars
UK proposes new regulations, Tesla may face ban on sales of self-driving cars
According to news, the UK will introduce the Self-Driving Vehicles Act, and Tesla may be banned from selling self-driving cars in the UK. The move will be a major setback for Elon Musk and Tesla
The UK Department for Transport plans to publish regulations next year that prohibit unapproved car manufacturers from marketing their vehicles as "self-driving" Or "self-driving"
Tesla faces multiple lawsuits and investigations, the latest blow to the company. These legal disputes and investigations stem from safety concerns over Tesla's Advanced Assisted Driving technology. For years, Tesla has charged Tesla owners around the world hefty fees for what it calls "Full Self-Driving" upgrades. cost, but the technology has only been tested in North America.
Despite being called "fully autonomous", the current feature still requires constant monitoring by the driver and is described as an "assistant" system that is unlikely to meet the upcoming high UK standards
Last week, the UK government said it would regulate terms such as "self-driving", "autonomous driving", "autonomous driving", "autonomous driving" and "autonomous vehicles" to prevent "misleading" associated with the technology marketing".
The British government announced that restricting car manufacturers' descriptions of autonomous driving systems is the first measure for the new system to take effect, and is expected to be implemented after the Autonomous Vehicles Act becomes law in 2024 or 2025
Tesla’s advanced driver assistance system Autopilot has functions such as adaptive cruise, car following and automatic lane changing, but it does not meet the “marketing terms” stipulated in the bill.
Legal experts said that the upcoming bill means that the British government will strictly regulate self-driving cars, and it will be more difficult for Tesla to promote this technology in the UK.
Tesla is currently valued at $742 billion, making it the world’s most valuable automaker, but this is partly based on Musk’s long-standing promise that Tesla electric cars can drive without human intervention. Promise of.
Musk said earlier this year: "This is the key to whether Tesla is worth it or not."
Tesla has been promoting the concept of "full self-driving" since 2016. Capability" electric car and charges UK owners £6,800 (approximately $8,572). Tesla said it may not activate the feature until it gets approval from local regulators
Brian Wang, a lawyer specializing in transportation at law firm Burges Salmon, said: "If the vehicle does not To be considered a self-driving car, using terms like 'full self-driving' is problematic, so Tesla and other automakers need to pay attention."
He added: "This is something everyone, including Industry insiders say one of the biggest concerns about self-driving cars: public confusion about features that are not considered self-driving."
Tesla has been recruiting drivers in the UK and Europe to test more complex autonomous driving system, which is seen as a sign that the company is preparing to roll out the technology globally.
Since 2020, Tesla’s U.S. and Canadian owners have been able to use a beta version of the “Full Self-Driving” system. However, Musk has encountered difficulties in introducing the technology to other markets. Musk said last year: "In the United States, a lot of things are legal by default. In Europe, these things are illegal by default. So we have to get approval first. But in the United States, you can more or less rely on your own knowledge to do that."
Musk has repeatedly made ambitious statements about self-driving car technology Promise of. It dates back to 2017, when he said Tesla electric vehicles would be able to drive autonomously on roads across the U.S.
Musk told investors last month: "Obviously, in the past I have been Too optimistic."
Tesla is facing a series of investigations by U.S. regulators into Autopilot and "Full Self-Driving" systems. Just last month, Tesla won the first trial in the U.S. over a fatal road crash involving Tesla's Autopilot system.
Tesla did not respond to a request for comment
According to a spokesman for the Department for Transport: "Safety is at the heart of the Autonomous Driving Bill, so we have introduced new regulations to ban misleading marketing practices. This decision is based on the advice of the Law Commission." "This will Helps protect consumers and the public by ensuring that only vehicles that meet strict standards can be marketed in this way."

How to solve the long tail problem in autonomous driving scenarios?
Jun 02, 2024 pm 02:44 PM
Yesterday during the interview, I was asked whether I had done any long-tail related questions, so I thought I would give a brief summary. The long-tail problem of autonomous driving refers to edge cases in autonomous vehicles, that is, possible scenarios with a low probability of occurrence. The perceived long-tail problem is one of the main reasons currently limiting the operational design domain of single-vehicle intelligent autonomous vehicles. The underlying architecture and most technical issues of autonomous driving have been solved, and the remaining 5% of long-tail problems have gradually become the key to restricting the development of autonomous driving. These problems include a variety of fragmented scenarios, extreme situations, and unpredictable human behavior. The "long tail" of edge scenarios in autonomous driving refers to edge cases in autonomous vehicles (AVs). Edge cases are possible scenarios with a low probability of occurrence. these rare events
nuScenes' latest SOTA | SparseAD: Sparse query helps efficient end-to-end autonomous driving!
Apr 17, 2024 pm 06:22 PM
Written in front & starting point The end-to-end paradigm uses a unified framework to achieve multi-tasking in autonomous driving systems. Despite the simplicity and clarity of this paradigm, the performance of end-to-end autonomous driving methods on subtasks still lags far behind single-task methods. At the same time, the dense bird's-eye view (BEV) features widely used in previous end-to-end methods make it difficult to scale to more modalities or tasks. A sparse search-centric end-to-end autonomous driving paradigm (SparseAD) is proposed here, in which sparse search fully represents the entire driving scenario, including space, time, and tasks, without any dense BEV representation. Specifically, a unified sparse architecture is designed for task awareness including detection, tracking, and online mapping. In addition, heavy
Let's talk about end-to-end and next-generation autonomous driving systems, as well as some misunderstandings about end-to-end autonomous driving?
Apr 15, 2024 pm 04:13 PM
In the past month, due to some well-known reasons, I have had very intensive exchanges with various teachers and classmates in the industry. An inevitable topic in the exchange is naturally end-to-end and the popular Tesla FSDV12. I would like to take this opportunity to sort out some of my thoughts and opinions at this moment for your reference and discussion. How to define an end-to-end autonomous driving system, and what problems should be expected to be solved end-to-end? According to the most traditional definition, an end-to-end system refers to a system that inputs raw information from sensors and directly outputs variables of concern to the task. For example, in image recognition, CNN can be called end-to-end compared to the traditional feature extractor + classifier method. In autonomous driving tasks, input data from various sensors (camera/LiDAR
FisheyeDetNet: the first target detection algorithm based on fisheye camera
Apr 26, 2024 am 11:37 AM
Target detection is a relatively mature problem in autonomous driving systems, among which pedestrian detection is one of the earliest algorithms to be deployed. Very comprehensive research has been carried out in most papers. However, distance perception using fisheye cameras for surround view is relatively less studied. Due to large radial distortion, standard bounding box representation is difficult to implement in fisheye cameras. To alleviate the above description, we explore extended bounding box, ellipse, and general polygon designs into polar/angular representations and define an instance segmentation mIOU metric to analyze these representations. The proposed model fisheyeDetNet with polygonal shape outperforms other models and simultaneously achieves 49.5% mAP on the Valeo fisheye camera dataset for autonomous driving
Tesla finally takes action! Will self-driving taxis be unveiled soon? !
Apr 08, 2024 pm 05:49 PM
According to news on April 8, Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently revealed that Tesla is committed to developing self-driving car technology. The highly anticipated unmanned self-driving taxi Robotaxi will be launched on August 8. Official debut. The data editor learned that Musk's statement on Previously, Reuters reported that Tesla’s plan to drive cars would focus on the production of Robotaxi. However, Musk refuted this, accusing Reuters of having canceled plans to develop low-cost cars and once again publishing false reports, while making it clear that low-cost cars Model 2 and Robotax
Tesla Dojo supercomputing debut, Musk: The computing power of AI training by the end of the year will be approximately equal to 8,000 NVIDIA H100 GPUs
Jul 24, 2024 am 10:38 AM
According to news from this website on July 24, Tesla CEO Elon Musk (Elon Musk) stated in today’s earnings conference call that the company is about to complete the largest artificial intelligence training cluster to date, which will be equipped with 2 Thousands of NVIDIA H100 GPUs. Musk also told investors on the company's earnings call that Tesla would work on developing its Dojo supercomputer because GPUs from Nvidia are expensive. This site translated part of Musk's speech as follows: The road to competing with NVIDIA through Dojo is difficult, but I think we have no choice. We are now over-reliant on NVIDIA. From NVIDIA's perspective, they will inevitably increase the price of GPUs to a level that the market can bear, but
Mass production killer! P-Mapnet: Using the low-precision map SDMap prior, the mapping performance is violently improved by nearly 20 points!
Mar 28, 2024 pm 02:36 PM
As written above, one of the algorithms used by current autonomous driving systems to get rid of dependence on high-precision maps is to take advantage of the fact that the perception performance in long-distance ranges is still poor. To this end, we propose P-MapNet, where the “P” focuses on fusing map priors to improve model performance. Specifically, we exploit the prior information in SDMap and HDMap: on the one hand, we extract weakly aligned SDMap data from OpenStreetMap and encode it into independent terms to support the input. There is a problem of weak alignment between the strictly modified input and the actual HD+Map. Our structure based on the Cross-attention mechanism can adaptively focus on the SDMap skeleton and bring significant performance improvements;
LLM is all done! OmniDrive: Integrating 3D perception and reasoning planning (NVIDIA's latest)
May 09, 2024 pm 04:55 PM
Written above & the author’s personal understanding: This paper is dedicated to solving the key challenges of current multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) in autonomous driving applications, that is, the problem of extending MLLMs from 2D understanding to 3D space. This expansion is particularly important as autonomous vehicles (AVs) need to make accurate decisions about 3D environments. 3D spatial understanding is critical for AVs because it directly impacts the vehicle’s ability to make informed decisions, predict future states, and interact safely with the environment. Current multi-modal large language models (such as LLaVA-1.5) can often only handle lower resolution image inputs (e.g.) due to resolution limitations of the visual encoder, limitations of LLM sequence length. However, autonomous driving applications require
