If you are familiar with BMW's new generation 7 series, you will notice that the AirTouch gesture recognition technology of this million-seat luxury car can control the car interface with a wave of hand. The supplier of this technology is actually from the UK's auto parts giant Delphi AutomoTIve.
Today, Delphi is no longer satisfied with being a single-technology supplier, but is about to start with the layout of the car's overall autonomous driving technology.
There is an old saying in the automotive industry that "the main engine factory is the branch, and the parts and components enterprises are the foundation." Looking at the distribution of parts and components in a country, one can see the degree of development of a country's automobile industry. The auto parts market, which occupies the automobile technology innovation fortress, has also been intensified.
The experience of the British company Delphi AutomoTIve is actually a good example. Delphi ranked 12th in the 2016 Global Auto Parts Suppliers Top 100 list released by AutomoTIve News. Name, and 7-8 years ago, this company is often in the top 5. Some commentators said that this is the normal posture after puffiness, but from the current layout of Delphi in the field of autonomous driving and car-assisted driving systems, this company has undoubtedly seized a chance to catch up quickly.
Recently, the company has cooperated with the famous Israeli assisted driving technology provider Mobileye. The two companies will jointly develop SAE (American Automotive Engineering Association) L4-L5 level autopilot complete solution and at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. A 10km public demonstration (CES 2017) is presented to demonstrate that the road section covers urban roads and highways.
What is L4-L5? It is necessary to explain here: This is the classification of the degree of realization of the driving technology of the American Automobile Engineering Association. The automatic driving technology of the L5 or L4 stage does not require much manual intervention, and can pass the sensor of the car itself. The controller and computing power enable full autopilot.
Delphi's automated driving solution, developed in collaboration with Mobileye, is called the Central Sensing Positioning and Planning (CSLP) autopilot system, which will go into production in 2019. According to Wang Zhan, president of Delphi Electronics & Security's Asia Pacific region, the price of this autonomous driving solution will be around $5,000 when it is mass-produced in 2019.

In the solution of CSLP autopilot technology, Mobileye will provide EyeQ4/5 chip with sensing signal processing, fusion and world view generation, and road experience management system (Road Experience Management) for real-time mapping and vehicle positioning. , REMTM).
And Delphi needs to integrate more.
As a veteran auto parts supplier, Delphi has been exploring the field of automotive sensors for a long time, its millimeter wave radar products have been able to detect a distance of 200 meters, and after establishing a partnership with Mobileye, Delphi will be in the RACam radar products, Its own radar is integrated with Mobileye's camera chip, which solves the problem of separate installation, improves stability and computing power, and has been applied in the Volvo XC90.
Among the autopilot technologies, sensors are undoubtedly a very important part. The precise measurement and environmental perception provided by them are the prerequisite for the car to make correct countermeasures. By integrating both radar and camera technologies, Delphi and Mobileye can be said to be two strong players in the industry.
Beyond the sensor is the computing power of the vehicle. The number of F35 jets is 24 million, Facebook is 61 million, Microsoft Windows is 44 million, Android is 12 million, and a high-end car has more than 100 million calculations.

For autonomous driving, supercomputing power is more important. By 2020, the car will be able to exchange about 100,000 pieces of data in a flash. A large number of ECUs will overwhelm the vehicle's electronic system, and the multi-domain controller will serve as an ECU integration and grooming platform for future autopilot data processing. Ability to expand a lot of space.
“The challenge for customers is to ensure that all computing power and software on the car are at an automated level, and that there is no need to update the version every two weeks,†said Wang Zhan.
Delphi is developing multi-domain controllers for Audi and developing integrated cockpit controllers for Volvo, which are making decisions 34,000 times faster than humans. Therefore, in this cooperation, in addition to providing the technical advantages of sensors such as radar, Delphi will also provide a multi-domain controller (MDC) that integrates a complete camera, radar and lidar system.
