Li Auto’s research and development in the field of autonomous driving is continuing.
Li Auto’s affiliate, Beijing Chehejia (“Car and Home”) Information Technology Co. Ltd. filed a patent for a method and apparatus for driverless cars, which is primarily applicable to driverless cab scenarios.
The patent application was filed on June 19, 2019, with a publication date of December 22, 2020, and its current status is “under review”, according to data from Qichacha.
The abstract shows that the patent relates to an unmanned driving method and device in the field of automotive technology. It solves the problem that prior technology cannot automate the determination of the path supported by unmanned driving.
Under this technology, the vehicle will be able to obtain information on the attributes of all roads between the starting point and the endpoint and the attributes of intersections and determine the path based on this information.
It is worth mentioning that Li Auto also previously disclosed the patent information of “a method and device for generating self-driving simulation scenarios”, which is related to the field of data processing technology, with the main purpose of making self-driving simulation scenarios closer to real driving situations.
