Baidu, the search engine sometimes called the Google of China, announced more of its robotaxi plans, including what it claims will be the largest no-safety-driver robotaxi service area in the world in 2023.
Baidu has been operating robotaxis with no safety driver in Chongqing and Wuhan starting this year, and also operating services with safety drivers. It reports it now has given close to 1.4 million rides in these various vehicles, with nearly half a million in Q3 of 2022. Permits to remove all safety drivers are rare in China and teams there often report they are fully self-driver when they have an employee in the car, just not in the passenger seat.
Baidu’s move to 10 cities backs up their claim that they have worked hard at making it easy to expand the territory of their systems. They now claim they can bring up a new city in just 20 days. This is done through systems to automate map generation — they report that their automated systems generate 96% of their maps, reducing the workload for humans in finishing them. This is combined with real-time updates, as used by teams.
Similar systems help them process the large volumes of data they gather to filter down to what will be input to their training sets for their AI models. Unlike other teams like Waymo, Cruise, Zoox and more, Baidu is also working to export some of their robocar advancements into an ADAS-pilot system.
