On June 8, we learned that Xiaomi Auto Technology has recently published a number of new patents, and so far 20 patents have been published. Most of them are related to automatic driving of vehicles , including: patents on transparent chassis, high-precision positioning, neural network, semantic segmentation, traffic light duration calculation, lane line recognition, model training, automatic lane change, automatic overtaking, behavior prediction, etc.
On June 3, Xiaomi Auto Technology Co., Ltd. announced a patent, “ Automatic overtaking method, device, vehicle, storage medium and chip”, which is in the field of autonomous driving.
The abstract shows that the method includes: in response to the distance between the vehicle and the preceding vehicle being less than a preset distance threshold, determining the vehicle type and the first vehicle speed of the preceding vehicle, and determining the vehicle type and the first vehicle speed of the preceding vehicle according to the Vehicle speed, determine the overtaking decision result of the vehicle , when the overtaking decision result is less than the preset decision threshold, determine the vehicle’s overtaking lane change trajectory based on the vehicle type, first speed, vehicle distance, and second vehicle speed , based on the overtaking lane change trajectory , control the vehicle to overtake. Therefore, the vehicle type is considered as a necessary factor in the algorithm, so that the vehicle can accurately perform the overtaking and lane changing process based on the current actual situation, and bring a better autonomous driving experience to the passengers.
