Beijing (Gasgoo)- Autonomous driving solution developer Zhijia Technology recently announced the successful completion of the industry's first unmanned warehouse-to-warehouse trucking operation. The test route began at a major e-commerce logistics park in Huangshi, Hubei Province, passing through urban areas and multi-lane highways, and concluded at a large freight airport storage facility.
During the operation, Zhijia Technology's self-driving heavy-duty truck demonstrated robust handling of complex scenarios, including highways, urban streets, and logistics park environments. The route involved navigating diverse traffic conditions such as pedestrians, bicycles, motorcycles, traffic cones, and construction barriers, while also managing intersections with traffic lights and urban traffic flow.
The truck utilized cutting-edge technologies like DualBEV multi-camera vision and multi-sensor fusion perception, progressive scenario-based risk assessment, and spatiotemporal trajectory optimization algorithms. These innovations enabled the truck to complete a seamless warehouse-to-warehouse delivery, showcasing the advanced capabilities of the company's L4 autonomous driving system.
Additionally, the truck overcame challenges such as detecting toll gate structures with multimodal sensor fusion, estimating angles and states in real-time, and mimicking human driving behavior through imitation learning for precise navigation in narrow environments. Emergency logic and redundancy ensured safe stops during unexpected scenarios like obstructed gates or non-standard objects, underscoring the system's reliability in varied logistics and highway conditions.
