Original title: Drive.ai Unmanned vehicle service will be launched in the United States in July
Have you seen sihai.com's driverless car service? In fact, before 2018, there was news that the United States will start driverless car service within this year, and solve the problem of convenient travel for citizens, and no longer worry about parking spaces. Now? Drive.ai The unmanned vehicle service has been started. It will be officially launched in July this year. Are you looking forward to it?
Charging standards for unmanned vehicles in the United States
The travel of unmanned vehicles means that it will be more convenient for citizens to travel in the future, and it only needs to install an application on the mobile phone. Now? Drive.ai Starting the unmanned car service, which is the world's first driverless car Hailing service, I have to sigh that the current technology is too developed.
Drive.ai The company will work with the Frisco Transportation Management Association, the local traffic management department, to provide driverless pick-up services to more than 10000 people in the local retail, entertainment and business district, the company said. The initial project will run for six months with fixed boarding and alighting locations, located around Hall Park and the star avenue, and the route will be extended to Frisco station in the future. The project will be the first driverless car service in Texas to be open to the public.
Install the app to call the unmanned vehicle
Drive.ai The driverless service project aims to solve the problem of "last mile" in traffic, that is, to provide travel service between the distances of "walking too far, driving too close (or finding parking space due to congestion)". according to Drive.ai There are six pick-up locations for people to choose from. according to Drive.ai After the project is launched, people can call the unmanned car by installing mobile applications on their mobile phones, and the use method is similar to Uber and other shared travel services.
In the initial stage of the project, there will be a safe driver in the driver's seat to monitor the operation of the vehicle throughout the whole process Drive.ai He said that he plans to let safety officers sit in the passenger seat soon to experience the process of driverless driving with passengers, and finally provide the experience of driverless driving with only passengers on the car.

For example, waiting for pedestrians to cross the road in front of the sidewalk, the display will display the words "waiting for you to cross the road".
Drive.ai Wang Zhen, the founder, told Tencent's frontline that Frisco in Dezhou was chosen as the first choice for the landing of the driverless service because the relevant laws and regulations of autonomous driving in Dezhou are sound, and the state, regional and municipal governments, as well as private partners, all support the landing of driverless driving. "We hope that Frisco's landing project in Texas can become a model," Wang said, "so that we can copy the unmanned vehicle service to more communities and cities, and hope that the experience and data brought by the landing project can further help us improve the algorithm, form a virtuous circle, and realize the positive feedback of technology.
