Enhance and enable Level 4 autonomous parking with Real-time HD Semantic Map solutions
The automotive industry is undergoing rapid transformation with the introduction of new vehicle architectures and software-defined vehicles, alongside advanced processing platforms. This shift creates a wealth of innovative data-driven opportunities. In this presentation, Dr Xiao will explore real-time HD semantic map solutions designed to enhance parking experiences and enable Level 4 autonomous parking systems. The solutions use low-cost sensors – surround-view cameras – to create sharable parking lot maps. These maps, stored in the cloud, provide real-time updates on parking spot availability and type (EV, handicapped, etc). Dr Xiao will explain how these advancements lead to smarter, more efficient parking solutions.
