On March 8, 2024, the first batch of pilot projects for intelligent transportation (autonomous driving and intelligent shipping direction) were launched by the Ministry of Transport& Flash& Ldquo; Pilot application of autonomous driving for highway freight transportation from Tianjin Port to Majuqiao Logistics Park; The Tonggang Dayuan Project (hereinafter referred to as the Tonggang Dayuan Project) has officially launched on-site verification of project results on the Beijing Tianjin Tangshan Expressway. As a research and joint testing and operation unit for queue technology, the TRUNK.TECH autonomous driving truck has passed the on-site inspection and evaluation by experts from the Ministry of Transport, the Transport Technology Department, and the China Merchants Bureau, and has received unanimous recognition and high praise, helping the project successfully pass the inspection work.
The successful on-site verification of the project results once again verifies the leading and reliable autonomous driving technology for heavy-duty trucks on the TRUNK.TECH highway, and has the ability to operate autonomous freight commercial operations in real highway traffic environments. Next, TRUNK.TECH will take the lead in collaborating with commercial vehicle manufacturers and logistics companies to carry out real autonomous truck freight business, actively exploring and polishing the integration of the Beijing Tianjin Hebei region; Smart freight channel+autonomous driving capacity; Business model.
The Tonggang Dayuan project aims to effectively promote the construction of smart freight channels and the integrated development of smart logistics in the Beijing Tianjin Hebei region. It is led by China Merchants Highway, with China Merchants New Intelligence responsible for overall project design, key product research and development, system integration construction, and formulation of scheme standards and specifications. Since the project was approved and launched in 2022, TRUNK.TECH has continued to actively cooperate with investment promotion highways, investment promotion new intelligence and other cooperative units to carry out project construction. By the end of that year, the closed-loop self-test operation of the entire process of autonomous driving truck formation for cargo transportation from Tianjin Port, via the Beijing Tianjin Tang Expressway to the Majuqiao Logistics Park was initially completed; In December 2023, the Beijing and Tianjin sections of the Beijing Tianjin Tangshan Expressway were officially included in the road work for autonomous driving vehicles. The Beijing Tianjin Tangshan Expressway became the first cross provincial and city autonomous driving test road in China that supports vehicle road collaboration; In January 2024, TRUNK.TECH and China Merchants Highway, as well as China Merchants New Intelligence, officially launched actual vehicle testing, completing single vehicle autonomous driving truck loading testing and 3-5 vehicle formation autonomous driving testing
The Beijing Tianjin Tangshan Expressway is a golden passage connecting Beijing and Tianjin, with a large flow of vehicles and fast speeds. In addition to small passenger cars, it is mostly container trucks or irregularly shaped specialized transport vehicles, which have higher technical requirements for safe, long-lasting, and stable implementation of truck autonomous driving and formation. As a technology company that has always focused on the research and application of commercial vehicle autonomous driving, TRUNK.TECH has launched its independently developed&quo; for various commercial vehicle chassis and transportation business scenarios and working conditions; AiTrucker&rdquo& Flash& Flash; L4 level autonomous driving software and hardware system, which is based on&quo; Radar+Vision; Multi sensor fusion, integrated based on&quo; BEV+Transformer” The advanced algorithm of the architecture has accumulated over ten million kilometers in long-term testing and commercial operation, ultimately successfully supporting the full process autonomous driving under real traffic conditions on the Beijing Tianjin Tang Expressway.
It is worth mentioning that TRUNK.TECH is the only enterprise to carry out autonomous truck fleet transportation in the Tonggang Dayuan project, based on self-developed technology; TRUNK CAFC” The networked autonomous driving freight formation technology can achieve the formation operation of 3-5 intelligent trucks, with the technical characteristics of low spacing, millisecond level response, and vehicle road cloud cooperation, effectively reducing air resistance, improving fuel efficiency, improving road traffic capacity and transportation safety. It is truly the most globally efficient and cost-effective road transportation solution. Currently,&quo; TRUNK CAFC” In addition to further testing and demonstration in the Tonggang Dayuan project, the technology is also being tested and commercialized in multiple regions such as Shandong, the Yangtze River Delta, and Inner Mongolia, and continues to participate in research, testing verification, and standard formulation related to national ministries and commissions such as the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Ministry of Transport.
With the promotion of a number of national level pilot projects for intelligent transportation, such as Tonggang Dayuan, autonomous driving technology is representing new quality productivity, and building a modern transportation industry system with higher efficiency, quality, and depth. As a practitioner in the field of artificial intelligence, TRUNK.TECH will continue to pursue technological innovation guided by industrialization, create more professional intelligent transportation solutions, and actively promote cost reduction, quality improvement, and efficiency enhancement in logistics transportation.
