Audi has disclosed its own pilotless vehicles receptive the CES show



January 7, in the Daimler-Benz and the incumbent president Dieter Zetsche (Dieter Zetsche) Dr released a product called at CES "F015 Luxury in Motion" new concept of electric cars on the same day, the latest development code-named Audi "Jack" of autonomous vehicles arrived the same day in Las Vegas CES booth. It should be noted that this particular version of the A7 originally from California's Silicon Valley, the completion of the 560 miles of the trek before arriving in this CES show.



  Although Audi "Jack" is still in the stage of concept cars, but whether it is Daimler, Audi or other participants CES, car manufacturers are undoubtedly transfer to the outside world in a very clear signal that now is not only autonomous vehicles only a science fiction movie to appear in the technology, but rather has become an important element of today's auto market.

  Currently, Google is undoubtedly in autopilot technology go furthest of technology, the company developed autonomous vehicles has begun a long road test. However, Zetsche President also reminded us on this CES, in fact, as early as 30 years ago, Mercedes-Benz began development work autopilot technology. As part of the "Eureka Prometheus Project" (Eureka Prometheus Project), and Mercedes-Benz have developed autonomous vehicles has completed 620 miles of testing on the German Autobahn autobahn.

  "At that time, almost all of the project development partners believe that this project is too crazy, too complicated, the cost is too high. But now they are no longer a problem. At present, we need to do is bring this technology from R & D phase of the transition to a commercial promotion stage, and I think now is the time to seriously think about the future of the automotive industry. "Zetsche said.

  It should be said, the Mercedes-Benz "F015 Luxury in Motion" in the publishing process has been carefully arranged Benz concept car built by the body of carbon fiber material, and the use of hydrogen fuel to power. At the press conference, Mercedes-Benz "F015 Luxury in Motion" slowly into the booth, stop, open the door, followed by the current US Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) President and CEO Gary - Shapiro (Gary Shapiro) from the car came out. Shapiro after staging Thank Zetsche let yourself take a tour ride, then stressed that Mercedes-Benz is the first designed specifically for CES to create a concept car automobile manufacturers.

  However, the Audi "Jack" style on the stage with the "F015 Luxury in Motion" all different, the car is up to 560 miles after a complete autopilot without manual intervention came to CES show. However, in order to comply with California law, Audi or as "Jack" is equipped with a pilot, and there is a lot of media reporters also take "Jack" road test photos.

  Audi's R & D department heads, VW board member Ulrich - Hackenberg (Ulrich Hackenberg) Dr. said: "The road test results showed that the perfect vehicle technologies mature."

  "autopilot Today's cars can greatly improve road safety and reduce human error, and give people more space and time. In short, the car will gradually become the mobile home, and this is our new definition of luxury cars for the future. " Zetsche added.

  At the same time, Zetsche will now auto industry is undergoing profound changes in the evolution of the year with the toilet were compared. At first, the family bathroom is just a small space, and the role of this space is also very simple, but now the toilet has begun more and more people pay attention, even become a people can be used to relax the rest of the private space . By the same token, the future of the car may also become people dating, chat, private space to relax.

  It is worth mentioning that the current autopilot technology is also facing such as legal, registration and vehicle information in the encounter when selecting unavoidable accident and other issues, but Zetsche believes this technology in general, or in their rapid development stage.

  "Other car manufacturers are also vigorously develop the technology, which is good news, because we are not the only battle in the war party." Zetsche said at last.
