Target Smart Travel Weilai/Tencent Sign Cooperation Agreement
On November 28, Weilai signed a cooperation agreement with Tencent. The two sides agreed to conduct in-depth cooperation in the fields of intelligent driving maps, autonomous driving clouds, digital ecological communities, etc. In the future, both parties will conduct in-depth exploration on the research and development of intelligent driving technology and user experience innovation of Weilai.
Weilai and Tencent will focus on the map data system of "three in one" of standard map, lane level map and high-precision map, and help Weilai realize the innovative experience of people and vehicles sharing the seamless integration of standard navigation and high-precision navigation. When the vehicle is in different modes such as manual driving, assisted driving and intelligent driving, this map can automatically match the most suitable map navigation form for the current scene. For example, when driving manually, this map will provide accurate guidance at the lane level and God's perspective beyond visual distance, so that drivers can see the route at a glance; For another example, during intelligent driving, in addition to providing real-time, fresh and high-precision map data for vehicles, this map can also enable users to grasp what the vehicle's intelligent driving system is doing and what decisions have been made, making travel more reassuring.
In addition, Tencent will also provide Weilai with cloud computing capabilities, provide computing power for large-scale data storage, computing and model training required by automatic driving from research and development to operation, and support multiple computing engines to help Weilai further release data value and accelerate the implementation of automatic driving research and development. Tencent Cloud can support the access efficiency of 100W QPS under the trillion file scale, help algorithm development TCO (total cost of ownership) to significantly reduce, and will be able to fully meet the performance, cost, security and open requirements of Weilai EB class automated driving data storage.
Relying on Tencent's rich digital content ecology and cabin cloud services, the two sides will also work together to build an end cloud integrated vehicle service platform, and expand more abundant scene based user services and Weilai community ecology. At present, focusing on intelligent travel, Tencent has reached cooperation with more than 100 car enterprises and travel technology companies in the fields of Internet of Vehicles, automatic driving, cloud, location services, travel services, etc
