「 Self-driving buses tested 」
「 无人驾驶公交车试运行 」
Four self-driving buses were tested on public roads in Shenzhen, Guangdong, on Saturday. It was believed to be the first such live test in the world. Each bus looks like a normal one. There's even a driver in position for safety. But the new buses are steered automatically along designated routes without a driver's hands ever touching the wheel. They can automatically avoid pedestrians, speed up, slow down, make an emergency stop, change roads and navigate traffic lights. For the test runs, the route is about 1.2 km, with three stations on a public road in a section of Futian district. Speeds are up to about 40 km per hour. The whole trip can be covered in five minutes. Shenzhen Haylion Technologies Co developed the self-driving technology. Hu Jianping, chairman of Haylion, said the pilot buses cost about 500,000 yuan. Hu said there are seven active safety features in each bus, including lasers, infrared light, radar, sensors and a visual scanning system. Test runs of the four buses have covered 8,000 km so far in different parts of Shenzhen over the past four months.
4辆无人驾驶公交车2日在广东深圳的公共道路上展开测试，据信这是世界首个此类载人测试。每辆无人驾驶公交车的外观与普通公交车别无二致，为安全起见，驾驶位上甚至还有一名司机。但这些新型公交车根本不用司机把手放在方向盘上即可自行按指定路线行进。它们能自动避让行人、加速、减速、紧急停车、变道和辨识红绿灯。试运行是在深圳福田区一段开放道路上进行的，线路长约1.2公里，途中设3个停靠站。车速最高达40公里/小时，5分钟可走完全程。这项自动驾驶技术由深圳海梁科技有限公司研发。公司董事长胡剑平表示，这些试运行公交车的成本约为50万元。胡剑平称，每辆公交车都配有7个主动安全设备，包括激光、红外光、雷达、感应器和视觉扫描系统。过去4个月，这4辆公交车在深圳不同区域试运行，截至目前测试里程已达8000公里。
