Recently, Tencent Smart Mobility announced a new and upgraded strategic plan of "integration of vehicles and clouds", and released a one-stop cloud solution "Tencent Smart Auto Cloud" specially tailored for the smart car industry, as well as "Tencent Smart Auto Cloud" covering all aspects of cloud management. Tencent Integrated Vehicle Safety Solution”. At the same time, the white paper "Coping with New Challenges and Preventing New Risks, Digitalization Helps Car Enterprises Turn Crisis into Opportunities", jointly produced by Tencent Smart Mobility and the authoritative organization Gartner, was officially released.

Tang Daosheng, Senior Executive Vice President of Tencent Group and CEO of the Cloud and Smart Industry Business Group, said: " Tencent insists on not building cars , helping car companies build and sell good cars, improve corporate management efficiency, and improve user travel experience. Tencent’s unchanged direction. Tencent will leverage its C2B capabilities and cutting-edge technologies such as cloud computing, AI, and big data to provide the automotive industry with a low-threshold customized platform and tool chain, making the cloud a new productivity for smart cars. ”

｜Autonomous driving has come to the second half of commercial landing

Throughout the development of the entire autonomous driving industry, domestic and foreign autonomous driving companies have basically entered the commercial implementation stage from the technology development stage, and autonomous driving products at all levels are rapidly approaching people's lives.

In the new car market in 2022, L2-level autonomous driving has become the standard for smart cars, and advanced assisted driving functions such as automatic navigation assistance (NOA) and memory parking have also begun to enter the car one after another. More overseas car companies have mass-produced L3-level self-driving cars, which will be delivered to users for use in the near future.

At present, due to policy, cost and other factors, L4 autonomous driving has not been implemented and popularized so fast, but L4 vehicles such as Robotaxi and Robobus have also started commercial operation pilots in some areas and are open to the public.

The development of autonomous driving has entered the second half of commercial implementation. The penetration rate of high-level assisted driving is continuing to grow, and the scale of implementation of high-level autonomous driving is gradually expanding. Autonomous driving companies have basically survived the most difficult initial stage and since the beginning of business. R&D level from 0 to 1. In general, the development of autonomous driving has entered the second half of commercial implementation, the penetration rate of high-level assisted driving is continuing to grow, and the scale of implementation of high-level autonomous driving is gradually expanding.

｜In the second half of the competition, the "cloud" is just needed

With the commercial implementation of technology, there are more and more perception configurations on smart cars, and the performance is getting higher and higher, and the amount of data generated is also increasing. A vehicle with high-level autonomous driving capabilities can return about 6TB of valid data every day, and coupled with the increasing number of vehicles and operating scale, the data pressure faced by autonomous driving companies can be imagined. "Going to the cloud" in autonomous driving R&D, operation and other links has become a major demand for autonomous driving companies today.

Compared with the newly built local computer room, the cloud has stronger advantages in terms of access efficiency, computing efficiency, storage cost, and service release.

According to the "2021 China Automotive Cloud Market Tracking Report" released by Sullivan, the automotive cloud market in Greater China has reached a scale of 33.52 billion yuan in 2021, and the field of autonomous driving cloud services will become a key to China's automotive cloud. areas of growth.

Whether it is from commercialization or self-iterative software algorithms, "going to the cloud" has gradually become an urgent need for autonomous driving companies, and a "good cloud" has also become a key weapon to win the second half of autonomous driving.

｜Tencent brings new solutions to solve the pain points of smart cars "going to the cloud"

In the field of travel, Tencent has built a digital infrastructure with "cloud and map" as the core, and based on this, it provides user connection and user service capabilities, and then grows ecological connection capabilities.

●Vehicle side: smart cockpit (TAI4.0 solution), smart driving (intelligent driving map, high-precision map);

●Mobile terminal: social ecology with WeChat + enterprise WeChat as the core; Tencent travel service applet (WeChat car card, digital key);

●Cloud: Launch intelligent car cloud (autonomous driving, cockpit, car map), intelligent marketing cloud, etc. that highly match the needs of the automotive industry, and provide dynamically growing platform services through aPass. Through the globally accessible cloud deployment capabilities, it can meet the global operation needs of car companies.

This is a step-by-step route along the logic of the industry.

For the demand for "going to the cloud" in the entire smart car field, the hottest thing today is "going to the cloud" for autonomous driving research and development. With the acceleration of the commercialization of autonomous driving, the "cloud" of autonomous driving operations will become the next high demand point.

The Tencent Auto Cloud released by Tencent Smart Mobility this time not only meets the needs of "going to the cloud" in autonomous driving research and development, but also meets the "going to the cloud" needs of future autonomous driving companies in their operations.

In the process of optimizing technical support and improving services, vehicle-cloud integration and data are particularly important. Understand the problems and pain points in the user's use process, and optimize the algorithm to rely on the data generated during the continuous drive.

In terms of auto cloud services, Tencent Smart Mobility has helped more than 100 auto companies and travel technology companies. In terms of ecological opening, Tencent Smart Mobility has also introduced more than 600 cooperative enterprises and launched joint innovative products and solutions.

Overall, Tencent Smart Mobility has gradually become a "digital assistant" and "industry co-builder" for the transformation of the automotive travel industry.
