Golden Dragon
Ready for Tomorrow
The integration of information and telecommunication into a vehicle makes an intelligent vehicle become an important carrier and the typical application. Intelligent, autonomous vehicles shape the tendency of vehicle technology and the industry development in the future.
As the new outcome of global technology revolution, the intelligent autonomous vehicle has developed beyond the boundary of the vehicle industry. Vehicle intelligence is the typical application of sensors, mechatronics and artificial intelligence to enhance vehicles or make them become fully autonomous vehicles.
Features that may depend on vehicle intelligence include adaptive cruise control, stability control, accident avoidance systems, navigation and adaptive engine control.
Making the City More Alive
Astar Mirco-circulation autonomous bus is co-designed by Golden Dragon with the DCA. It is specially designed for the automatic driverless. The design concept of fashion streamlined makes the Astar bus body possess the lower drag coefficient.
Minor Dimension, More Space
Astar bus adopts the integrated design of 1.1 meters width bus door to ensure safe boarding and save the parking time efficiency, this will bring the value maximization. With 9+1 passenger seats, the maximum capacity can be 24, this will easily deal with the passenger flow in the rush hour.
The simple style of passenger compartment design with the bright colour, electronic sliding plug doors, 32-inch LCD kiosk, and large size windows will always provide a comfortable sitting atmosphere for the passengers.
Smartpilot Autonomous Driving Platform
Smartpilot is the outcome of product reformation and technology innovation, to which Golden Dragon has been devoted. It is also the latest intelligence driving system with the development concept of practicality and applicability. Smartpilot Autonomous Driving Platform consists of a sensing layer, fusion layer and a control planner layer. It can communicate with the driver and passengers through the Man-machine interface. Engineers also make the redundancy designs of each part of this platform of this platform for the sake of safety.
Level 4 Autonomous Driving Mode
Depending on the big data platform and IOV (Internet of Vehicle) technology, 5G technology will strengthen the vehicle perception system – men, vehicles and roads are no longer separated, they are the real integration. Based on 5G Network, Golden Dragon IOV technology has the advantages of high reliability, low-delay, high bandwidth and so on.
Optimize Your Business
With the rapid development of urban and the public transportation, more and more communities and towns can not be covered by the public traffic. Within some enclosed areas like industry or tourist areas, people are not easy to find proper eco-friendly means of transportation. From the analysis of Big Data and Market Research, Golden Dragon believes that the ideal of sharing smart transportation in Astar bus is the tendency of future.
The AI of Astar bus can analyse the custom of passengers, then make the planning program to make the transportation efficiently. Passengers can also make an arrangement of Astar bus route by phone application to achieve the trip from home to destination.
