Peugeot and Almotive team up to conduct Level 4 autonomous driving tests

It is reported that on the 6th, Peugeot car manufacturer PSA Group announced a partnership with Almotive and will conduct AI-based Level 4 autonomous driving tests on French highways. Among them, Almotive is a startup company headquartered in Hungary that is committed to developing autonomous vehicle technology. Let's follow the automotive electronics editor to learn about the relevant content.

In the pilot project, the team will test the car at an autonomous driving speed of 80 miles per hour (about 130km/h). This time they will use the Citroen C4 Picasso test car and install AImotive sensors, related computer hardware and its self-developed software in the car.

It is worth noting that the autonomous driving test level this time is Level 4, which is the "highly automated driving" level. Generally speaking, we use Level 4 autonomous driving to describe a fully automated driving system, which generally does not require human intervention except in some special circumstances. The level of autonomous driving currently available on the market is Level 3.

For this test, Almotive provided it with a "full set" of AI-based autonomous driving software.

It is understood that Almotive has recently expanded its business to the United States. The company said that their goal is to be able to produce a scalable autonomous driving system that can be used by automakers regardless of their specific hardware and vehicle structure designs.

AImotive isn’t Groupe PSA’s only autonomous driving partner. Earlier this year, the Peugeot carmaker also teamed up with Boston-based NuTonomy.
