OPPO is also going to build a car? Its patents related to autonomous driving are exposed

Recently, OPPO announced a set of invention patents related to "anti-collision reminder methods, devices, vehicle-mounted equipment and storage media" and "ranging devices, ranging methods, cameras and electronic devices".

It is understood that these patents are all related to autonomous driving or unmanned vehicles. Some media outside speculate that OPPO is likely to be developing vehicle central control systems and related technologies for autonomous driving, just like Huawei.

Among them, according to the abstract of its patent application, the patent for anti-collision reminder can remind the driver when the distance between two vehicles is close under adverse weather conditions such as night, fog, heavy rain, and no street lights, so as to avoid accidents and ensure safety. The patent for vehicle control can control the vehicle without the user entering the car, which simplifies the operation and improves the user experience. In addition, information is not easily leaked, which improves data security.

The vehicle positioning patent can achieve higher-precision positioning to solve the current problem of low positioning accuracy. The distance measurement patent uses electronic devices such as cameras, light sources, and beam splitters to better measure distances in autonomous driving.

Summarize:

In the past two years, electric cars have been very popular, and many companies outside the industry have also crossed over to make electric cars, including Apple, a major smartphone manufacturer. Huawei, another major smartphone manufacturer, has always emphasized that it does not make cars, but it has launched a full-stack automotive solution to empower car manufacturers. Now, OPPO has also begun to enter the electric car industry.
