5g will become the most frequently used word in 2020. In the past year, 45 telecom operators around the world have begun to deploy 5g. Obviously, 5g will change our lives at a speed far faster than 4G. As the world's largest mobile phone chip supplier, at this CES, Qualcomm also showed its overall layout of 5g era for the first time, initially completing the comprehensive coverage of mobile phones, computers, cars and cloud
different from the previous press conference in which mobile phone business occupied the C position, the biggest space of this CES press conference of Qualcomm was about the automobile business. For the first time, the automotive field has become the focus of Qualcomm's layout. In addition to the Internet of vehicles business that has been laid out before, this time, Qualcomm has also extended its tentacles to automatic driving
automatic driving platform with more flexibility and lower power consumption at the press conference of Qualcomm on the eve of CES, Qualcomm officially launched the new snapdragonride platform, officially listed various problems encountered in current automatic driving, and said that its own platform is one of the most advanced and scalable open automatic driving solutions in the automotive instry. This kind of scene is like, one day, a former mobile phone chip maker suddenly stood in front of a pile of car Tier1 and sighed: "there is no one who can take a taxi. I have to come to the automatic driving solution."
with the development of 5g and artificial intelligence technology, more and more technology companies have joined the automotive instry, using the advantages of chips and software to enable intelligent vehicles and accelerate the intelligent and networking process of vehicles. Perhaps, owning a more intelligent and convenient car will come true earlier than we think

On November 13, Zero run car is your AI smart chip friend & quot; Lingxin 01 & quot; I sent a confession on my micro blog
The confessions ofare expanded in the form of long graphs and expressed as & quot; I'm afraid you'll be embarrassed if you don't know this friend; I have made a detailed introction to myself
According to previous data statistics, from the current situation of the development of domestic automatic driving chips, domestic car chips do not occupy a large market space, and the domestic car chip autonomy rate is less than 10%. This kind of market situation is undoubtedly beneficial to & quot; Lingxin 01 & quot; The future promotion of the Internet has caused a lot of pressure However, no matter what, zero running makes & quot; Lingxin 01 & quot;, It can also be regarded as the opening of China's independent intellectual property rights vehicle specification level intelligent driving chip & quot; New era & quotand why & quot; New era & quot; It's not Weilai, ideal and Xiaopeng who have better sales, higher market value and more financing. It's not important anymore
After all, & quot; When man thinks, God Laughs(the pictures are from the Internet, if there is any infringement, please contact the author to delete)

On January 7, Qualcomm officially released its new autopilot computing platform, snapdragonride. The platform includes security system level chip, security accelerator and autopilot software stack, which can meet the computing requirements of the highest L4 / L5 autopilot. Qualcomm announced that the platform will be delivered to automobile manufacturers and first tier suppliers for preliminary development in the first half of 2020, and the vehicles carrying the platform are expected to be put into mass proction in 2023
interpretation: as early as 2012, Qualcomm entered the automotive chip field. Up to now, the cumulative amount of orders from Qualcomm in the automotive sector has reached $7 billion, up from $6.5 billion two months ago
however, the previous chips were all communication and entertainment chips. At the press conference, Qualcomm disclosed that it has been more than four years since it launched the autopilot chip. In 2017, Qualcomm obtained the license of automatic driving test in California. The purpose of this test is to verify its chip
currently, one of the biggest pain points of autopilot chips is that it is difficult to achieve the balance between computing power and power consumption. From the beginning, Qualcomm decided to make use of its accumulation in the mobile phone chip instry to make high computing power and low power ASIC chips. Snapdragonride, the L4 level automatic driving computing platform released by Qualcomm, is equipped with two self-developed automatic driving processors ml (ASIC), GPU and CPU
snapdragonride platform can achieve the highest computing power of 700tops with 130W power consumption. If this plan can be realized, then Qualcomm's automatic driving scheme is quite competitive in terms of computing power. For example, compared with the 144tops / 72W of Tesla hardware3.0, the energy efficiency advantage of Qualcomm's procts is obvious
among the mass proction schemes, Huawei's mdc600 has the strongest computing power, with 352tops computing power and 352w power consumption; Next is NVIDIA's drivepegasus, with 320tops computing power and 500W power consumption
according to the plan, the computing power of agxorin, the computing platform of Orin based on the next autopilot chip, can reach 2000tops, but the power consumption can also reach 750W, which can hardly be applied to mass proction vehicles
in contrast, Qualcomm's autopilot computing platform does not need a fan or liquid cooling system, but uses a simpler passive air cooling system to achieve higher reliability
snapdragonride platform also reces the number of chips and turns them into L2-L3 automatic driving solutions with computing power of 60-120tops or ADAS solutions with computing power of 30tops. At this CES, Qualcomm and GM reached a cooperation on ADAS business
in terms of business model, Qualcomm's approach is relatively open. It can provide full stack solutions, or only sell chips, algorithms and sensor solutions, which can be handled by customers themselves
in the future, v2x chip will also be one of the important revenue sources of Qualcomm in the automotive business
in addition, through its car to cloudservice, Qualcomm also provides technical support for car companies in cloud computing and Ota. It is worth mentioning that its car to cloudsoftsku supports the security upgrade of chipsets

According to the author's understanding, the new car not only adopts a new design style, but also will be equipped with "coffee intelligence" system for the first time, and will use the latest third-generation high computing power 8155 smart car chip of Qualcomm, so as to provide faster computing power, enhance user experience and enrich the variety of functions. In the power part, the new car is expected to carry the hybrid system newly developed by Great Wall Motors

The feeling of not paying the booth fee should be very good
As far as most people are concerned, arm is a very mysterious existence. There is no arm stand in the whole ces2020, but it almost exists in every CES stand. Who is arm? What kind of company is it? What is the connection with the automobile instry? Because the procts of arm can't be seen or touched, and even the pictures in this article give me a headache, these questions are really hard to answer, so I have to give you a "chestnut" to facilitate your understanding
in order to promote the development of automatic driving, arm has also led GM, Toyota, Continental, Bosch, NXP and NVIDIA to become the self driving car computing Association (avcc) in 2019, and is committed to jointly launching a conceptual computing platform. The purpose of the design of this computing platform is to receive the needs of all parties and give an efficient solution. It can be understood that "Gongbao" is leading the main hotels and chefs to unify their needs, determine the direction, and work together to let consumers have a safe and delicious new year's Eve dinner as soon as possible

In today's era of molar car building, which kind of car building concept is the most advanced? I think it's Toyota tnga and Geely CMA
why there is no MQB, because from the dimension, MQB is only a molar platform, it is not an architecture, because Volkswagen also has MLB, MSB, MEB of electric mole and so on. What are tnga and CMA
at present, there are nearly 20 models based on CMA architecture, covering traditional fuel power, BSG high-performance power, HEV hybrid, PHEV plug-in hybrid and ev pure electric. The data shows that: in May this year, the sales volume of 108822 Geely vehicles based on CMA world-class molar architecture incubation system (including the sales volume of linker brand and Geely Xingyue) accounted for 14%. Including Volvo xc40 and polar star 2, the total sales volume of CMA based models has reached 600000
Bai Xiwen summarized that with the outbreak of the epidemic in 2020, the global auto companies are suffering heavy losses, and the stereotyped models are boring. Many auto companies are further increasing revenue and recing proction costs, and some auto companies are taking the opportunity to further research and development. Toyota and Geely may also usher in a new climax after the epidemic
