The Opening Ceremony of 2024 World Intelligent Driving Challenge and Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Automotive Supply Chain Innovation and Collaboration Matchmaking Conference gathered government and enterprise experts who have been deeply engaged in the industry for many years to have in-depth discussions and exchanges around keywords such as automotive industry policy and environmental trends, new energy and intelligent network ecology, supply chain security and layout, etc, and to guide the direction of the industry chain and supply chain in the future development. The Matchmaking Conference brought together supply chain leaders from China FAW, Lantu Automobile, BAIC, BAIC Blue Valley, Great Wall Motor, FAW Toyota, Geely Automobile, Lingpao Automobile, Hezhong Automobile, and Lotus Automobile, etc., to study the development trend of the industry, seek for the project cooperation opportunities, and share the opportunities of the industry development.

1. Tianrongxin Cup Information Security Challenge

The competition is held in the form of virtual platform test, divided into online preliminaries and offline finals. During the competition, the teams penetrate into real vehicles by means of automobile network security range, which mainly includes software and hardware security, communication security and application security of intelligent networked vehicles.

2. Intelligent Networked Vehicle Competition

The competition focuses on L4 and above high-level autonomous driving modified vehicles, including two categories of competition subjects: single-vehicle intelligence and vehicle-circuit coordination. Among them, the single-vehicle intelligence competition items include: variable lanes, traffic control, no-signalised intersection access and other subjects; the vehicle-road cooperation competition items include: appointment vehicle pick-up (I2V), traffic light priority access (V2I), give way to ambulance (V2V) and other subjects.

3.Mass Production Application Challenge

Following the latest test regulations of C-NCAP 2024, new intersection scenarios, highway tailgating scenarios and AEB misuse scenarios are added as key assessment items of the competition. For models with advanced assisted driving capability, memory parking and pilot assistance test items are added based on C-ICAP, while the degree of urgency is added as a judgement indicator for comfort, showing the most cutting-edge intelligent driving capability in the market. Add extreme challenge scenarios, integrating a variety of difficult working conditions, to show the level of intelligent driving safety of vehicles in extreme environments.

4. Intelligent Cockpit AI Big Model Race (new event)

The Intelligent Cockpit AI Big Model Race aims to demonstrate the intelligent level of big models in intelligent cockpit voice recognition, semantic understanding and other tasks, generate a corpus and test and evaluation dimensions based on user scenario requirements, determine the evaluation index levels and their weights, conduct in-depth cross-assessment of models equipped with big models, and accumulate relevant data through testing, so as to provide industry references for vehicle enterprises. As the competition vehicle, a mass-produced vehicle normally sold or to be listed on the market will be used as the competition vehicle, and the referee of the organising committee and the engineer of the car company will drive the competition vehicle and complete the required corpus test items in the competition.

Up to now, more than 109 teams have been recruited to participate in the World Intelligent Driving Challenge. Among them, 17 teams of Intelligent Network Link real car race, from Beijing Xuetuling Education Technology Co., Ltd, Tsinghua University, Tianjin University, Beijing Jiaotong University, Beijing Institute of Technology, Southeast University, Xihua University, Beijing University of Chemical Technology, Changan University, Tianjin University of Science and Technology, Shaanxi University of Science and Technology, Chongqing University of Technology and Industry, and Tianjin Zhongde University of Applied Science and Technology participated in the race team.
