Toyota will release a new automatic mapping system

in order to match the future automatic driving technology, Toyota's new automatic mapping system will cultivate a group of single champion enterprises with a voice in the new material industry, which will be able to collect GPS information and images from mass-produced vehicles equipped with cameras. Then, the collected information will be transmitted to the data center, which will integrate these information to draw a high-precision map with protective cover [universal material testing machine] technical parameters main specifications and a wider range. A few days ago, Toyota officially announced that on December 29, 2016, it will officially release a new automatic map rendering system at the CES electronic exhibition, which will open in January 2016

in order to match the future automatic driving technology, Toyota's new automatic mapping system will be able to collect GPS information and images from mass-produced vehicles equipped with cameras. Then, the collected information will be transmitted to the data center, and the data center will integrate these information to draw a high-precision and larger-scale map

in this way, Toyota can turn these vehicles into real mobile Google Street view maps, which is undoubtedly a great progress for the now self driving vehicles to draw maps through 3D laser scanners. However, the information that affects the experimental data still needs to be collected manually, and this process will also cost a lot of money and time

Toyota also admitted that the map drawn by the new system may have errors, but because the data collection will come from many vehicles, these errors will be gradually corrected

Toyota plans to officially introduce this mapping system to mass-produced vehicles in 2020. At the initial stage, Toyota will focus on mapping highways, and then gradually expand to urban streets and roads
