(Washington Reuters) Chinese autonomous driving car companies' doubts in the US market's operations have caused security at the security level.
Budijiger said in an interview with Reuters on Thursday (July 20): "Whether it is hardware or software, just like telecommunications companies or Tiktok, people are worried about China's transportation technology."
He believes that the United States must better understand the real ownership of these Chinese transportation technology companies, because these companies are providing different levels of technology and construction for American transportation systems.
Four MPs of the Democratic Party and Republican Party on Monday (17th) to Budigiger and US Secretary of Commerce Raymond, asking the government to investigate the popularity of Chinese autonomous driving technology in the United States, and to these Chinese technologyTake restrictions.
Four members wrote in the letter: "The technology used by autonomous vehicles, such as Lidar, Radar, cameras, artificial intelligence, and other advanced sensors and semiconductors can be used for collectingRegarding the data of the American people and infrastructure, and transmit it back to the Chinese and Chinese governments. "
Four members are particularly concerned about the testing of Chinese autonomous driving technology and equipment in the United States.According to data from the California regulatory agency, seven Chinese companies conducted autonomous driving technology tests in California last year, including Baidu's Apollo and Chinese autonomous driving startup Pony.
Compared with Chinese autonomous driving technology, the United States' autonomous driving technology is progressing slowly in commercialization, and many autonomous vehicle companies cut costs and employment positions.The ARGO AI supported by Ford and Volkswagen has closed down, and GM's cruise (Cruise), Waymo of Google, and ZOOX of Amazon are still promoting development.
