Apollo 5.5 enhances the complex urban road autonomous driving capabilities of previous Apollo releases, by introducing curb-to-curb driving support. With this new addition, Apollo is now a leap closer to fully autonomous urban road driving.
The car has complete 360-degree visibility, along with upgraded perception deep learning model a brand new prediction model to handle the changing conditions of complex road and junction scenarios, making the car more secure and aware. New Planning scenarios have been introduced to support curb-side functionality.

Autonomous Drive Capabilities

Vehicles with this version can drive autonomously in complex urban road conditions including both residential and downtown areas. BE CAUTIOUS WHEN DRIVING AUTONOMOUSLY, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT OR IN POOR VISION ENVIRONMENT. URBAN DRIVING INVOLVES NAVIGATING HIGH RISK ZONES LIKE SCHOOLS, PLEASE TEST APOLLO 5.5 WITH THE SUPPORT FROM APOLLO ENGINEERING TEAM, PLEASE AVOID DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY OR AT SPEEDS THAT ARE ABOVE OUR SUPPORTED THRESHOLD.
