– Expand participation of local companies in R&D projects for future car conversion
The city of Daegu is implementing various policies to 'revitalize the local economy through fostering the autonomous vehicle industry', and for this purpose, it plans to lead the development of the local auto parts industry by actively supporting the conversion of future vehicles.
The global automobile market is rapidly reorganizing into an electric vehicle-based future car industry structure amid a low growth trend. Research forecast data), and the domestic market size is expected to expand to KRW 2035 trillion.
In the case of Japan's Honda, in March 21, it sold a limited number of 3 cars with a level 50 level of self-driving driving at less than 3 km per hour, and Hyundai Motor Company announced that it would release an Ioniq 100-based robotaxi with a level 23 level of self-driving level 4 in 5.
The government announced the 'Future Automotive Industry Development Strategy' ('27. June) did.
In line with this, Daegu City also launched the Future Car Conversion Comprehensive Support Center to support future car business conversion (January 22.1), and industry, academia, research institutes, and governments cooperate closely to discover and promote various collaboration measures, such as support for research and development in the field of future cars, training of maintenance and management experts for future car maintenance, training of convergence experts to lead the development of the future car industry, joint research and development between heterogeneous companies involving parts companies, information and communication related companies, research institutes, universities, etc., and strategic alliances.
Among the existing internal combustion engine parts companies, 7 companies including Sambo Motors, Innocom, Era AMS, Kyungchang Industrial, JJ Motors, Chajiin, and DJen Co., Ltd. are the Business Reorganization Plan Deliberation Committee promoted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy of the future car market.
Many local companies are participating in the central government support project for future car R&D support and the city’s self-initiated technology development project for future vehicles. , Sett Co., Ltd. is a V3X equipment for autonomous vehicle communication, Chargein is an autonomous vehicle accident recorder, an integrated driver’s seat for autonomous vehicles and information systems that can be experienced in the vehicle are software development with companies such as Dizen and FusionSoft. Companies are participating in various forms, and many companies are conducting R&D on vehicle lidar and radar sensors, which are core sensors.
By gathering the capabilities of auto parts makers in these regions, SL, Rae AMS, Sambo Motors, Pyeonghwa Valeo, and THN signed a business agreement to develop and produce 'autonomous driving means' centering on Autonomous AXNUMXG. did. As the regional autonomous driving-related technology development and the atmosphere of transition to future cars are expected to rapidly spread around this meeting, Daegu Metropolitan City will build expensive equipment that is difficult for individual companies to prepare to support these companies and demonstrate them in practice. For this purpose, we are promoting the construction of a demonstration environment for downtown roads and the construction of a database for the automobile industry.
5G-based autonomous driving convergence technology demonstration platform construction project promoted by Daegu City (20~22, KRW 356 billion), future car digital convergence industry demonstration platform construction project (21~'24, KRW 443 billion), automobile industry The future technological innovation open platform ecosystem construction project ('21~'25, KRW 475 billion) is expected to serve as a basis for the transformation and development of future vehicles of local auto parts companies.
Road facilities for self-driving cars include Suseong Alpha City, Technopolis, Daegu National Industrial Complex, and Dalseong Secondary Industrial Complex by installing roadside devices, emergency detectors, and meteorological observation equipment on roads with a total length of more than 2 km. By mutually sharing vehicle information, road information, and road surface information, an environment in which safe operation verification, autonomous driving system and performance evaluation for each vehicle part, and vehicle operation information for each driving situation can be collected and analyzed is implemented.
In the future, by establishing an infrastructure for testing and certification and attracting a certification center, the company plans to take the lead in fostering the autonomous vehicle industry by creating an environment that can support the full cycle of autonomous driving commercialization linking the driving test center and demonstration road at once.
In addition, by establishing an open data environment that comprehensively collects, standardizes, and analyzes various industrial data in the automobile sector, which is difficult for individual companies to secure, the automobile industry data ecosystem is revitalized and the digital transformation capabilities of local SMEs are enhanced to improve product performance, develop new products, and develop new concepts. We plan to support the discovery of big data-based commercialization models such as services.
The autonomous vehicle industry is an industry that creates great added value by convergence of cutting-edge technologies in various fields such as machinery, electronics, information communication, and software, and is expected to serve as a foothold for shared growth of related industries.
Lee Seung-dae, head of Daegu City's Innovation and Growth Bureau, said, "For the development of the automobile industry, which is the totality of future technologies, and the development of local companies, we will systematically prepare the infrastructure, technical support system, and manpower training, and actively support the automobile industry in Daegu. I will,” he said.
