Recent reports suggest that XPeng Motors is internally developing a new technology called "Crowd-Sourced Mapping," aimed at enhancing the accuracy of its autonomous driving system's navigation. This technology, which has been in development for several months, is currently in the research phase and may eventually supplement XPeng's Level 3 autonomous driving solutions.
Crowd-sourced mapping relies on multiple vehicles working together to collect road data in real-time, dynamically generating and updating maps. This technology's advantage lies in its ability to cover areas that sensors might miss, providing the autonomous driving system with more comprehensive route references. In simple terms, it's like giving vehicles "eagle eyes," allowing them to navigate complex traffic situations with ease.
