Bosch's autonomous driving patent ranks first, pushing Toyota and Volkswagen

Which is the automatic driving? Most of us can think of companies like Tesla and Google, but do you know how many autopilot patents they really have? The answer may be quite different from what you think.

According to data provided by Grunecker Patent Attorneys, a German law firm specializing in intellectual property law in Munich, Germany, from 2010 to 2015, the first place in the autopilot patent application form is Bosch, rather than frequently appearing in the public eye. Tesla and Google.

In this ranking table, NBD found that, except Bosch ranked first with 2,710 auto-driving related technology patents, Toyota ranked second with 2,061 patent applications, and Volkswagen ranked third with 1,173 related patent applications. In contrast, Google only has 140 patent applications, ranking 26, and Tesla did not even appear in this ranking. In addition, none of the Chinese companies are on the list.

"Automobile intelligence is more practical for car companies, and it can add points to the models. Chinese companies are currently in the intelligent car, and they still don't have enough capacity, mainly relying on external procurement." According to NBD Auto, at present, autonomous driving is jointly developed by some large foreign suppliers and IT companies.

NBD Motors learned that Bosch, the number one in this ranking, is an auto parts supplier. It has clearly stated that it will not join the ranks of the car, and will only appear as an autonomous driving supplier. In the field of automatic driving, it is still more inclined to the role of software vendors.

The second-ranked Toyota and the third Volkswagen tend to develop autopilot software that matches their models, such as the touch panel of Volkswagen's autopilot system.

In the above list, in addition to automakers and component suppliers, there are also electronics companies like Samsung, LG and Siemens, which are also focused on exploring specific autopilot technologies that can be sold to other automakers, rather than adding Car ranks.

At present, most of China's self-owned brand companies have indicated that they will be deployed in the field of automatic driving, but the current development is not very fast. Although Changan Automobile has completed the 2000km unmanned road test, it will take time to commercialize it. In addition, some newly-created driverless companies, such as the one that has just been trial-operated in Fangshan District, Beijing, are still in the early stage. . For example, the following car is the unmanned equipment carried on the current car, and the development has not reached the stage of maturity.

It is reported that the development schedule of the intelligent network connection vehicle will be launched in the first quarter of 2017, and the relevant standards for intelligent network connection vehicle technology in the intelligent network connection vehicle technology will also be formulated at the end of the year.

It is believed that with the establishment of the intelligent network standard system, China's own brands will gradually develop in the field of automatic driving.
