辅助驾驶私家车传感器多以摄像头、普通雷达为主。但自动驾驶网约车为了达到极高的安全冗余，通常 采用"传感器融合"方案，确保车辆在某个传感器单点失效的情况下仍然能正常运行。车顶通常会有一个 显眼的激光雷达，并配备多个摄像头、盲区雷达，构成360度无死角的感知系统，其计算平台的算力也 远超有辅助驾驶功能的乘用车。因此自动驾驶网约车的单车成本此前可高达几十万元甚至上百万元，限 制了大规模商业运营的潜力。 "如今，零部件成本在大幅下降。以前一个激光雷达要几万美元，如今激光雷达的价格已经降到几千元 人民币。再如，文远知行研发了'WeRide One自动驾驶通用技术平台'，这个平台可在多场景下使用，因 此算法成本得以大幅下降。"张羽雪说。 今年7月，文远知行推出与联想车计算共同研发的、搭载NVIDIA最新一代DRIVE Thor X芯片的HPC 3.0 高性能计算平台，并率先在其自动驾驶网约车GXR上应用，助力GXR自动驾驶套件成本下降了50%， 为其大规模商业应用按下加速键。 "硬件和软件的成本都在下降，一辆自动驾驶网约车的成本已经下降到现在的小几十万元，而且还在不 断下降中。"张羽雪说。 新华财经广州10月10日电（记 ...
