The ultimate goal is to open its fully autonomous driving capabilities by 2020.


The Chinese internet giant today announced its Apollo project that will see its platform, including vehicle platform, hardware platform, software platform and cloud data services, opened to help others in the industry, particularly car manufacturers, to develop autonomous vehicles. Baidu is opening its self-driving vehicle platform in a bid to help drive the development of autonomous cars. Baidu was one of the first major tech companies to embrace artificial intelligence and machine learning, and its autonomous vehicle push began with road testing in Beijing in 2015.
