Against a background of the widespread use of L2+ intelligent driving technologies, increasing consumers demand for higher-level intelligent driving functions. There is an urgent need to implement high-level autonomous driving functions with low cost and high performance. Driving and parking integrated solutions thus come into being.
Driving and parking integration refers to a solution that combines the functions of the two SoCs of driving and parking into one SoC to enable high-speed driving assistance and low-speed parking assistance at the same time. This solution features low hardware cost, flexible software configurations, and efficient function iterative development.
Compared with the previous development model of separate driving and parking functions, the driving and parking integrated solution enables sensor hardware reusability, lower development cost, and availability of high-level intelligent driving functions (automatic lane change, on/off-ramp, home-AVP, valet parking, etc.) to low- and mid-end vehicle models.
Driving and parking integrated solutions will sink to low- and mid-end vehicle models in quantities.
In current stage, the vehicle models with driving and parking integrated solutions are led by Xpeng P7/P5, Li L9, TANK 500, IM L7, Roewe RX5, Baojun e300/Plus, Geely Xingyue L, and the NOP edition of fuel-powered vehicle JAC SOL QX. In addition, Weltmeister and Mocha plan use of the integrated solutions in their vehicles this year. BYD projects to equip its vehicles with the driving and parking integrated solution Horizon Journey 5 in 2023.
In China, local suppliers such as Freetech, Neusoft Reach, and YIHANG.AI play a dominant role in the driving and parking integrated solution market.
Freetech has rolled out high-level autonomous driving solutions based on ADAS\AD domain controllers (ADC), including three versions: ADC20 (supporting L2.9), ADC25 (urban scenarios), and ADC30 (L3-L4). Meeting the needs of L2-L4 products, they enable on/off-ramp and automatic lane change in highway scenarios, automatic follow in urban traffic jams, and automated parking in low-speed scenarios.

Freetech's latest-generation domain controller platform solution ADC20 adopts an original architecture that not only supports driving and parking integration, but also enables highway navigate on autopilot (NOA). The integrated solution provides improving functions and performance and allows more anthropomorphic system control, using embedded hardware, data optimization and OTA. It will be mass-produced and delivered to passenger car customers in the second half of 2022, offering continuous function OTA updates.
In addition, the high-level autonomous driving solution based on the ADC30 domain controller platform is expected to be spawned in 2023. The solution delivers up to 500+ TOPS AI computing power. In terms of driving, it enables L3 highway pilot (HWP), traffic jam pilot (TJP) and navigate on pilot (NOP); as for parking it enables up to L4 home zone park assist (HPA) and automated valet parking (AVP) functions. The solution subject to the ISO 26262 ASIL D functional safety requirements has been designated by FAW Hongqi.

The driving and parking integrated domain will fuse with the cockpit domain.
As automotive E/E architecture evolves from the distributed to the centralized, large computing power chips are mounted on vehicles and some domain controller functions have been integrated, for example, the integration of vehicle control unit (VCU), body control module (BCM), and some gateway functions, and even the fusion of driving, cockpit and body domains.
![行泊一体 7_副本.png](/UpLoads/Article/2022/行泊一体%207_副本.png)

In the future, the evolution of automotive EEA and SOA will be accompanied by the development from centralized domain controller and cross-domain controller to vehicle central computer and intelligent zone controller, eventually realizing vehicle-cloud computing. The central domain controller therefore will pack a computing platform with higher integration level and greater computing power to support more complex sensor data fusion algorithms for higher levels of autonomous driving.
The full-stack self-development + data-driven mode accelerates the implementation of driving and parking integrated solutions.
In the phase of mass production, for the software and hardware in an autonomous driving system are highly coupled, the full-stack self-development allows better analysis of technical problems in the R&D process and meets the customization needs of automakers. In addition, collecting an enormous amount of operational data of real scenarios facilitates iteration of autonomous driving data and technology and thus builds a closed value loop. As a result, driving and parking integrated solution providers race to apply the full-stack self-development + data-driven approach to accelerate the implementation of their solutions.
