Thanks to the open source approach, more than 130 partners from industry and science have already been able to work together, among them well-known international companies such as Microsoft, Intel, Daimler AG and Ford. With the wide range and expertise of these partners, Apollo can cover most of the relevant areas for self-driving vehicles, which includes, among other things, the sensor technology, other hardware as well as programming and control.<\/p>\n<p>At the launch event of the collaboration, Sven Patuschka, Chief Technical Officer of Volkswagen (China) Investment Co., said Apollo&#8217;s open source approach is highly promising and will accelerate the development of autonomous driving. Volkswagen wants to contribute its development expertise of the brands VW and Audi, a first joint project is imminent. Apollo owns a recently build dedicated test site for autonomous driving in Xiongan, China, south of Beijing. There, a Volkswagen test vehicle will be equipped with Apollo software and extensively tested.
