The test continued, and the surprises came one after another.
The sixth road sign appeared after the "please be careful" sign appeared. In front of the Swift Thunder Car, there was actually a thick white mist of water vapor coming out.
In the fog, everyone could barely see the outline of the Thunderbolt car with the fog lights on and the flashing double jump lights.
Then …
Some sharp-eyed reporters were surprised to find that there were dummies, driven by the slide rails, drilling into the fog.
The multi-directional speedometer supported the tire steering function, and the empty Thunderbolt car began a thrilling journey to avoid pedestrians in the fog.
The reporters didn't see too many details, but the constantly rising score on the side of the screen had already explained the results of the Thunderbolt car.
When the 49th sign moved, the screen showed that the Thunderbolt car currently had a score of 49, and the average time to judge each sign was 0.04 seconds.
Now, even if the technicians of Monster Industries didn't say it, everyone knew that the "virtual driver" was remotely operating the Thunderbolt car. Because it was impossible for humans to have this kind of nerve reaction speed.
Watching the Thunderbolt car go through all the difficulties, the domestic reporters were about to boil.
At this moment, they felt extremely proud in their hearts. Because the Thunderbolt in front of them was created by Hua Xia.
On the contrary, the expression of the United States representative became more and more serious.
From the time they decided to send a representative to serve as a third-party supervisory body, they didn't intend to be a representative. This had nothing to do with face, it was purely a battle of interests.
The delegation was a senior technical staff in Tesla's smart car laboratory. In the eyes of Hua Xia's media, this Thunderbolt car made them feel proud. But in the eyes of the United States delegation, this Thunderbolt car made them completely afraid.
Why could this Thunderbolt car accurately determine all the correct answers like lightning?
Why was it that the Thunderbolt Car had not experienced a single network fluctuation until now?
Although Hua Xia spared no effort in the construction of the 4G wireless network, it was limited by the base station's own technology and the characteristics of the wireless network. No wireless signal receiving terminal could guarantee that the 4G network would always be in a smooth state.
For example, a mobile phone connected to a mobile base station, not only one. It would connect to a number of nearby base stations, but the phone would choose the base station with the best signal as the current one, and the others would be in the backup connection. When the mobile phone moved or the current base station was under heavy load, the mobile phone would automatically switch to the next base station. During this switching process, there would be signal fluctuations.
However, the test had been going on for half an hour, and the Thunderbolt car was still as stable as if it was connected to a fiber optic broadband.
He couldn't wait any longer.
Besides …
In the first place, they did not intend to be a third-party monitoring organization. These senior technicians of Tesla had long developed several interference schemes for the long-distance driving technology.
Thinking of this, the American representative, Jayne, raised his eyebrows at an American reporter sitting opposite him. The latter nodded slightly. Then he raised the heavy camera in his hand and took a picture of the Thunderbolt car.
It was very common for reporters to take pictures with their cameras. In fact, the camera in the American reporter's hand could indeed take pictures.
However, under the modification of Tesla's senior technicians, the flash power of this camera was a little higher, and the flash time was also a little longer.
This was a well-prepared trap that was impossible to detect.
The identification of traffic signs in the Thunderbolt car must be completed through image analysis technology. The reporter only needed to aim at the front camera of the Thunderbolt car and press the shutter at the moment the sign appeared. The strong light from the flash would cause the camera to produce an exposure, and the final scene captured would be white.
Seeing another sign poking out, and seeing that the reporter had taken a few steps forward and aimed the camera at the front camera of the Thunderbolt, the American representatives collectively raised the corners of their mouths, revealing an unpredictable smile.
"Click ~ click ~ click ~ click ~ click ~"
After a standard rapid three consecutive shots, the American representative blinked his eyes that were dazzled by the light and smiled even more happily.
This was a traffic sign for a reverse bend. The representative of the United States was just about to make a fool of himself, but 0.04 seconds later, in the empty cab of the Thunderbolt, the steering wheel turned into a windmill, and the car passed through the bend as easily as a flat road.
What's going on!
This must be an accident. It doesn't matter. There will be many opportunities later. Jayne and a group of senior technicians comforted themselves.
The sign appeared again, and the American reporter took two more steps, gritted his teeth and pressed the shutter.
The flash went off wildly, and the other reporters were confused. They felt that the American reporter was taking pictures like this. Could it be that there was something interesting?
No, they couldn't let the Americans take all the good photos and good angles. Thinking of this, many reporters followed the trend and took pictures from the Americans' angle.
The American representative's smile froze on his face, and his body stiffened as he watched the score on the side of the screen continue to increase.
"This is impossible." A senior technician sitting to the left of Jayne whispered, "The light diffraction interference of the flash will definitely cause the images captured by the Thunderbolt car's camera to be overexposed. Later, you can ask to see those photos. They definitely won't dare to take them out. "
"You mean … the testing center informed them in advance of the traffic signs that will appear in this test?" Jayne asked suspiciously, "In this test, the data sent and received by the Thunderbolt car can be made public. They shouldn't dare to do this, right?"
"They shouldn't dare, but the camera can't capture a clear image under the fast flashing of the flash. This goes against scientific common sense."
"I understand. I will ask to see the photos after the test." Jayne nodded.
"Also, since we walked into this hall, we have been measuring the stability of the 4G network here. Up until now, we have tested a total of seven network fluctuations. "
"However, the Thunderbolt car was not affected by any fluctuations."
"What does this mean?" Tesla's senior technician smiled. "All signs indicate that there is an unknown collusion between the Monster Industries and the testing center."
The latter continued to nod. Violating these unseen details was a violation of science. After the test, Jayne would definitely lead the media to pressure the Monster Industries.
…
Ninety points …
Ninety-five points …
One hundred points!
The Thunderbolt car went through all the difficulties and pushed the atmosphere of the test to the highest point. It took an average of 0.04 seconds and scored full marks.
When the last road sign disappeared in front of the Thunderbolt car, the Hua Xia reporters at the scene stood up from their seats. In the representative seats, everyone from the transportation department stood up. The technicians from the testing center and Fudan National Laboratory also stood up.
No one knew who was the first to clap, but everyone who stood up followed suit and applauded with all their might.
If they had been worried and doubtful about the Thunderbolt car before, they were now full of admiration.
Monster Industries had made history!
Since the establishment of this testing center, no human had ever scored full marks in the one hundred traffic sign tests, not even ninety points. Now, Monster Industries had done it. Relying on unparalleled technology, they achieved it with a speed that was dozens of times faster than human reaction speed.
