Baidu, Shouqi team up to develop technology for self-driving vehicles

Chinese search engine giant Baidu and Shouqi Limousine & Chauffeur, a car-hailing operator, are joining up to develop technology for self-driving vehicles, the official Xinhua media service reported on Saturday.

Baidu will provide its Baidu Map service and will offer software and hardware for self-driving vehicles. Shouqi will help Baidu develop high-precision maps for self-driving vehicles.

Baidu is trying to reshape its business around artificial intelligence and autonomous driving, a strategy that has raised concerns among some investors.

Shouqi Limousine & Chauffeur, a subsidiary of the state-owned Shouqi group, operates in more than 50 cities in China.

Baidu recently signed an agreement with BAIC Group to mass-produce Level 4 autonomous vehicles by 2021. It is targeting mass production of autonomous buses with King Long by 2018.
