Baidu releases Apollo 5.0 with upgrades for ‘complex’ road scenarios
Beijing-based Baidu last week quietly released the latest version of Apollo, its open source full-stack software solution for driverless vehicles. Apollo 5.0 — which follows on the heels of Apollo Lite, the company’s vision-based framework that enables nearly fully autonomous driving under select conditions — introduces a number of new features, including an upgraded perception model for “complex” road scenarios and a bespoke sensor calibration service.
