This year, the IVISTA has upgraded with one forum, four core competitions, and an additional intelligent automotive technology event. With new challenges and a new standard set, the 2023 IVISTA presents to the audience a brand-new experience.
As a star event of the Smart China Expo, the IVISTA Grand Challenge is now in its sixth edition since 2018. With a reputation for professionalism, international reach, and brand recognition, the past five editions of the competition have drawn over 620 professional teams and enthusiastic participation from numerous consumer participants.
This has established IVISTA as a leading event in the intelligent connected vehicle field, with unmatched scale, influence, and authority recognized both within the industry and beyond.
Functional Autonomous Vehicle Challenge, one of the core competitions, encompassed various aspects including basic driving ability testing, obstacle detection, emergency braking and avoidance, precise parking and delivery, intersection navigation, and adaptation to unique road conditions.
Sun Yinyin, the challenge director, introduced us to one new feature in this year’s challenge is the special scenario where GNSS signal loss. Sun said there would be a random area where the GNSS signal is lost for 30-45 seconds, and the vehicle should promptly switch to other positioning methods such as LiDAR SLAM to maintain vehicle localization and ensure uninterrupted operation during GNSS signal loss.

Twenty teams participated in the Functional Autonomous Vehicle Challenge, representing various major universities across the country. Following compliance screening, a total of 13 teams qualified for the final competition.
With the automatic driving parameter set, the challenge includes various scenarios to evaluate the accuracy of autonomous vehicles in achieving accurate logistics delivery while simulating real-world scenarios to test their rapid emergency decision-making capabilities during the delivery process.

The Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Assembly Competition is divided into two categories: AEB (Automatic Emergency Braking) and APS (Automatic Parking System). A total of 50 mainstream vehicle models from the past 1 to 2 years and those expected to be on the market within the next six months are invited to participate.
Complex scenarios such as crossroad intersections and parking with pedestrian interference have been introduced for the first time. The latest 2023 edition of IVISTA Intelligent Vehicle Index is utilized for assessment, making it a significant challenge for the advanced driving features of mainstream production models.

The 2023 IVISTA Intelligent Connected Vehicle Challenge attracted 142 participating teams, with 60 participants from nearly 50 brands in the Assisted Driving Assembly competition's two categories. The Virtual Simulation Challenge saw over 62 registrations, narrowing down to 26 teams for the final round. In the Functional Unmanned Vehicle Challenge, 20 teams signed up, and after compliance screening, 13 teams made it to the final competition.
