The autonomous driving was the great absent in the presentation of the Xiaomi Yu7 and there is a reason: the Chinese government

May 22 will be a day for the particular story of Xiaomi as a brand. Taking advantage of its fifteenth anniversary, the company celebrated an event in which He made various ads But, above all, he emphasized two new products: an own chip and its second electric car, the Xioami Yu7. The presentation of Second Xiaomi electric car And his first SUV had everything we expected. The force deployment was total. The company confirmed that a year after launching its first car to the market, almost 300,000 vehicles have already put on the street. He was followed by a presentation where there were no single detail to comment. Luxurious details such as several -layer paintings, retractable shooters at the doors (which close themselves), seats designed to rest in them and, of course, an arsenal of comparisons with Tesla, Porsche and Mercedes, whom they point out as great rivals. The other great afternoon star was the Hypervision Hud, a Head-Up Display that crosses all the width of the windshield to project all kinds of information on it, segmenting this in areas and launching the most relevant for each of the passengers. A solution that BMW advanced two years ago but that has not yet put into practice. We had everything in a presentation of the car that spread for almost an hour. Of everything? Almost, almost everything. Because we had a great absent: autonomous driving. No traces of autonomous driving During the presentation of Xiaomi Su7the Chinese company emphasized the autonomous driving capabilities of its vehicles. Showed in a video How the car moved but also how the driver got off the vehicle before entering a parking lot and, autonomously, the car moved through an environment of several plants and parked in a really adjusted space. The commitment to this facet was such that The first time that officially He saw the vehicle in motion was doing it for himself. In recent years, automated driving has been one of the big game boards where the battle for the electric car in China develops. In fact, the company’s rivals have also emphasized it in recent years. Nio has based on its strategy In this area and Byd hit the table recently announcing that His “eye of God” will reach all carsregardless of its price. It was undoubtedly a dart to Tesla who was has worked hard to operate as a vehicle with autonomous driving capabilities. So why was it overlooked at the presentation of the Xiaomi Yu7? During the same, the little that was said about this type of functions is that the car will have A new chipset that will help you better visualize obstacles or pedestrians. And that’s it. The message in relation to security was on the other hand. The company focused on the good results of its chassis and The presentation of a new framework of the cabin, highlighting the materials with which he was made and the pressures he can bear. Why did they spend so much talking about something so technical? Lei Jun presenting the structure of the Xiaomi Yu7 Well, a few weeks ago Three people died aboard an Xiaomi Su7. And there is a suspicion that is floating in the air: they had active the most advanced functions of driving. A fatal accident is something that all brands that want to delve into this market have passed but the Chinese government has given an order: there is no talk of autonomous driving. The companions of Xiaomi world that from The fateful accident There is a generalized concern in the country. So much so that from the government of the country they have launched a new regulation and have given an important notice to the manufacturers, as it has been able to know Reuters. The new regulations will force the possible improvements in the ADAS of driving aid systems to pass an exam. Only after overcoming it can be updated in the cars via Ota. Previously this previous step was not necessary before putting cars up to date. The notice is hard: those who announce autonomous driving functions that cannot be fulfilled may be punished with a fine that will multiply between five and ten times the rate price of the publicized vehicle. This has caused Xiaomi no longer to talk about autonomous driving and assisted driving. Driving aids are a controversial theme in China but also in the West. In fact, in the United States organisms have stressed that terms such as Full self driving and Autopilot of Tesla They point to promises that at this time cannot fulfill. But the company is not the only one indicated, the Drive Pilot Mercedes has also been qualified as such. For now, there are hardly traditional manufacturers that can offer completely autonomous driving systems with open traffic. Level 2 and 2+ systems still require driver’s attention. Even Fordwhich offers a system to travel without hands and without feet also forces this. Mercedes does offer it But in very specific places, with good weather and up to 60 km/h.

In his second trailer, ‘Gta VI’ aims to exploit one of the great ideas so far absent in the franchise: love

May 6, 2025 by usatoday24

Although it sounds strange at this point, the Second trailer of ‘GTA VI‘points to something unexpected: Rockstar has matured. Or at least, he intends to continue with his purpose of making games more adults than those who gave him fame, an intention that started with ‘Red Dead Redemption 2‘. For the first time in the franchise, we see unthinkable maturity notes a few years ago. Hello to love. The plot core of ‘GTA VI’ will undoubtedly be the love story between Lucia and Jason, something unusual in a franchise full of promiscuity, prostitution, unsatisfactory marriages and lonely antiheroes and without time for love. This is what Rockstar tells us in the official synopsis: “Jason and Lucia always knew that the letters were against them, but when a blow that seemed easy to go wrong, they are trapped on the darkest side of the most sunny place in America, in the midst of a criminal conspiracy that extends throughout the state of Leonida, and forced to depend more than ever of each other if they want to go out alive.” Goodbye to the cartoon. If something puts on the table the new trailer of ‘GTA VI’ is A graphic realism never seen in the serieseven though we could be talking only about kinematics. And that realism has to bring hand in hand A change in the arguments that develop. Let us remember what the characters of ‘GTA III’, ‘Vice City’ or ‘Liberty City’ were: excessive, big heads, of schematic movements, almost cartoons. That has ended, and emotionally, the characters have to live up to it, in the same way, as we pointed out in their day, The demands of female representation have changed. A clear inspiration. Before we know more details about the argument (there are already rumors that Jason It could be an undercover policeman), the clearest reference of GTA VI are Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrowthe couple of robbers of banks who lived a bloody romance in the Chicago of the thirties. In this trailer we see Jason and wore a bank together, the first picking up the second when it comes out of jail, and sharing some beers, a sunset and some passionate scenes that perspire a certain unusual tenderness in the ‘GTA’ games. But a shadow looms on them. The thing may not end well: Rockstar games, especially the recent ones, usually deal with betrayal, one way or another. In ‘GTA v‘, where we were driving alternately to the three protagonists, in the end we were asked to choose between betraying our classmates or accepting a last mission with them. In ‘Red Dead Redemption’, betrayal when the protagonist seemed to have reached peace was inevitable. And in this ‘GTA VI’, if we alternately control the protagonists in the ‘GTA V’ style, the player could have to resort to a similar decision: loyalty to his partner or fulfill a mission. The model is ‘Red Dead Redemption 2’. It is the most sophisticated and deep game at the level of characters that has set rockstar to date. He left behind the grotesque composition of the protagonists of ‘GTA V’ and opted for emotion: in ‘RDR2’ we see Arthur Morgan learn with the player valuable lessons about betrayal, responsibility and – while he faces his own death, and as it is inevitable taking into account the title of the game – redemption. If Rockstar looks for a reference for maturity and adult characters, his own masterpiece is his model. A logical trajectory. From ‘Red Dead Redemption’, published fifteen years ago, the detour to more mature and adult arguments is indisputable. He was followed by the police key ‘La Noire’, the turn of ‘Max Payne’ in its third part towards personal hells and the second installment of ‘Red Dead Redemption’. Only ‘GTA V’ and, obviously, the verbenero ‘GTA online‘, to which you have to feed apart, they have left that line. But even recognizing that the fifth installment of the franchise is a look at more frivolous and caricaturescos times, posed unprecedented issues and approaches in the criminal saga. For now, noise and fury. For now, all this are conjectures, such as The brilliant idea that all we are seeing is the start of the game and Jason dies in the early hours of history. We cannot deduce from the second trailer what are going to be the key points of the argument, but the official information makes it clear that the relationship between Lucía and Jason (include or not deaths, betrayal or something else) will be openly romantic. And what is clear from the tone and visual style of the trailer is the potential of the game of giving an unprecedented impulse to the depth of the stories that are told in video games. And Rockstar is not known for letting this type of opportunities pass. Header | Rockstar In Xataka | The delay of ‘GTA VI’ goes far beyond a mere change in the calendar.
