A 5G laboratory three kilometers away from a test car was recently able to release the parking brake, step on the gas pedal and put the car into drive in Hubei province in centralChina.
Last September, China Mobile's Hubei branch and Dongfeng Motor Group signed an agreement to establish a 5G-based laboratory, where the above remote test drive was carried out.
The 5G network, featuring a minimal delay, will bring considerable changes to the daily lives of citizens as well as to the country's development.
Experts estimate that by 2025, there will be 1.4 billion 5G users around the globe, with most of them fromChina.
5G is a new-generation mobile communication technology, enabling remote driving and smart home options, providing people a digital and smart life with high-definition videos, AR, VR, the Internet of Things and other technologies.
