Interim Report 2021

Sunny Optical Technology (Group) Company Limited • INTERIM REPORT 2021 06 Management Discussion and Analysis 管理層討論與分析 隨著自動駕駛的逐步發展，各國政府進一步推 進了與自動駕駛相關的法律法規及監管。二零 二一年一月，美國交通運輸部發佈了《自動駕 駛汽車綜合計劃》，該計劃進一步明確了美國 自動駕駛汽車的發展方向。二零二一年五月， 德國聯邦委員會通過了《自動駕駛法案》的立 法，該法案允許第四等級自動駕駛汽車於二零 二二年開始在德國的公共道路和指定區域內行 駛。而在中國，中國公安部於二零二一年三月 發佈了《道路交通安全法（修訂建議稿）》，明確 了具有自動駕駛功能的汽車進行道路測試和通 行的相關要求以及違法和事故責任分擔規定， 這是中國第一次在基礎法律層面對自動駕駛汽 車提出的具體立法，具有重要里程碑意義。法 律法規的不斷完善給車載領域的光學應用帶來 持續增長動力。 回顧二零二一年上半年，隨著 COVID-19 對光 學儀器市場的影響逐漸消減，光學儀器市場規 模呈現快速復甦趨勢，整體行業朝著高性能、 高精度、高靈敏、高可靠性、智能化、自動化 等方向發展。同時，隨著下游科研、醫療、工 業生產等應用領域需求增加，光學儀器行業整 體發展持續向好。 With the gradual development of autonomous driving, governments of various countries have further promoted the introduction of laws, regulations and regulatory policies related to autonomous driving. In January 2021, the Department of Transportation of the U.S. released the “Comprehensive Plan for Automated Vehicles” which further clarifies the direction of development of autonomous cars in the U.S.. In May 2021, the German Bundestag has adopted a legislation of the “Act on Automated Driving” that will allow level 4 of autonomous driving vehicles to be used on public roads and in defined areas in Germany by 2022. In China, the Ministry of Public Security of the PRC released the “Draft Proposed Amendments of the Road Traffic Safety Law”, which clarifies the requirements related to road testing of, and access by, vehicles equipped with automated driving functions, as well as regulating how liability for traffic violations and accidents will be allocated in March 2021. This marks the first time China has proposed specific legislation for autonomous cars at the level of the basic law. This is a significant milestone. The continuous improvement of laws and regulations will bring constant growth driving forces for the application of optical-related products in the vehicle field. Looking back to the first half of 2021, as the impact of the COVID-19 on the optical instrument market gradually faded away, the optical instrument market experienced a rapid recovery trend and the entire industry developed toward the direction of high performance, high precision, high sensitivity, high reliability, intelligence and automation. Meanwhile, coupled with the increased demand in the scientific research, medical, industrial production and other application fields in the downstream, the overall development of the optical instrument industry achieved sustained sound growth.
