In quot; Internet car quot; concept when it proposed a few years ago, we have witnessed an increasing number of large-sized car began to equip screen, not even one, with the second block, third block, even the N-th block. That time, there are countless people ask a question, we really need to have the number of screens on the car? And there is no answer, it is clear that more and more manufacturers began to calm down and think, quot; right ah, how much we need to block quot ;.
direction of development of the world when the car is quot; new four modernizations quot; after three words define the concept of intelligent car again repeatedly mentioned, quot; What is the real smart car? quot; various car companies and technology companies have different technical route, but obviously, we did not able to see the accurate answer. Just know, can achieve interact with the network, perform certain voice commands, this is the prototype of a smart car, but still far from a real smart.
AI = + artificial consciousness / self / mind
inserted a fun thing, the future of space left to everyone’s imagination, but never brutal growth divergence sky success is a matter of power but rather a harbinger of death. When 5G commercial news came out, many people were talking about the future 5G, and then he was in favor of some means become profitable, my engineer friend 5G unmoved until 5G Earlier this year, the official standard floor, everything began to accelerate development effort.
industry needs rules and standards to regulate Forced, or is also already clear phases, led by the advanced person.
artificial intelligence, was talked numerous times about the artificial intelligence of the car, after the industry has been in the ground-level talk is quot; learning ability quot; quot; perception quot; quot; ability to execute quot; , but few people mentioned tougher quot; computing capabilities quot ;.
The reason is not misty, Chinese automotive semiconductor industry is not strong, is still not a certain position in the market of professional automotive semiconductor manufacturers, from the beginning of 2018, many companies began to mention car rules-on-chip, but behind big brother is always Intel, NXP, MediaTek them.
Similarly, today’s Huawei is also more and more people are familiar with, especially in the 40 days before the conference, Yu Chengdong phrase quot; Huawei behind in a very difficult time not only the semiconductor quot ;, dispute, the operating system battle, it is the framework of the dispute, counted power struggle, processor optimization and in-depth collaboration dispute.
intelligent control requires quot; op & the Internet quot ;, this view is a strategic investment Geely Holding Group, to operate independently of intelligent vehicle technology companies – one hundred million coffee Technology CEO Chen Ziyu, mentioned in a variety of scenarios too many times.
Today, the wheels rolling forward, billion-coffee began to pass into the next level.
so that operation became the dominant = Apple, Huawei
October 20, billion-coffee Technologies (ECARX) and Arm China jointly funded the establishment of core engine technology officially released in Wuhan, the strategy began to chip behind the force will be established to start its operation advantages.
so-called smart-chip automotive car rules, even in the global market, compared to smart phone technology there are obvious difference on behalf of (5 – 7 years), on the one hand it is the best car on-chip gauge small, the other is the immaturity of the industry, most companies choose to force one or two areas, but one hundred million coffee on otherwise.
According to its strategy, billion-Arm coffee Technologies and China jointly funded the establishment of the core engine technology will bring are: E Series digital level gauge car cockpit chip, AD series driver assistance processor, V series full-stack AI voice chip, M series automotive microcontrollers, four levels correspond better car audio-visual experience, even smart driving autopilot capabilities, voice dialogue scene , learning and logical room for improvement and other performance optimization level.
Many companies have said, quot; software-defined intelligent XXquot ;, this can be XX cars, mobile phones, manufacturing and so on, but the premise is considered force the industry at the same level, when Apple, Huawei such enterprises to break the bottleneck of traditional operator force,All rules will be re foregone conclusion.
based on currently available information, is expected to 2024, billion-coffee through the AD series chips will be the first application in Geely, collar grams, etc. on models using high frequency ARM core processor, the video image to achieve detection, identification, classification, comprising PCIE4.0 operator force scalability, the mating interface AI force calculation unit GPU, FPGA, NPU like. Coffee on the body of the speed
million is the direction recognized
= core chip product innovation engine technology, on-board software, automotive systems, intelligent vehicle experience = one hundred million coffee Technologies, both fusion is a smart cockpit + driving overall to get through.
While each company’s different technical route, but apparently the first time the industry will be given relevant feedback and preliminary answers. On day 6 after the core engine technology release, October 26, billion-coffee Technologies (ECARX) officially announced the completion A round of financing, financing amount of 1.3 billion yuan, investment valuation after breaking 10 billion yuan. Round lead investor of Baidu, Heiner Asia venture capital (SIG) with the investment and financing funds will be used in automotive chip product innovation, investment in high-precision maps, autopilot technology research and development, as well as the process of internationalization of enterprises.
is expected by the end of 2020, billion-coffee Technologies will be officially set up R & D centers in Europe, US and European markets for the provision of technical and service platform capabilities.
Written in the last:
2016, billion-coffee Technologies to develop joint + self-defined breakout path of on-board chip, to promote research and development of on-board chip, now E01 chips have been used in Geely models on, and bring advantage count forces;
in December 2019, billion-coffee Technologies the world’s first full-stack AI voice chip silicon success, expected in 2020 will reach mass production, and the car achieve certification car rules chip SOP;
at present, billion-coffee Technologies is Geely depth of custom-developed GKUI has more than 2.2 million 4G online users, and is expected to subscribers more than 1 million each year continues to grow;
[ 123] currently, billion-coffee Technologies completed its Geely automobile Geely automobile Group, leading grams vehicles, Proton cars 40 vehicle models mentionedUnion for intelligent network services.
above all, is today the completion of its advance, verifiable behind innovation + implementation capacity of enterprises, and with the completion of the A round of financing + + core engine technology to further the creation of global strategy expand, we go back to the beginning of the body of a foregone conclusion by topic.
When the N-series BMW when an industry divergent rapid growth, the need for the relevant rules of implementation-defined, or there is also excellent enterprise with advanced technology pulled the industry standard, so Honda Vtec, so, Apple and Huawei examples so. In front of one hundred million coffee Technologies, the core engine technology, also expected the case.
