2019, car prices have talked about the autopilot year, but the current production car equipped with most models can only L2 level driver assistance systems, from the expected autopilot scene with cloud of mud. For many people, the autopilot is actually very far a technology, because in practical applications, the autopilot by the constraints of too many areas of a particular technology to any one area into a bottleneck, are likely to lead to the development of autopilot fall bottleneck.
However, in this outbreak, there is no shortage in many areas “autopilot” technology figure appeared. Perhaps in the hallway of the hospital, perhaps in the streets and various scenes cell, perhaps in a more express delivery site. These figures are either undertake the important task of delivering supplies or express delivery to residents, either silently disinfection on the streets. It can be said, it is the emergence of these figures, so that our “zero-touch advocate” better able to implement.
Unmanned vehicles stream: Express, room cinch
unmanned vehicles stream, as the name implies It is unmanned, and the vehicle can transport materials. But limited by current technology, aspects of load, route planning and speed of these vehicles have limitations. For example, in Wuhan epidemic by Jingdong launch of unmanned logistics vehicles is responsible for delivery of medical supplies between hospitals, such as masks and protective clothing, daily one-volume transport between 10 and 20 alone. Meanwhile, in rural areas of Hebei, Shanxi and Jiangsu, as well as some drones launched Jingdong logistics and distribution work.
In addition to the goods and courier, also appeared in Wuhan Post “Han Ma” no delivery trucks, it is well take delivery of tasks within the units directly under the municipal government and Bristol area. It is reported that this type of car one day to deliver nearly a hundred e-mail, the efficiency is higher than the hand delivery. Mail and couriers only need to press the classification in the car, vehicle delivery will be completed along the established route.
At the same time, in other urban areas, there have been similar technology. For example, in Shandong, there have been unmanned logistics vehicles, is responsible for fruits and vegetables transported between cells and supermarkets, capacity up to 1500 kg / per trip. In Guangdong, Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, Hubei and Zhejiang provinces and cities of the hospital or isolation point, it is no shortage of drug delivery, delivery and recovery of dispensing robots figure medical waste.
No special vehicles: cleaning, disinfection easily
If the benefit is to avoid the logistics and transport vehicles contact between the people, then this type of unmanned vehicles mentioned below on the mainly used in public utilities. During the epidemic in the Futian District, Shenzhen, a black and gray, with green reflective paint unmanned sanitation sweeper formal “job.” It is reported that the car enough to replace outdoor sanitation workers cleaning work to achieve sweeping, watering and garbage collection and so on.
while in Shanghai Zhangjiang artificial island, Baidu Apollo ecological partners will also Neolithic autopilot disinfection of vehicles were practical application. Such automatic driving Disinfection disinfectant 160L may be loaded, at a speed rate of h 5km / disinfecting implement self-propelled spray, spray coverage of 3-5 meters. At present, Shanghai, Shandong, Jiangxi, Wenzhou, Wuhan and Guangzhou and other places are similar to the autopilot disinfection of vehicles in use.
In addition, in some of the large public transportation venues line the city’s railway stations, airports, etc., have to bear the temperature measurement, broadcasting and remote visual command of the automatic driving the car appeared. This type of car to assume the function of relatively simple, there had similar application cases, but in this epidemic, they are undoubtedly more useful.
under autopilot will change the pace of the epidemic or
Prior to the outbreak, we always think that the autopilot should serve the privateCar field. But in the outbreak, some of the autopilot simplistic application appeared in a number of areas, but from a practical point of view, this type of autonomous driving car tasks are completed quite beautiful, I believe that the development of the autopilot in 2020 or a major breakthrough will occur.
At the moment, in a closed place, and even complete L3 L4 levels of automated driving are not sleep. It is also because of this, in the case of all homes, which are capable of automatically driving the car come from real places in a closed trial in place, take on tasks in various fields. Seen in the route planning and reasonable, good road environment, the actual scope of application of the autopilot may be more extensive than we thought.
present in some cities such as Guangzhou, there have been cases of driverless taxi operations, although these taxis still in the demonstration stage, but considering the taxi usage scenarios more complex, and therefore is not widespread popularity. But in some internal community, within the company or organization units, similar delivery, transportation, cleaning autopilot if the car can achieve a wide range of popular it? From the current point of view, this possibility does not really small.
SARS in 2003 made people realize the convenience of the office electricity supplier, you can stay at home “buy out” the world was; and after that in 2020 the new coronavirus, was there any industry You will be rapid development? I am not sure the autopilot will take flourish, after all, compared to the electricity supplier this business model, the autopilot technology is a complicated systematic project, involving all aspects to more. But I believe that after this incident, the autopilot technology will usher in a new development direction and application direction.
