“In civilian self-driving technology, our self-driving system only needs to avoid obstacles on the road that may affect our peers. As for military self-driving technology, what we have to face is that there is no road at all and there are obstacles everywhere.
environment of.
Therefore, we need to set up automatic driving logic for this special extreme environment so that the system can find a passable road in these complex environments.
To be precise, the autonomous driving system will have an accurate understanding of the overall performance of its own vehicle, especially its passing capabilities, and then calculate what kind of road environment the vehicle can pass. Then the autonomous driving system will give priority to
Choose routes that are less difficult to pass.
What kind of road conditions can be passed and what kinds of road conditions cannot be passed need to be judged by the automatic driving system.
And because of the special nature of military vehicles, it is naturally impossible to maintain a speed of 10 to 20 kilometers per hour like our lunar rover. Generally, complex environments like this also require rapid passage.
If you want intelligent unmanned vehicles to increase their driving speed, the autonomous driving system is the key. It must quickly and accurately identify road information, and then plan a reasonable route. The entire response must be rapid and accurate, otherwise it will not be able to keep up with the vehicle's driving speed.
For these complex environments, the amount of data that the autonomous driving system needs to calculate is huge, and the requirements for the entire system and even the hardware are also very high. In addition, because of the particularity of military equipment, all hardware and software must be safe.
Reliability is ranked first in equipment performance.
So regardless of whether it is just a conversion from civilian use to military use, the technical difficulty is dozens or hundreds of times higher."
Speaking of this, Zhou Yonghui paused, and then said with a smile: "In addition to these basic performances, military autonomous driving technology must also master a special driving skill.
This is military driving skills. It is different from conventional driving skills and has many requirements that are very close to actual combat. I don’t want to introduce other aspects in detail. Just give a simple example, such as the technology of how a vehicle moves when encountering enemy fire.
, which is absolutely impossible to have on civilian vehicles.
In a military autonomous driving system, this function must be provided, and some extreme driving skills may even be required to prepare for emergencies."
“As for us, we have always hoped to break through the technical bottleneck in this area and develop military-grade autonomous driving technology.
To this end, we have sent multiple technical research teams to go deep into various military units, such as vehicle transport units dedicated to logistics support, regular commuting units, and quick reaction units responsible for combat readiness duties, etc.
We train with the soldiers of these troops, visit and investigate, collect a large amount of relevant data, use it as a template, and then conduct training, so that our autonomous driving system can learn and master these driving skills.
This aspect is also thanks to the support of relevant military leaders. It is with their help that in the past two years, we have collected a large amount of data information from the sensors on these vehicles, which is very important for the development of our military-grade autonomous driving technology.
It plays a vital role.”
Having said this, Zhou Yonghui immediately gestured to the staff on the side. As the staff activated the switch, the door on the side of the crowd slowly slid open.
I saw a warrior vehicle with desert paint parked inside. And it seemed to be the latest generation.
Is this the Meng Five? Wu Hao looked at this desert-painted Warrior military vehicle and asked involuntarily.
Zhou Yonghui smiled and shook his head: "No, it is very different from the Mengwu that has been delivered in small quantities. These are the latest vehicles we transferred from the parking lot with the coordination and help of the military and the Science and Technology Commission.
This model military vehicle can be regarded as the seventh generation product of the entire Warrior family."
"Mengqi?"
After hearing Zhou Yonghui's introduction, Wu Hao and the more knowledgeable people couldn't help but look at the military vehicle in front of them.
The appearance of this Meng 7 is not much different from that of the Meng 5. It follows the consistent design style of the Mengshi family, which should be said to have been inherited from the Meng 3.
The vehicle is very tall, taller than ordinary vehicles. The whole vehicle looks very solid and heavy, and it looks like a combat vehicle at first glance.
In addition, everyone also saw many different places from this car, and they all started to communicate with each other.
"What is the difference between this Mengqi and the Mengqi on the market?" This time the question was from Zhang Jun. He is a car enthusiast, so he is naturally very interested in new cars.
Zhou Yonghui on the side introduced with a smile: "The biggest difference should be the power system. Compared with the previous six generations of products, the seventh-generation Warrior has changed the entire power system, from the previous high-horsepower diesel engine to
Motor system package.
The entire drive part is a powerful drive system composed of domestic high-power permanent magnet synchronous and induction asynchronous motors. Its power is higher than the previous high-horsepower diesel engine.
These two high-horsepower motors can drive this huge land beast, which has an empty load of four tons and a full load of nearly six tons, to accelerate from 100 kilometers to 100 kilometers in about four seconds, which can be said to be very terrifying.
In order to provide sufficient power energy for this land beast, this vehicle also uses our latest generation of new lithium battery power packs. Our industrial-grade solid-state battery power packs may be used in truck models in the future.
After using our new lithium battery power pack, the car's cruising range on complex road conditions has reached an astonishing 600 kilometers, and its cruising range on highways with better road conditions has reached nearly 900 kilometers.
It can be said that this kind of cruising range has satisfied the daily patrol and combat use of the troops.
In addition, this military vehicle is also equipped with our most advanced wireless remote charging technology and high-voltage DC fast charging technology. Using wireless remote super charging technology, we can charge the entire vehicle’s battery within fifteen minutes.
Fully charged. Using our high-voltage DC fast charging technology, we can control the entire charging time to about five to seven minutes.
This charging time is basically the same as the refueling time of the vehicle, which can be said to have met the daily patrol and combat needs of the troops.
In addition to power endurance performance, a new generation of light armor is also used and installed on the Meng 7, which greatly enhances its overall protective performance.
If necessary, it can also be equipped with a vehicle-mounted laser or a drone active defense system, thereby greatly enhancing its own protection capabilities and improving its battlefield survival rate."
