Chapter 592: Intelligent Robots Also Have Drawbacks
After all, Jiang Nan and the other members of the film crew were there, and they were still in front of the camera, and there were some things that Wu Hao couldn't say too bluntly.
In fact, the original intention of the research and development of this intelligent regional unmanned delivery system is to replace couriers and takeaway brothers, and reduce labor costs as much as possible.
It's just that no one dares to say such things publicly, otherwise they will inevitably be besieged.
Immediately, everyone followed Lin Jiaming into this three-story small building that made Jiang Nan and them extremely curious, and it seemed that the small building was no different from the ordinary building when they first walked in, but they soon found that there was a hole in it.
The first is the first floor, and on the left side of the first floor is a huge internal unmanned car parking lot, in which numerous white unmanned vehicles are parked. These unmanned vehicles are neatly parked here, and it can be seen that several unmanned vehicles on the side are charging, and the power indicator lights on the cars are flashing rhythmically.
On the right side of the first floor, there is an overhaul and maintenance center, where some damaged unmanned vehicles will be repaired and then put into operation again.
"Because our intelligent regional unmanned delivery system is still in the testing stage, our technicians are responsible for the maintenance of these unmanned vehicles and drones in such an intelligent regional unmanned delivery center.
We hope that in the future, when this system is really put into market operation, the relevant maintenance work will also be taken care of by intelligent robots. Lin Jiaming said to Wu Hao and Jiang Nan.
Wu Hao shook his head with a smile when he heard this: "Intelligent robots can't solve all problems, and there are some things that must be solved by people."
How many intelligent regional unmanned delivery centers like this can there be in a city, and how much can it cost to maintain a professional equipment maintenance team.
Of course, there are benefits to automated maintenance. For example, it is more suitable for those large and sparsely populated areas to be used as a cargo transfer center to reduce operation and maintenance costs.
Secondly, with the increasing labor cost and the shortage of human resources, this highly automated unmanned delivery center that does not rely on people is also a trend for future development. ”
Lin Jiaming and Jiang Nan also nodded when they heard this, indeed, in terms of cost, the cost of this fully automated maintenance at this stage must be much more expensive than manual work. But in the long run, it is very promising. Not being suitable now does not mean that it is not suitable in the future, so what should be developed must be developed.
Coming to the second floor, it's a huge control center. Inside the control center there is a huge large screen on one of the walls. The large screen is divided into countless video windows, and each video window has a different picture.
Seeing the curious looks of Jiang Nan and others, Lin Jiaming said proudly: "This is the control center of our intelligent regional unmanned delivery system at this stage, and you can see that these video images on the large screen are the real-time monitoring images of various unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that are currently in operation, as well as community (community) delivery points."
Under normal circumstances, we do not do any human intervention. It's just that the system is still in the testing stage, and there are still some uncertainties and problems. Therefore, if necessary, we can use 5G technology to control the equipment through the back-end system here, or solve some problems remotely. ”
"How safe are these devices, especially these drones and unmanned vehicles traveling through the city, will they cause harm to us ordinary people." Jiang Nan threw out a question that she was most concerned about at this time, and I am afraid that this issue is also the most concerned issue for many people.
After all, there is not enough trust in such unmanned equipment. Especially in recent years, the rise of unmanned driving, because of the immaturity of technology, has led to many accidents, which has also exacerbated the public's distrust of it.
Lin Jiaming smiled and nodded confidently: "Please rest assured in this regard, we have accumulated rich technology and experience in this area." Moreover, the technology of our system and unmanned aerial vehicles comes from other projects, which can be said to be very mature. Coupled with our targeted improvement and optimization, the security of this system has been greatly improved.
As you can see on the big screen, now we have hundreds of drones flying within a radius of three or four kilometers, and we can say that we are very busy with the drop-off points in various communities.
But the operation of the entire drone swarm is very orderly, which is controlled by a strict system. ”
Saying that, Lin Jiaming knocked a few times on the computer, only to see that the content on the big screen on the wall was divided into two halves. Half of it is still the surveillance footage, but it has all been changed to drone flight footage.
The other half showed an electronic map, which showed the area they were in. There are a lot of red dots on the map, and then there are some blue lines and red lines that connect these red dots, and there are also some green lines, but there are fewer of them, and these lines together form a web.
Lin Jiaming explained to Wu Hao and Jiang Nan: "This is an electronic map of our area, and the location of the five-pointed star in the middle of the map is where we are currently located, that is, the location of the unmanned drop center in this intelligent region."
The surrounding red dots are the express delivery points we set up in the commercial centers of various communities (communities).
The red and blue lines connecting these points are the flight paths of the drones between these drop points, where the blue lines show the cargo dropped by the drones to these drop points, and the red lines are the goods that the drones collect from the drop points.
There are also green and black lines, where the green line indicates the flight trajectory of the unmanned drone, while the black line indicates that the drone has malfunctioned and needs to be repaired.
Through this large screen, we can monitor the flight status of these drones in real time to ensure that we can deal with related problems in the first time and ensure flight safety.
Secondly, although the space in the city is more complicated, our drones have good obstacle avoidance flight capabilities. This aspect is also rigorously tested, so there are no major problems when flying in urban airspace.
Finally, we have carefully selected the flight routes of these drones and the location of these drop-off points, trying to avoid areas with a lot of people and choose remote and empty areas.
The route planning of drones is the same, avoiding crowds as much as possible, so it will not have much impact on the work and life of ordinary citizens, let alone threaten. ”
