As a well-known top university in the country, Yanda University not only has first-class teachers, but also has perfect teaching equipment and experimental equipment.
In particular, the equipment that needs to be used for professor-level research can be specially approved.
For example, now Yanda attaches great importance to artificial intelligence research and development - the experimental configuration in this area will be given priority.
Professor Yan took Li Qingzhou and others to a room equipped with a car driving simulator.
The room is not small, but there are only two facilities.
One is fixed on the ground, and three display screens are erected in front of it to simulate the real scene.
One is installed on a small track with common road conditions such as obstacles or slopes in front.
Moreover, through computer control, the machinery installed between the car driving simulator and the track will make the driving performance of the car when it encounters mud, bumps, etc.…
Professor Yan turned on the main switch for controlling the experimental equipment and said, "How about, doesn't the car driving simulator here seem to be bigger and newer than B?"
Qiao Huanming walked in and nodded: "Indeed, the equipment of the B major has broken down several times, and there is still a lot of problems after one equipment is repaired."
In fact, it should be replaced with new equipment, but unfortunately the funds are not enough.
Except for Li Qingzhou, Qiao Huanming and others.
All the students in the laboratory also followed - they wanted to see what kind of research results Li Qingzhou could produce.
Professor Yan said: "Automotive AI is not the main area of focus in my lab."
"Since Qingzhou left Yanda, the equipment here has rarely been used... However, routine inspections are often performed, and a normal simulation demonstration is possible."
The computer connecting the two car driving simulators was starting up, and the room was humming with the characteristic slight hum of machines.
Professor Yan looked at the former students and said, "Qingzhou, why don't you talk about your research results now?"
Li Qingzhou: "Teacher, you also know that the current research direction of automotive AI mainly lies in the voice control system - sending commands to the car through voice recognition."
Professor Yan nodded.
Li Qingzhou's voice was flat, and he continued unhurriedly: "Our country's research on this aspect is in the initial stage."
"But country M has been able to introduce functions such as smart touch screen and transfer phone into the car driving system..."
"It definitely means a big leap - from traditional button operation to a full touchscreen mode in the car's center console."
"While the overall sense of technology and grades have improved, the safety factor has also increased."
"This is entirely because in the full touch screen mode, the center console of the car can also connect to the mobile phone and access the phone, and the whole process only requires one touch."
"According to our country's survey, the probability of an accident while driving is much higher than that of ordinary driving, speeding, rear-end collision, etc."
Zhou Nan couldn't help but nodded and said, "In the research of automotive artificial intelligence, convenience, fashion, and speed are one aspect."
"But the most important thing is that the existence of intelligent systems can ensure the safety of drivers and reduce the probability of accidents."
The others also expressed their approval.
Li Qingzhou said: "At present, the domestic market is still completely unable to independently produce a full-touch screen center control panel for automobiles, and it is necessary to import parts and configurations."
"This also makes cars with a full touchscreen center control panel expensive and unpopular."
The research result of voice control brought by Qiao Huanming is to add voice to start the car, lock the car, import the map, plan the route program, and broadcast the whole process on the basis of the full touch screen center control panel.
The most important thing is - the addition of a collision avoidance warning system in the center control panel.
Never underestimate this early warning system.
Because this kind of system already has a high degree of intelligent selectivity.
- Not only complex algorithms, program chips, environmental imaging, etc. are required to achieve early warning and collision avoidance.
It is also necessary to judge the degree of injury among thousands of possibilities of encountering a car accident, so as to provide timely avoidance methods for drivers.
However, these functions are based on the basis that can be developed, and now they are only theoretical and mature.
This is also the reason why Qiao Huanming wants to pull investment.
- No money, unable to develop and manufacture.
He prepared materials and related video AI simulation production, but Jiang Daikun blasted him out before he finished explaining the warning and collision avoidance...
Before the future of Yanda.
Qiao Huanming impresses Li Qingzhou on how to explain these researches, and impresses Li Qingzhou through the presentation of the simulated voice-controlled car in the video, and then pulls in the investment.
But after coming to Yanda... He changed from a lecturer to a live audience.
Someone said: "After talking for so long, what are the results of your research?"
Li Qingzhou: "Voice control, remote start of the car, AI scanning."
The rest looked at each other.
Li Qingzhou said: "You can experience it yourself."
He turned the wheelchair to the console where the computer was placed, and motioned Fang Xiyan to put the laptop he had been holding on a clean surface and open it.
at the same time.
Li Qingzhou took out a simple and crudely made bracelet in his pocket, and it seemed that many parts were bare and exposed electronic parts.
About the width of a finger.
- Limited time, coupled with technical limitations, the current bracelet cannot achieve a detailed and perfect appearance for the time being.
However, it does not affect usage.
Li Qingzhou said: "I need to operate the computer I brought..."
The main control computer connects the two car driving simulators through two cables to accurately grasp, record, and analyze data.
All that needs to be done now is to connect the two control cables to Li Qingzhou's computer.
Professor Yan asked two students to come over to help.
Seeing this, Qiao Huanming couldn't help but be a little puzzled: "Mr. Li, do you want to show the effect of the concept presentation on the car driving simulator?"
How can this be done? !
Li Qingzhou shook his head, only shaking his bracelet and said, "Who is coming?"
But don't wait for others to speak.
He glanced over and pointed to the student who said that he was not welcome to come to Yanda University: "Just you, I remember your name is Zheng Yan."
Zheng Yan took a sigh of relief and stepped forward: "...What should I do?"
Li Qingzhou said: "Put on the bracelet, enter your fingerprints, and say a few words to the bracelet... Just stand here, don't go to the car driving simulator."
Saying that, he quickly operated the laptop with both hands.
Fang Xiyan took out a fingerprint machine connected to the computer: "Put your finger on it and press it three times in a row."
Zheng Yan finished according to Li Qingzhou and Fang Xiyan's request, and said, "Okay."
After operating the computer, Li Qingzhou leaned on the wheelchair and said, "After all, a car driving simulator can't be compared with a real car."
"My research results need to be fully reflected in a real car."
"So, for a while there may be some displays that are not comprehensive."
"I will explain it in detail now, and you will test it in detail when the time comes."
He paused and said: "If a car has an intelligent AI recognition control system, it not only needs the presence of the steering wheel and the center console."
"There is also a need for mutual cooperation between other configurations of the car."
"As just said - voice control is to improve the safety performance of the car and reduce the probability of accidents."
"My research results are comprehensive voice control and precise manipulation of the entire body, including control of the braking system, anti-lock braking system, acceleration anti-skid system, etc."
"There are also zero maintenance reminders, tire pressure monitoring... It's really a conversation between people and cars."
"For example, in an emergency."
"AI takes over steering, braking, etc. in the event of a possible crash...to quickly evade, stop driving, etc."
"Or when a person's hands and feet are trapped and the door is locked after a car accident, you can use voice commands to eject the seat belt, shatter the car glass, open the locked door, etc. to buy time and facilitate outside rescues."
"Starting the car remotely is through the connection between the car and the bracelet, so that the car can be started and warmed up in advance when staying at home, or 100 meters away."
"And the real-time monitoring gives simple commands - lock the doors, flash the lights, sound the horn..."
"AI scanning is to quickly detect abnormal conditions such as the driver's heart rhythm, facial expression, eye movement, etc. through the cooperation of the bracelet and the car camera."
"Based on this detection, it can be determined whether the driver is driving under the influence of alcohol or fatigue."
"Once the intelligent AI determines and the driver does not respond, the AI system will take over the car, slow down, and gradually park in a safe place."
"At present, my research results are only these for the time being."
After Li Qingzhou finished speaking, there was silence in the room.
After a long while, someone murmured: "This... how is this possible..."
If we say that the research results brought by Qiao Huanming are to add one step to the existing automotive technology stage, step by step, and achieve a big leap.
Li Qingzhou's research result is to jump directly to the second or third stage...
This is no longer a leap.
It's to the extent that it's simply impossible today - the algorithm alone for this programming makes it hard to find clues.
But now Li Qingzhou says... he's done? !
"Impossible... Is it a concept simulation? Is it possible or... "
Some people can't help but glance at the smart bracelet on Zheng Yu's wrist and the two car driving simulators connected to the laptop...
- Is it a real-life manipulation test? !
Li Qingzhou stretched out his hand: "please, now you can start the car remotely..."
…
The experiment was carried out from the morning to the afternoon, during which the door was locked and no one came out.
During lunch, a student from another department came to the laboratory building to look for a friend who was waiting for the left and right and disappeared.
Knocked on the door for a long time and called again.
His friend finally opened the door through a small gap and whispered through the crack: "What are you doing..."
"It's noon time, let's go and cook."
The student wondered, "Aren't you the most active at this point?!"
Who knows, his friend replied neatly - "If you have something to do, don't go."
The voice hadn't disappeared, and with a snap, the door was instantly closed.
The student scratched his head with a puzzled expression.
Why does he feel that his friend looks in a trance, as if his spirit has been greatly impacted...
Probably got it wrong
