Chapter 592: Intelligent Robots Also Have Disadvantages
After all, with Jiang Nan and other members of the film crew present, and in front of the camera, Wu Hao couldn't say some things too bluntly.
In fact, the original intention of the research and development of this intelligent area unmanned delivery system is to replace couriers and takeaway boys and reduce labor costs as much as possible.
It's just that no one dared to say such things publicly, otherwise they would be besieged.
Immediately, everyone followed Lin Jiaming into this small three-story building that made Jiang Nan and the others extremely curious. When they first walked in, it seemed that the small building was no different from ordinary buildings, but they soon discovered that there was something different inside.
The first is the first floor. On the left side of the first floor is a huge internal unmanned car parking lot, where many white unmanned vehicles are parked. These unmanned vehicles are neatly parked here. It can be seen that several unmanned vehicles on the side are charging, and the power indicator lights on the vehicles are flashing rhythmically.
On the right side of the first floor is an inspection and maintenance center, where some damaged unmanned vehicles will be repaired and 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 after this system is actually put into market operation in the future, the relevant maintenance work will also be carried out by intelligent robots. " Lin Jiaming introduced to Wu Hao and Jiang Nan.
Wu Hao shook his head with a smile and said: "Intelligent robots can't solve all problems, some things still have to be solved by humans.
How many intelligent regional unmanned delivery centers like this can exist in a city, and how much does it cost to have a professional equipment maintenance team.
Of course, there are benefits to automated maintenance as well. For example, it is more suitable for those areas with large land and sparsely populated areas to be used as a cargo transshipment center to reduce operating and maintenance costs.
Secondly, with the continuous increase of labor costs and the shortage of human resources, this kind of highly automated regional unmanned delivery center that does not rely on people is also a trend of future development. "
Lin Jiaming and Jiang Nan also nodded when they heard the words. Indeed, in terms of cost, the current fully automated maintenance cost is definitely much more expensive than manual labor. But in the long run, it is very promising. If it is not suitable now, it does not mean that it will not be suitable in the future, so what should be developed still needs to be developed.
Coming to the second floor, this is a huge control center. There is a huge big screen on one wall inside the control center. The large screen is divided into countless video windows, and each video window contains different pictures.
Seeing the curious expressions of Jiang Nan and others, Lin Jiaming said proudly: "This is the control center of our intelligent regional unmanned delivery system at this stage. You can see these video images on the big screen. The real-time monitoring screens of various drones and unmanned vehicles in operation, as well as community (community) delivery points.
Under normal circumstances, we do not perform any manual intervention. It's just that this system is still in the testing stage, and there are still some uncertainties and problems. Therefore, if necessary, we can use the background system here to use 5G technology to control the equipment or solve some problems remotely. "
"How is the safety of these devices, especially whether these drones and unmanned vehicles will cause harm to us ordinary people when they travel through the city?" Jiang Nan raised a question that she was most concerned about at this time. This issue is also the most concerned issue of many people.
After all, for this kind of unmanned equipment, everyone has not yet fully trusted them. Especially in recent years, the rise of unmanned driving has caused many accidents due to immature technology, which has also exacerbated the public's distrust of it.
Lin Jiaming nodded with a smile and said confidently: "Please don't worry about this, we have accumulated a wealth of technology and experience in this area. Moreover, our system and the technology of drones and unmanned vehicles come 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 to four kilometers, traveling to and from the delivery points of various communities, which can be said to be very busy.
But the operation of the entire drone group is very orderly, which is controlled by a strict system. "
While talking, Lin Jiaming typed 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 them are still those surveillance images, but they have all been changed to drone flight images.
The other half displayed an electronic map, and it could be seen that the map showed the area they were in. There are many red points on the map, and then there are some blue lines and red lines connecting these red points, and there are some green lines, but there are fewer, and these lines are woven into a network.
Lin Jiaming explained to Wu Hao and Jiang Nan: "This is an electronic map of our area. The five-pointed star in the middle of the map is our current location, which is where the unmanned delivery center in this intelligent area is located. Location.
And these red dots around are the courier collection and delivery points we set up in the commercial centers of various communities (districts).
As for the red and blue lines connecting these points, they are the flight routes of the drones connecting these delivery points. The blue lines show the goods delivered by the drones to these delivery points, while the red lines are the drones. The machine picks up the goods from the delivery point.
There are also green and black lines, where the green line indicates the flight path of an empty drone, while the black line indicates that the drone is malfunctioning and needs to be repaired.
Through this large screen, we can monitor the flight status of these drones in real time to ensure that relevant problems can be dealt with in the first time to ensure flight safety.
Secondly, although the space in the city is relatively complex, our drones have good obstacle avoidance flight capabilities. This aspect has also been strictly tested, so there will not be any major problems when performing flight missions in urban airspace.
Finally, when we plan the flight routes of these drones and select the locations of these delivery points, we have made careful choices, trying to avoid areas with a lot of people, and choose remote and open areas.
The same is true for the route planning of drones, avoiding crowds as much as possible, so it will not have much impact on the work and life of ordinary citizens, let alone pose a threat. "
