Don't give me black technology

Chapter 289 Unmanned Driving System
The Mars smart VR glasses were released in the island country as scheduled. Just like the situation encountered in China, they were sold out as soon as they were released.

It wasn't until this time that the electronic product and game operators in the island country realized that their months of efforts to discredit Deep Space Technology hadn't worked.

For users, good products and practicality come first.

Because Mars Smart Technology Co., Ltd. sells a limited number of products in the island country, the products of Mars Smart Technology have become representatives of high quality here, and young people in the island country are showing off their related products on the Internet.

On the other hand, the once most popular Apple smartphones, Suoni PS5, Nintendo SWTICH, etc. have all become past tense.

Some Japanese media even declared: "The console game era of Suo Ni and Nintendo has passed, and the future will be the era of VR games!"

Of course, it is telling the truth, and Meng Xiaobai also thinks so.

"Both Suo Ni and Nintendo advertise investment in the VR field?" Meng Xiaobai was not surprised when he saw the news.These big companies are definitely not reconciled to this decline, and want to give it a go.It's a pity that their opponent is Deep Space Technology, and this wish may come true.

"It's not just them, large electronic product groups and game developers at home and abroad have announced that they will invest in and develop VR equipment and VR fields." Deng Yunhui, Meng Xiaobai's new assistant, reported.

Deng Yun is an outstanding graduate recruited by the school. She was once a well-known talented woman in economics and finance at Qinghua University, and her parents are also elites in the financial field.When she was about to graduate, she chose the school recruitment of Deep Space Technology, and defeated all competitors to become Meng Xiaobai's assistant.

Deng Yun is 23 this year, and her appearance is not bad. In addition, she has a good family background and a high degree of education.She thought she was already a leader among her peers, but after meeting the founder of Deep Space Technology, she realized that she was still too naive.

This Mr. Meng looks not much older than himself, but he has already made such great achievements in the field of information technology and business. How did he do it?
Meng Xiaobai is no longer interested in competition in the VR field. For him, VR games are just a transitional product. His ultimate goal is to develop brain-computer interfaces and virtual worlds.

"What about last month's report?"

"Here." Deng Yun put a pile of thick documents on the desk, and looked curiously at the president in front of her.

"There are so many documents, you can't read them all in one day, can you?" Deng Yun thought to herself, "And every subsidiary company and every project of the research institute has to be read, isn't Mr. Meng afraid of exhausting himself to death?"

"Mr. Meng, shall I go to work first?" Deng Yun asked cautiously.

"No, wait another 10 minutes." Meng Xiaobai pointed to the sofa in the office.

"Okay." Deng Yun secretly observed Meng Xiaobai's work while sitting.

Meng Xiaobai picked up the document, quickly scanned it, and then gave a reply on it.Because the speed was too fast, Deng Yun even suspected that he didn't even read it, just like when the teacher corrected the composition when he was a child, he just wrote the word "read".

In less than 10 minutes, Meng Xiaobai had already processed all the documents.

"Send it back." Meng Xiaobai said to her, "Also, next time, all Class A documents will be sent to me electronically, which would be a waste of time. Also, arrange a ride, I will go to Bluestar Automobile's unmanned driving system research base .”

"Okay." Deng Yun wrote down one by one, and when she arrived at her office and was about to distribute the documents, she realized that she still had a misunderstanding about Mr. Meng.

Each of these documents has made important approvals.Looking at the approval, I know that Mr. Meng has read these documents carefully and thought about them.

He even wrote some words that made Deng Yun laugh bitterly, such as writing on the document approval to Deep Space Film and Television: "Why is the movie filming so slow? I have been waiting for an update for three months! Hurry up!"

"It turns out that this is a real genius!" Deng Yun was deeply moved. How fast is the brain's thinking speed to complete the workload of others in three to 10 minutes?

……

Meng Xiaobai went to Blue Star Motors, the unmanned driving research base.

After half a year, the general structure of the Bluestar Automobile Super Factory has been completed, and it will be put into production in a few months.

However, the unmanned driving technology required by Meng Xiaobai, they actually said that it would take two or three years to mature and perfect.So Meng Xiaobai couldn't sit still anymore, and personally went over to urge the progress.

"Mr. Meng, this is Professor Hou Yuquan from Shanghai Jiaotong University. His team is responsible for the main system." Guan Yang introduced a professor in his 50s.

After a brief chat with Hou Yuquan, Meng Xiaobai asked, "Professor Hou, our Bluestar new energy vehicle will be put into production soon. Can the driverless system keep up?"

"There should be enough time." Hou Yuquan said, "Our team has been researching driverless systems for five years, and this time we cooperated with Bluestar Motors. After receiving the hardware support from Deep Space Semiconductor, we upgraded the system again. Now we have Passed the technical certification of autonomous driving L3 from the transportation department."

"This technology, in the current automotive field, is already considered the most advanced batch."

"L3?" Meng Xiaobai was not satisfied. In the field of automatic driving, there are five levels in total.

L1, that is, the auxiliary driving system, such as automatic cruise, automatic braking system, etc.

L2 is partially autonomous driving, which is more intelligent than L1 because it can achieve a certain degree of automatic driving.Even so, the driver must always be prepared, because driving may be required at any time.

L3 is conditional automatic driving. In most cases, it is automatic driving, and a safety officer is required to observe the situation.This is the current level reached by the research and development team. Most of the cars currently on the market are at the L1 and L2 levels. L3 is already the lead.

L4, basically fully autonomous driving, such as the self-driving cars and self-driving buses launched by Google and Qiandu.

L5 is the highest level. At this level, the car no longer needs a steering wheel and is completely controlled by an intelligent system.

What Meng Xiaobai thinks about is L5 autonomous driving.No company in the world can achieve this technology.

"Professor Hou, if we improve on the basis of L3, what do you think are the shortcomings?" Meng Xiaobai asked.

"Continue to improve?" Hou Yuquan thought for a while, and said, "The various sensor problems I was most worried about before, have been solved by Deep Space Semiconductor. I want to continue to improve. I think it may be the intelligent driving system of the car."

"We need better car-level smart chips, and at the same time update the algorithm of smart driving. I think it is not impossible to reach L4 in a year."

"Is it a car-grade smart chip? There's no problem with that. As for the algorithm, I'll figure it out." Meng Xiaobai said.

The so-called car-level smart chip is a smart chip that meets all the conditions for driving a car.Its biggest feature is safety and stability. At present, many companies have launched their own car-grade chips, but unfortunately, they are not very intelligent.

Meng Xiaobai transferred a few people from Nebula Information Technology Co., Ltd., and then stayed in the research laboratory to carry out the evolution of the driverless system.

If you want the unmanned driving system to be completely unmanned, continue to let the on-board chip handle all traffic conditions.This requires a lot of data and simulation experiments. Fortunately, they have reached a cooperation with the transportation department and obtained a large number of data samples.

Secondly, it is necessary to allow artificial intelligence to "learn" to deal with these things. In this field, Meng Xiaobai said first, and no one dared to say second!

And he has Xiaowanzi's corrections and supplements. His arrival has made the research progress by leaps and bounds.

At the same time, the robot Wang Yuanhang also led the team at Deep Space Semiconductor to develop car-level smart chips and upgrade car sensor settings.

With these hardware devices and the on-board intelligent system contributed by Meng Xiaobai, he believes that the self-driving system should be able to reach the L5 level.

In Bluestar Automobile's unmanned driving system experimental base, it took only one month for the research and development team to reach a height that had never been reached before.
