A shopping center in Longhua, Shenzhen launched unmanned delivery last week, and the delivery route will be announced in late August, according to Jinyang.com. Last month, unmanned delivery has landed in four local shopping areas, covering more than 10 communities and office buildings, serving nearly 20,000 residents, and has completed more than 58,000 orders for real users.
According to the statistics of the New Strategy Driverless Industry Research Institute, more than 200 important financing events were disclosed in the domestic and international automatic driving industry in 2021, with a total financing amount of nearly 150 billion yuan (including IPO). Among them, there were nearly 70 financing events and more than 30 billion yuan for low-speed unmanned products and solution providers.
In the past two years, unmanned distribution, unmanned cleaning, unmanned warehousing landing scene like a spring burst, the strong entry of capital is to promote unmanned vehicles into the development of the "fast lane". In the multimodal sensor fusion technology development, the pioneer representative has entered the "professional" team, the implementation of road cleaning, courier delivery, delivery and other types of tasks.
As a substitute for manpower "future professional car", to compete in the emerging industry to come out on top, the application of the obstacle avoidance program can not be sloppy, must be based on the work of the scene for the car empowered, such as sanitation industry unmanned car should have to identify the stock function; distribution industry unmanned car should have a safe obstacle avoidance function; warehousing industry unmanned car should have emergency risk avoidance function ......
Sanitation: Trinity intelligent sensing solution
AUDIOWELL provides a trinity of intelligent sensing solutions for the Candela Sunshine robot, which was elected as the "cleaner" of the Beijing Winter Olympics, equipped with 19 ultrasonic radars to empower the robot with all-around obstacle avoidance, anti-overflow and anti-dumping functions.
Omni-directional obstacle avoidance
The rear is equipped with 2 ultrasonic radars for reverse monitoring and warning of obstacles, while the front is equipped with 3 ultrasonic radars and 6 ultrasonic radars on the side to realize all-around horizontal, vertical and diagonal forward and obstacle avoidance functions.
Anti-overflow
One sensor is installed on the top of the loading area to monitor the loading situation and ensure that the loading capacity meets the safety standards.
Anti-dumping
Prevents the split part from tipping over due to external force when it is not loaded or when the loading capacity is low, jeopardizing public safety.
Distribution : all-round intelligent obstacle avoidance solution
Compared with long-distance logistics, the core of the distribution industry scenario lies in short-distance and high-frequency, which means that unmanned distribution vehicles must be more flexible and safer in their design to cope with complex urban scenarios, such as building shuttling and obstacle avoidance in alleyways. AUDIOWELL provides a full range of intelligent obstacle avoidance solutions for the Chinese Academy of Sciences' startup team Little Lion, helping Little Lion become one of the first unmanned delivery vehicles in China to be tested in a semi-open environment.
Front and rear obstacle avoidance
One ultrasonic radar is assembled at the top of the front and rear for detecting higher obstacles, such as height limiters, etc. Three ultrasonic radars are assembled at the lower part of the front and rear for detecting low and front-side obstacles, such as traffic limitation poles, etc. At the same time, the front and rear ends are equipped with a full range of intelligent obstacle avoidance solutions. At the same time, the ultrasonic radar configured at the front and rear ends can escort the unmanned vehicle to reverse or turn.
Side Obstacle Avoidance
One ultrasonic radar is installed on the top of both sides for detecting high side obstacles and assisting in activating the pickup function; three ultrasonic radars are installed on the bottom of each side for detecting low side obstacles, such as road edges, green belts, and standing poles. In addition, the left and right sides of the ultrasonic radar for the unmanned car to accurately find a suitable parking "parking space", the successful completion of automatic parking.
Warehousing: emergency avoidance and route optimisation solution
Commonly, unmanned vehicles in warehousing are localized through infrared, laser and other technical solutions for local path planning, but these two technical solutions will be affected by the accuracy of the light, and collision hazards may occur when multiple vehicles cross the road in the warehouse. AUDIOWELL provides light-independent emergency avoidance and route optimization solutions for the warehouse industry, using ultrasonic radar to help warehouse AGVs achieve autonomous obstacle avoidance in warehouses, and stopping in time and accurately to avoid collisions in times of crisis.
Emergency avoidance
When the ultrasonic radar detects obstacles and enters the warning area, the sensor will feedback the orientation information of the obstacles closest to the unmanned vehicle to the AGV control system in time, and the control system will control the vehicle to slow down and stop. For those obstacles that are not in the area where the cart is advancing, the radar will not warn even if the distance is close enough to ensure the efficiency of the cart's operation.
Route Optimization
The unmanned vehicle carries out local path planning through laser point cloud combined with high-precision map to obtain a number of trajectories to be selected, and then projects the obstacle information obtained by ultrasonic wave, back-calculates it to the vehicle coordinate system, and carries out further screening and correction on the obtained trajectories to be selected to finally come up with the optimal trajectory and move forward according to the trajectory.
