Since the beginning of the year, the enthusiasm of "new infrastructure" has been high. Different from the "old infrastructure" proposed in 2008, "new infrastructure" focuses more on highlighting the new direction of industrial transformation and upgrading, which reflects the acceleration of industrial high-end development. The general trend of the industry refers to the 7 major areas of 5G infrastructure, UHV, intercity high-speed railway and urban rail transit, new energy vehicle charging piles, big data centers, artificial intelligence, and industrial Internet.
After the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, some traditional industries were impacted, but at the same time a "contactless economy" was born under the background of the epidemic, which accelerated some key industries into the fast lane, especially the service robot industry. When the epidemic caused many social public services to be almost suspended, the "new infrastructure" represented by 5G, industrial Internet, big data, artificial intelligence, and unmanned distribution has built a new social "circular system".
In recent years, with the rise of artificial intelligence, service robots have been used in innovative landing applications in various industries such as medical care, security, retail, catering, and finance. Let the cutting-edge technology born out of scientific research laboratories enter the commercialization, and continuously optimize iterative according to market demand, and realize the leap from prototype to batch. The introduction of the new infrastructure policy has also promoted the development of the service robot industry and brought major benefits, not only investment benefits, but also the benefits that new infrastructure will bring to the overall industry of service robots.
For service robots, autonomous positioning and navigation technology is one of the core and focus of its industry, which is continuously attracting industry attention. Autonomous positioning and navigation technology is a key technology to realize the practicality and intelligence of intelligent robot products. To realize autonomous positioning and navigation of robots, it is necessary to have the ability to independently construct maps, recognize obstacles and effectively avoid them. At the same time, it also needs to know its own location and coordinate feedback to the upper application to assist in positioning and navigation.
Therefore, this needs to involve the robot's perception ability, and it needs to use related sensors, such as lidar, to help the robot perceive the surrounding environment, so as to obtain the contour map of the surrounding environment, construct effective map data, and combine the corresponding algorithm to realize the autonomous positioning of the robot. navigation.
For many small and medium-sized robot companies, it is difficult to master the comprehensive technical system of mobile robots. It is also necessary to apply these technologies to robots. It is difficult to truly realize the development and use of intelligent mobile robot products. it goes without saying.
In order to achieve rapid research and development of robot products and seize the market, more and more robot companies are more inclined to choose the mature robot autonomous positioning and navigation solutions that are already on the market. They can directly expand their applications on the upper level, which will save limited energy and energy. Resources to meet the needs of segmented scenarios.
Nowadays, companies that only provide low-level technical services for robots have emerged in endlessly. As early as a few years before the concept of "new infrastructure" was put forward, head robot positioning and navigation companies such as Silan Technology had smelled opportunities and seized market opportunities. Provide a series of products such as lidar, navigation algorithm and general chassis for service robot companies to help robots solve basic motion problems such as environment perception, map construction and obstacle avoidance, and realize autonomous movement of robots.
During the new crown pneumonia epidemic prevention period, there are countless service robots fighting on the front line based on Silan technology products. For example, the Cruzr (Cruzer) of Ubisoft, which uses the laser radar product of Silan technology, can realize freedom like human beings. mobile. During the epidemic prevention and control period, Cruzr undertook the epidemic publicity and diagnosis work, which can provide visitors with the latest epidemic knowledge, epidemic policy, epidemic prevention and control and other information services. In addition to hospitals, this intelligent service robot for sanitation and epidemic prevention can also be used in many places such as transportation hubs, living communities, square parks, industrial parks, commercial blocks, etc. Even in the face of various complex public places, Cruzr does not have stage fright. Can walk flexibly.
Xiaoben intelligent ultra-dry atomizing disinfection robot. During the epidemic prevention period, Xiaoben intelligent disinfection robot can meet the needs of hospitals, production workshops, laboratories, service halls, airports, railway stations, subway stations, food companies, hotels, schools, etc. The disinfected public places diffuse micron liquid beads to complete the disinfection process. It is based on the self-developed positioning and navigation system of Silan Technology, which can autonomously scan the surrounding environment, construct high-precision map data, and help the robot realize autonomous navigation, avoid obstacles, and plan the optimal route to the destination. Allow the robot to run smoothly and ensure the smooth completion of the disinfection work.
Dana Technology's 5G cloud medical assistant robot Pepper has provided non-contact 24-hour consultation and guidance services for many hospitals in Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan, etc. during the new pneumonia epidemic. It is developed based on the mobile chassis of Silan Technology, which can autonomously scan the surrounding environment information to achieve autonomous positioning and mapping, path planning and other functions. Can effectively help medical staff to undertake inquiries, guidance and other tasks.
…
In addition to the above anti-epidemic service robots, there are many mobile robots based on Silan Technology's positioning and navigation technology in the "battlefield" of the new crown pneumonia. In the face of various complex mobile environments, they can still achieve autonomous walking in an orderly manner without hitting the wall. Do not hit people, do not fall, and ensure the safety of robots and pedestrians.
The maturity of the underlying technology of the robot determines its application potential in the market. With the “escort” of Silan Technology’s autonomous positioning and navigation technology, service robot companies can greatly reduce the R&D cost of the underlying technology and put more R&D energy into To the upper application.
