Recently, Jingdong Digital Science with its self-developed machine room inspection robot in the Recently, by virtue of its self-developed machine room inspection robot in the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China's data center, the indoor delivery robot in the Shanghai Public **** Health Clinical Center, as well as a number of other robots in the industrial scene of the innovative breakthroughs, one after another won the "2020 China IDC Industry Innovative Technology Award", "2020 China Specialty Robot Civilian Innovation Award", "2020 China Robot Outstanding Contribution to the Frontline of Epidemic Prevention Award" and other awards, and in the 2020 China Robotics Industry Annual Meeting, among the "China Robotics Leading Enterprises Top 30 ".
From 2018 officially entered the robotics industry, independent research and development of the first intelligent robot products "room inspection robot" to the present, just a few years time, Jingdong digital science has become a dark horse in the robotics industry. Aiming at the starry sea of technological innovation, Jingdong Numerical Technology insists on doing "the most painstaking and tiring thing with the most value" on the track of robotics from 0 to 1. It has successively released a number of industry-leading AI robot products, and through its partner eco-system, it has provided solutions for a wide range of scenarios such as communications, transportation, energy, medical care, government affairs, etc.. The TIE model of technology + industry + ecology serves the industry and continuously creates value for customers and society.
It is understood that, up to now, Jingdong Numerical AI robot series products have landed in the service of the People's Bank of China, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, China Railway Information Engineering Group, the Shanghai Municipal Public **** Health Clinical Center, the Third Intermediate People's Court of Beijing, and a number of large enterprises and institutions.
The achievements of BOE Numerical Technology in the field of AI robots are not only the recognition of BOE Numerical Technology's AI robots in the industry***, service to the real industry, and the intelligent upgrading of the industry, but also the fact that BOE Numerical Technology, under the concept of "Driving the digitization of the industry with AI", is based on independent scientific and technological innovation, and provides industrial partners with "Technology (Technology)", which is the most advanced technology in the industry.
Being in the industry is a great example of the full range of TIE services provided to industrial partners under the concept of "AI-driven industrial digitization" and based on independent technological innovation.
In the era of industrial automation, robotics is known as "the pearl at the top of the manufacturing crown", driven by automation capabilities, production capacity can be effectively released, social productivity has been greatly enhanced, and ultimately achieved the greatness of the times; and in the context of the digital era, accompanied by the rapid development of science and technology, the development of technology is rapidly changing, based on AI technology. With the rapid development of science and technology and the rapid change of technology, based on the AI technology, the product form, service scene and business model of AI robots, what will be the new changes and direction in the future, and how to refresh people's cognition and expand the boundaries of the unknown?
In the field of robotics award-winning Jingdong Numerical Science AI robot, through a series of products in the industry application of eye-catching performance, may bring us part of the answer.
In the view of Yao Xiujun, General Manager of the Intelligent Robot Business Department of Jingdong Digital Technology, AI technology is a watershed in the development of the robotics industry, representing a step from the era of automation into a new era of intelligence. "Before the large-scale combination of AI and robotics, it is still mainly automation-based, solving some repetitive labor and labor intensity problems. While AI robots are required to integrate a large amount of external data, the ability to perceive the environment will make a unified collaboration, which is some collaboration between its own hardware environment, as well as the collaboration between machines and people will also be strengthened."
Facing the future of intelligent robots, Jingdong Digital Science and Technology in the industry innovation put forward the concept of "three brains and three bodies", the cloud brain that is cloud computing, in the cloud under the powerful arithmetic, to help AI robots to effectively solve a variety of complex scenarios; machine brain that is the edge of the computational processing capabilities, to be able to solve the personalized problems inside the specific scene; The human brain is the human brain power, human participation in the interaction with the robot to accelerate the intelligent evolution of the robot. The "three brains" also need a physical entity to really interact with the outside world, on this basis, it will produce mechanical body, digital body, and human body.
For the "three brains and three bodies" between how to produce application value, Yao Xiujun said, "three brains and three bodies system is not isolated, the integration between each other and data interaction will be increasingly strong. And with the development of the entire intelligent technology and the development of the robotics industry, will also slowly form a robot network system, so that the efficiency of the robot is greatly improved, but also effectively enhance the collaboration between the robot."
"We believe that in 1-3 years the robotics industry will maintain a sustained and rapid development, and within 5 years there will be a relatively large outbreak", in front of the broad prospects for the development of AI robots, Yao Xiujun believes that the challenge still exists, "how to effectively depress the cost of the upper supply chain. Take the robot as an example, at this stage of its large-scale core components, like LiDAR, drives, sensors, chips, etc., in the past two years, the trend of cost reduction is very obvious. Whether such a trend can continue in the future, to a certain extent, will also affect the marketability and application of technical equipment such as AI."
Serving the industry with AI robots means really getting stuck into the industry to practically solve industry problems. Yao Xiujun believes that "robotics is not a traditional Internet play, relying on Internet traffic or precision marketing is difficult to achieve the industrialization of the B-side scene, to truly solve the pain points in the actual industry. Robotics industry chain is incredibly long, technology research and development, production investment, landing operation and maintenance and other capabilities of the construction of the need to go deep into the industrial scene, with partners to tie down, sink, for a long time precipitation and accumulation."
It is also in this pragmatic spirit of serving the industry, Jingdong Numerical Science AI robot relying on the continued accumulation of technical strength, for a number of industrial scenarios to provide valuable services. For example, during this year's epidemic, the machine room inspection AI robot landed in the data center of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, through automatic inspection, human body tracking and following, data recognition and analysis and other functions, instead of manual real-time monitoring of the machine room environment information, equipment operation status, equipment temperature information, etc., so as to do the fault alarm and asset inventory. It is understood that the machine room inspection robot can be completed in an average of 30 seconds within a single cabinet inspection, and detection accuracy of more than 98%, SLAM autonomous navigation accuracy error within 20 mm, significantly improving the operation and maintenance management of digital and intelligent level, it is estimated that each year for the data center's machine room operation and maintenance costs reduced by 50%.
BOE Digital also joined forces with Silverwing Healthcare during the epidemic, and in just 20 days of emergency deployment, launched an indoor delivery AI robot, which quickly landed in the Shanghai Municipal Public **** Health Clinical Center, assisting healthcare workers in the intelligent delivery of medicines and supplies, etc., saving the hospital's manpower by 50%, and reducing the risk of personnel being infected while improving work efficiency; in addition, based on the Beijing Municipality's In addition, based on the Beijing Third Intermediate People's Court new site relocation, the construction of the background of the Court of wisdom, Jingdong digital science also in the indoor delivery robot on the basis of the universal chassis "transformation" for the file delivery robot, help file delivery, reduce the non-trial workload of the personnel handling the case.
However, in a number of scenarios, pure product breakthroughs is not the ambition of the Jingdong Numerical Technology to do robotics, but hope that through the existing products to polish the basic ability to open the basic ability to the robotics industry segments, to build the industry chain ecological. "On the basis of our own product capabilities, we will open up all the capabilities, such as software SDK, hardware interfaces, electrical standards, etc., so that partners can adapt to more complex and personalized scenarios, and Jingdong Numerical Science is to be the ecological, platform-based party." Yao Xiujun said.
Under the industry opportunities and challenges in the development of AI robots, Jingdong Numerical AI robots will advance with the industry in the TIE mode ****, continue to promote scientific and technological innovation in the process of industrial digitization, and build a robotics industry ecosystem with partners ****.
