While the automotive industry and related manufacturing industries are paying attention to He Xingzhou's next live broadcast, He Xingzhou is studying wireless charging technology with the research team in the research institute.
Their wireless charging is not the short-distance wireless charging of portable electronic products like mobile phones, but a more powerful technology for charging metal aerodynamic batteries.
He Xingzhou envisions that his electromagnetic float can be charged in a variety of ways.
One is the most traditional one, charging using charging piles. This will undoubtedly reduce the efficiency of logistics and transportation, so the improvement plan is to replace the battery cells. As long as the battery cells of the metal-air battery are replaced, it only takes less than ten seconds to "resurrect the battery with full blood"!
They can currently do both of these methods, but He Xingzhou is still not satisfied.
He hopes that maglev vehicles can achieve completely seamless charging, which is high-power wireless charging technology.
"Consuming 100 units of energy, short-distance wireless power transmission technology has been unlocked." On the technology tree, He Xingzhou unlocked this technology.
In this technology, there is also medium-distance, long-distance, and even ultra-long-distance energy transmission technology with a distance of light years.
For example, using "waves" like light to transmit energy and so on. This technology is also an energy transmission technology that will be needed to build Dyson spheres in the future.
What He Xingzhou unlocked was short-distance energy transmission using electromagnetic fields.
After absorbing and mastering this knowledge, He Xingzhou held a research meeting.
"Everyone." The conference room was filled with power engineers and scientists, most of whom were from the State Grid and the Institute of Electricity and Electromagnetics.
"I think that since maglev vehicles need to lay magnetic materials on the road, we can further transform the magnetic materials on the road." He Xingzhou took out his design plan and showed it to everyone.
"As early as 1890, Nikola Tesla conducted wireless power transmission experiments. He once imagined using the earth as the inner conductor and the earth's ionosphere as the outer conductor, using an amplified transmitter to oscillate in a radial electromagnetic wave mode. A low-frequency resonance of about 8Hz is established between the earth and the ionosphere, using surface electromagnetic waves surrounding the earth to transmit energy."
"This idea was too avant-garde. Although it was not completed, later scientists theoretically calculated that if free-space waveguide beams are used, nearly 100% transmission efficiency can be achieved."
"What I envision now is to lay a layer of equipment on the magnetic road surface, which can cause the magnetic field between the electromagnetic float and the road surface to resonate. This section of the road is connected to the power grid, and the electric energy is transmitted to the electromagnetic float in the form of electromagnetic field resonance. A wireless power receiver converts it into electrical power, which is then stored in a battery.”
"In this way, our maglev vehicle does not need to stop to charge or replace the battery! It can be charged while driving, maximizing logistics efficiency!"
At this time, no one responded to his words, because all the experts were reading the materials he distributed, which read "Design Plan for Short-Distance Electromagnetic Coupling Induction Wireless Power Transmission System."
It took half an hour for someone to speak one after another.
"Theoretically, there is no problem at all!" an electricity expert murmured to himself.
"We have been researching wireless power transmission technology, but it is all based on electromagnetic waves transmitting microwave energy and converting it into a small amount of electrical energy. At most, this electrical energy can only fully charge the mobile phone battery. The wireless power transmission power in Mr. He's plan is at least It’s a thousand times better than ours!” The engineer of the power grid held the plan document in his hand, trembling with excitement.
"According to this plan, not only can we make wireless power transmission between road surfaces and electromagnetic floats, but we can also make short-distance wireless power transmission devices!"
"In some special areas of our country, laying wires and power grids is very troublesome. If we design wireless power transmission towers based on this technology, wouldn't it be able to reduce our costs by more than 80%?"
These experts have begun to think divergently and thought of various application scenarios of this technology.
"Yes, once this technology is popularized, traditional electric vehicles can also be used. There are also other electronic products that can be fully extended to family life if their safety performance is guaranteed."
"In a residential community, you don't even need to sign for wires. If you build a wireless power transmission tower in the community, you only need to install a wireless power receiving device at home to have electricity!"
"All electrical appliances and smart devices will change as a result! They will become more convenient and easier to use!"
…
The more they talked, the more excited they became, and they even started discussing how to build a nationwide wireless power transmission network.
He Xingzhou had a smile on his face. This was really the effect he wanted to achieve.
Manufacturing electromagnetic floats is just a phased goal. The various technologies developed in the process of reaching the goal are its real purpose.
The application of these technologies in various aspects can drive the overall scientific and technological progress of the entire country!
"Ahem." He Xingzhou interrupted their discussion and said, "Everyone, please stop getting excited."
“This kind of short-distance wireless power transmission has not yet reached the level of building a power grid, and safety and the like still need to be researched and improved.”
"You can continue to study it in depth, but before that, we have to make a wireless charging magnetic road in the laboratory."
"Yes, yes, yes! One bite will not make you fat. Let's develop the wireless charging of this electromagnetic float first. This can also serve as a technical reserve for us to build a national wireless network!"
They reminded He Xingzhou that his plan should include building a wireless power transmission grid across the country! Even a planetary radio network circling the entire Earth!
I still have to unlock the medium-distance wireless power transmission technology and then discuss it with Xuanwu executives.
Everyone calmed down and began to carefully analyze and discuss how to charge the electromagnetic float while driving.
"It is unrealistic to lay charging roads on all roads, and the cost is too high. We can set a certain stage as a charging road. When the electromagnetic float enters this road section, it will automatically turn on the charging state, and set up a charging protection mode to ensure various safety facility."
"If it's a thunderstorm, will charging be affected by the thunderstorm? Should I stop charging?"
"How to prevent a single vehicle accident from affecting the road surface or the charging of other electromagnetic floats on the road?"
…
Even if they have the technology, they still have to formulate a complete plan to implement it.
At the same time, in the autonomous driving technology group, researchers are also improving the autonomous driving system.
Currently, autonomous driving technology is internationally classified into L0 (no autonomous driving); L1 (driver-assisted driving); L2 (partially autonomous driving); L3 (automatic driving subject to conditions); L4 (highly autonomous driving) and L5 (fully autonomous driving) five levels.
The experts in He Xingzhou's team, combined with their existing research results, have been able to achieve L4 highly autonomous driving.
There is still a gap between L5 fully autonomous driving, but L5 fully autonomous driving on an electromagnetic float is easier than traditional cars.
Because electromagnetic floats currently have to drive on magnetic roads, this isolates many complex driving scenarios; its speed, regulation, etc., must be integrated into the intelligent transportation network for unified regulation. In this way, the electromagnetic floats can be realized L5 level autonomous driving has become the simplest research in this project, and does not require He Xingzhou's personal participation.
Everything is going on in an intense and orderly manner, and He Xingzhou's electromagnetic float is about to be launched!
