With shock and a lot of questions, Jiang Nan and the others followed Wu Hao to an intelligent regional unmanned delivery center not far from the company.
This intelligent regional unmanned delivery center is actually not big, just an independent three-story building. It can be seen that on the roof of this three-story building, a black medium-sized drone takes off and lands from time to time.
The appearance of this drone is similar to the air patrol drones that Wu Hao and others unveiled at the Zhuhai Air Show. The only difference is that a cargo warehouse is installed under the belly of the drone. Transport all types of goods.
"Mr. Wu!" The technicians of this intelligent area unmanned delivery center saw Wu Hao and the others coming and hurriedly greeted them.
Wu Hao nodded and said with a smile: "I'll just come over and take a look. You continue to do your work. Jiaming, you stay and introduce the situation to me."
Well, the young man in charge is Lin Jiaming, the technician who first followed them in the research and development of cluster array technology.
This time, he is mainly responsible for the implementation of the research and development work of this intelligent regional unmanned delivery system project.
He nodded to the technicians following him and motioned for them to continue working. Then he smiled at Wu Hao and said, "Mr. Wu, why are you free to come here today?"
Wu Hao smiled and glanced at Jiang Nan, and then said: "I just bought a cup of coffee with your system. The experience was not bad. Reporter Jiang was interested, so we came to take a look.
How about it, has it progressed to that stage now? "
Lin Jiaming glanced at Jiang Nan and the two cameras facing them and some other people, then nodded and smiled: "Welcome, welcome reporter Jiang to visit, I am the vice president of the intelligent regional unmanned delivery system project Engineer Lin Jiaming, welcome you."
"Thank you, Lin Gong, for disturbing me." Jiang Nan quickly shook hands with Lin Jiaming, and then apologized.
"Don't disturb, don't disturb." Lin Jiaming shook his head, then smiled at Wu Hao and Jiang Nan and introduced: "Now we have entered the actual operation and testing phase of this intelligent regional unmanned delivery system. At present, we have accumulated a lot of experience. Rich data.
Next, we will improve and optimize these data and exposed problems, and strive to complete the next phase of testing as soon as possible.
Of course, we also gained a lot during the testing period. From the very beginning, we went to merchants for cooperation, and now many merchants have taken the initiative to approach us, hoping to join the testing process of this system.
Moreover, our test system has more and more registered users. From less than thirty test users, we now have thousands of active users.
Now we have to process tens of thousands of orders of all kinds every day, and we can deliver 85% of the orders within 15 minutes. Customer satisfaction is very high. "
Wu Hao and Jiang Nan nodded when they heard this. The fact that they had accumulated so many test users during the test session and could handle tens of thousands of orders per day showed that this system was very successful.
"Are there any problems or difficulties?" Wu Hao asked immediately.
Lin Jiaming glanced at the camera, then nodded at him and said: "There are many problems and many difficulties.
First of all, we encountered a very difficult problem, that is, someone is maliciously destroying our drones and unmanned vehicles. "
"Well, what's going on?" Although Wu Hao had a rough guess in his mind, he was still stable.
Lin Jiaming smiled bitterly and shook his head: "In addition to some people who are curious and deliberately causing trouble, we also encountered a delivery boy who secretly destroyed an unmanned vehicle.
Of course, these were all captured by our surveillance systems installed on drones and unmanned vehicles, and the relevant personnel have been handed over to the police.
But the problems exposed still deserve our attention. After all, if our system is to be promoted, such things may happen frequently. "
Jiang Nan nodded when he heard this. Indeed, this is a difficult question. This intelligent regional unmanned delivery system can be regarded as taking away the jobs of couriers and delivery boys, so the delivery boys will destroy their equipment.
It sounds reasonable, and many people even sympathize with the plight of couriers and delivery boys. But no matter what they encounter, it is not a reason for them to maliciously damage other people's equipment.
Wu Hao was not in a hurry to speak but looked at Lin Jiaming and asked, "What do you think? Is there any good solution?"
Lin Jiaming shook his head and said: "This is an irreconcilable contradiction, and it is impossible to completely resolve it.
Therefore, we can only start from other aspects, on the one hand, strengthen the anti-destruction ability of our own equipment. Especially for unmanned vehicles that are easily damaged, the appearance of the equipment will be strengthened in subsequent improvements and optimization upgrades.
The second step is to add relevant warning words to the system. For example, when someone maliciously damages the equipment, our equipment records the video for evidence collection. On the other hand, warning sounds and words sounded, warning the other party not to continue to destroy.
And in the end, it is to strengthen relevant publicity efforts and gradually ease the conflicts between the two parties. "
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this and said: "These methods are not bad, let's implement them like this.
The emergence of new things is bound to be strongly blocked by old things. This is normal. However, from a development perspective, new things will eventually replace old things.
Therefore, you need to make this clear to everyone. Not only our own scientific researchers, but also the public and these takeaway boys and couriers.
Of course, this process of replacing the old with the new cannot be too fast, and requires a gradual evolution process.
So we can't rush it, we have to do it slowly and step by step. If it develops too fast, the conflicts it will stir up will become more acute, which is not in our interests and is not conducive to our development.
Secondly, our system still has its own major shortcomings. It cannot completely replace labor, but requires labor to supplement it.
For example, some oversized and overweight express items are not suitable for transportation and delivery by this system. Another example is that takeout involves some services, such as self-service hot pot, which our equipment cannot handle.
Therefore, as you proceed, you must gradually guide these people to transform in these aspects.
Finally, the coverage of this intelligent regional unmanned delivery system is relatively limited at this stage. The areas it is currently suitable for are mainly high-end residential areas, high-end business districts, and some communities with relatively complete basic equipment.
In some cities, such as urban villages, remote suburbs, and some old cities and towns with poor transportation and public security, this still needs to be delivered manually. "
