Chapter 507 Heyuan Power(2/2)
The newly established R&D and testing center in Chonghai two years ago focuses on developing intelligent driving assistance and control technologies. It is also a core of Tianyue Industry's clear focus on breakthroughs in automotive electronic information technology.
Although the Intelligent Driving Control R&D Center has only been established for a short time, less than a year including the preparation period, Tianyue enjoys a patented intelligent driving assistance and control system and has developed a prototype.
Although in the eyes of Zheng Chuyuan, Gu Fan and others, the development of a prototype of the system is not that great. The maturity of the technology can only be said to be the first step in a long journey of thousands of miles. However, when you see the roof and the body of the car are filled with radars, cameras, wireless
The prototype car with various sensors such as receivers was in the test track, using short-range communication to achieve preliminary autonomous driving functions. Cao Mo and Cheng Xi both felt very novel and excited.
Of course, Zheng Jinyuan spoke modestly, but Cao Mo could still feel the pride in his heart.
In automobile manufacturing, in addition to traditional patent technology barriers, in emerging technology fields, everyone is almost on the same starting line. Zheng Chunyuan is still confident that he will not lag behind others.
When traditional international major manufacturers adopt and integrate new technologies, they are often constrained by the diseases of large enterprises and appear conservative and procrastinating. This is precisely a rare opportunity for emerging car companies to break through.
Of course, as Zheng Chunyuan said, the development of prototypes of intelligent driving assistance and control systems is far from success. There is still a long way to go before it is practical or partially practical.
Zheng Chuyuan joined Tianyue and brought a new motor drive technology he developed for power battery vehicles, but this new technology is not mature enough.
If this technology is to be applied to new energy electric vehicles, it is optimistically estimated that it will take more than three years of development cycle to mature.
The more critical aspect of this is the need to conduct a large number of simulations and actual road conditions tests, which requires extremely large investment of resources.
This is also the key reason why Zheng Jinyuan finally decided to join Tianyue.
The national laboratory he is responsible for at Xinhai University cannot spend so many resources on the later development of new technologies.
For other car companies, even those that have decided to enter the field of new energy vehicle manufacturing, they currently have mature and reliable motor drive technology that can be directly introduced and used, and they are unwilling to invest a lot in a project that cannot be directly applied in the short term.
New technology adventure of resources and time.
Tianyue acquired this technology and is willing to invest resources in later development.
For Zheng Jinyuan, this is more attractive than an annual salary of tens of millions.
Of course, the main reason for this is that Tianyue Industrial has deeply imbued Cao Mo with his own unique style.
Domestic car companies and joint venture car companies are currently at their peak, relying on overseas technology development and lacking the motivation to develop their own technology.
Car companies that manufacture and sell purely domestically produced cars are still struggling in the low-end market.
Only Tianyue Industry, with sufficient financial support from Cao Mo, has made hundreds of millions of dollars in profits from motorcycle manufacturing and sales, but it can be said that it has "unrestrainedly" spent more than 7 billion yuan on it.
