Monster Factory - 738

On the multi-directional car speed table, the lightning car stopped quietly.

At the traffic light in front, the red light is blinking continuously.

Coupled with the traffic sign simulation system on the ground, this makes reporters feel nervous and excited about being in the examination room together with Thunder Car, waiting for the test to arrive.

If judged according to the 90-point pass standard of Subject 1, in this examination room, even the old taxi drivers who have been driving for many years have failed the examination, which shows how harsh and strict this examination is!

The viewers who are watching the live broadcast of this test have a kind of excitement to participate in the historical turning point.

“Everyone, come and guess how many points Jilei Auto can test?”

“I guess 80. I heard the fat official say that all the road signs in the country can be simulated here. If we go to take the test, it is estimated that we won’t be able to score forty.”

“I rely on~ this system is amazing. I feel that Jilei Auto is not testing the remote driving function, but is testing the driver’s license. This reminds me of the scene of the first test of subject 1, and I have tested it five times…”

“This test method is clear at a glance, I have to say that our country is getting better and better.”

“Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3 are really too vivid. If Thunderbolt can pass these tests, then I approve of the function of remote driving.”

“I agree too!”

…

“Please wait a moment.”

The U.S. representative spoke out, interrupting the thoughts of many viewers in the live and live broadcast.

“U.S. representative, do you have anything to add?” Director Duan Shuangqing hummed and signaled not to start the test.

“Everyone~ As a third-party monitoring agency, we have a few questions. I want to ask before the test begins.”

“First, according to the prior information, the remote driving function can be divided into remote driver driving and remote supercomputing driving. Then, we want to know which driving mode is this test?”

“Second, is the wireless connection of remote driving strictly in accordance with the network environment under the real road? This is very important. If a network repeater is installed in the test center, or a wireless network interface is opened to the lightning car, Then we believe that this test will not be able to fairly and impartially test whether the remote driving function is good or bad.”

“Third, how far is the remote driving command center from us? If it is too close, I think this does not fit the real road environment.”

After speaking, the US representative handed the questioning look to the representative of the Giant Monster Industry.

The media booth was dumbfounded for a few seconds, and then quickly relieved, the reporter also hurriedly explained to the audience watching the live broadcast through the microphone the meaning of the two issues raised by the U.S. representative.

When Behemoth Industry introduced this function, it once said that in the early stage, it used a professional driver to remotely control the lightning car. When the various driving habits of these drivers are entered by the supercomputing, the supercomputing will gradually replace these old drivers and become “virtual drivers” through the accumulation of a large amount of data.

So now, the driving seat of Thunderbolt is empty. Later, is it a carefully trained professional driver driving, or a supercomputer “virtual driver” driving?

The second question is the Internet public opinion, discussing the wireless connection problem with the most remote driving functions.

As we all know, when the Thunderbolt turns on the remote driving function, it can only rely on the 4G network all over the city to connect to the command center of the Giant Monster Industry.

On the 4G network, there will be problems with dropped connections or reduced signal strength.

The lightning car in front of us is about to open the remote driving function, which can only be tested by connecting to the 4G network.

The U.S. representative must make sure of this, in case the testing center opens up the wireless router of the gigabit fiber broadband for lightning vehicles. What else to test, sit in a lightning car, and watch Blu-ray HD movies.

The third point is delay. The longer the distance, the greater the delay of the wireless network. Isn’t it cheating if the control center of the giant beast industry moves nearby?

I have to say that the US representative asked these questions very professionally, and it also attracted the attention of the media and the audience.

Yeah~

Many reporters nodded in agreement. Only when these problems are confirmed can this test be perfect.

“The U.S. representative seems to have come prepared.” On the seat of the Behemoth Industry representative, Kong Tao looked at Jayne with a smile but a smile. “The first question, I want to ask the U.S. representative first, which one do you want us to use? This model is more in line with the requirements of this test?”

“Naturally it is a’virtual driver’. Since the goal of Behemoth is to replace the driver with supercomputer, then I want it to be okay for supercomputer to recognize traffic signs.” The U.S. representative Jayne put on an unselfish expression in his heart. In fact, smiling in Yin.

At his left and right, sat a group of senior technicians from Tesla’s Smart Car Laboratory.

These senior technicians have already analyzed that the Behemoth Industry allows supercomputers to replace drivers, which is impossible in a short time. Their Tesla Automobile Laboratory began research on this technology as early as five years ago, but they know that today, the system they have developed still cannot accurately identify various traffic signs on the road.

Only a few months after the giant animal industry entered the automotive field?

“We also think that a’virtual driver’ is more capable of this job.” Kong Tao nodded and spoke faster. “The answer to the second and third points is no. The detection center includes nearby areas. We have not placed any network. Following the installation, there is no network open to Jilei Automobile. As for the control center, it is naturally in Zhongyun City.”

“If the U.S. representative is skeptical, we welcome to come to verify it.”

“We have no problem.” The US representative Jayne smiled.

Director Duan Shuangqing announced the start of the test again. Following the order, the technicians on the side started the test equipment here.

“Dozens of seconds back, please be prepared for relevant testers.”

“Ten, nine, eight…”

“Five, four, three…”

With the electronically synthesized countdown sound rang in the ears, the lightning car that was originally parked on the multi-directional speed table silently lights up the daytime running lights. At the same time, there is a circle of green lights in the chrome moldings under the car glass. It keeps flashing and looks very sci-fi.

At the end of the countdown, the flashing red light in front immediately turned green.

The deserted Thunder car had already rotated its tires in the next moment and was hired on the speed table.

The rollers on the speed table rotate with the tires, so the lightning car always keeps the same position in the driving state.

Five seconds later, a large screen on one side showed that the speed of the Thunder Car had reached 40, and the tires and wheels were humming. Just as everyone looked around, where the road sign was, a sign indicating the speed limit of 60 to 120 suddenly appeared from the front.

The lightning vehicle is clearly not moving, but the signs are drawn from far and near, and approaching the lightning, giving people a feeling of a lightning vehicle moving on the road.

This is a sign moving, and everyone quickly recognizes this sign as a very common speed limit sign on highways. Many people laughed, and the rapid thunder car got on the high speed before it ran for a few seconds.

“Om~”

The instant the sign appeared, the speed of the Swift car began to increase, and it took two seconds to go from 40 yards to 100. At the same time, the large screen on one side quickly gave a point.

[If the judgment is correct, the score will be increased by 1! 】

[The reaction time from the appearance of the sign to the acceleration is 0.05 seconds. 】

[Past test results, the average driver reaction time is 0.88 seconds. 】

“Huh?” Director Duan Shuangqing suddenly slapped wit, good fellow, the reaction speed is more than twenty times the human level. You must know that these past results are all tested by professional drivers.

The reporters in the media booth also rubbed their eyes and watched the content on the screen in surprise.

But before they could calculate the speed in their minds, another traffic sign appeared.

This is a triangle sign with a…

What was printed?

It took a second or two for everyone to see the contents of the sign one after another. It was a smoking locomotive.

However, the lightning car had already turned on its brake lights as early as the moment the sign appeared. When the whistle of “beep~” whistling sounded in the hall, the lightning car had been parked on the spot for several seconds. Accompanied by the whistle, a locomotive actually drove from one side…

This is a foam board prop locomotive fixed on the slide rail, which is also covered with bumps and bumps.

“Uh…” Director Duan Shuangqing swallowed laboriously and explained to the microphone: “Don’t worry about how unreasonable it is to drive a train on a high speed. After all, we are here to test the driver’s ability to cope with various accidents. .”

“As you can see, most professional drivers in the past have turned around here. This is an unguarded traffic sign at a railway crossing. Our system can determine the distance between the train and the car based on the speed of the car. Drivers can’t respond. , The train didn’t drive straight, but slanted into the car.”

If the judgment is correct, the score will be increased by 1!

The reaction time from the appearance of the sign to the brake is 0.04 seconds.

“I have nothing to say, human beings will never reach this speed of reaction in a lifetime.” Director Duan Shuangqing gave a thumbs up to the representative of the Giant Beast Industry.

The representative of Giant Animal Industry, Director Chong Duan Shuangqing smiled and greeted him.

On the other side of the U.S. representative, all of them looked surprised.
