Zhang Yunfei: Intelligent ships will start a new era of marine economy
From December 10th to 11th, the 2019 CEO Summit and Cloud Hunting Venture Capital Awards Ceremony was grandly held at the Hyatt Regency Beijing Wangjing. Nearly 100 well-known capitalists, unicorn founders, entrepreneurial figures and nearly 1,000 investors People and entrepreneurs gather at the "New Forces · 2019 Annual CEO Summit & Cloud Hunting Venture Capital Awards Ceremony".
In the keynote speech "Building an Era of Offshore Intelligence with Unmanned System Technology," Zhang Yunfei, the founder and chairman of Yunzhou Intelligence, shared the current progress and achievements of Yunzhou Intelligence in unmanned boat technology research and development and industrial applications.
Established in 2010, Yunzhou Intelligence is China's first surface robot company focused on unmanned boat technology. It has successively captured a number of core key technologies such as autonomous navigation, perceived obstacle avoidance, collaborative control, and system integration for unmanned boats.
"The 21st century is the era of great development of the marine economy, and the intelligent boat industry is also experiencing rapid development. Yunzhou Intelligence is focused on using artificial intelligence technology to bring changes to traditional offshore operations," Zhang Yunfei said.
As the pioneer of Chinese unmanned boats, when Yunzhou Intelligent was founded, the field of unmanned boats in China was blank, and there were only two or three military companies engaged in military application research abroad. Under the leadership of Zhang Yunfei, Yunzhou Intelligence has successively conquered many core technologies of unmanned boats from 0 to 1, breaking the domestic gap and maintaining a global leading edge.
In terms of industrial application promotion, Yunzhou Intelligence spares no effort. From the launch of the world's first water sampling unmanned ship for water environment monitoring in 2013, to date, its unmanned boat applications have expanded from water environment supervision to marine detection, security and water rescue, smart ships, and many more. Field, gradually bringing traditional water operations into the era of intelligence and unmannedness.
In recent years, with the increase of product awareness, Yunzhou intelligent unmanned boats have become the backbone of national scientific research and emergency handling. He has participated in the execution of a number of national missions, including the Antarctic and Qinghai Lake scientific research, the Tianjin Port Big Bang, the Gansu Longxi tailings leakage accident, the Xiangshui "321" accident in Jiangsu, the Yangtze River sewage outfall investigation and rectification and other underwater operations. Detection, water quality monitoring and emergency rescue operations.
In December 2017, as the world's first unmanned boat to successfully complete operations in Antarctica, many unmanned boats such as the Yunzhou M80 marine exploration unmanned boat provided a lot of valuable data for the 34th Antarctic Examination.
Zhang Yunfei is the earliest person engaged in the research and entrepreneurship of unmanned boat technology in China. He has been at the forefront of the field of surface robots, promoted the innovation and industrialization of unmanned boat technology in China and the world, and initiated the technological change of water operations.
Zhang Yunfei mentioned that as an unmanned working platform on the water, to meet various mission requirements to replace traditional operating methods, it must deal with various extreme and complex operating environments, which places high requirements on the platform and control technology. Yunzhou Intelligence has been exploring innovation in this area and maintaining its advantages.
Intelligent shipping is an important development direction of the future shipping industry. Yunzhou Intelligence is the earliest in China and has achieved initial results.
On December 15th, the "Doudou Cloud 0" cargo ship developed by Yunzhou Intelligent, a subsidiary of Yunzhou Intelligent, officially set sail on Dong'ao Island, Zhuhai, successfully realizing the first cargo delivery, and officially launched the exploration and practice of autonomous navigation cargo ships.
It is reported that in December 2017, China Classification Society, Wuhan University of Technology, Zhuhai Municipal Government, and Yunzhou Intelligent jointly launched the "Some Doom Cloud" small unmanned cargo ship project at the Shanghai International Maritime Exhibition. In November 2019, "Doudou Cloud 0" was launched for delivery. In December, "Doudou Cloud 0" remote control and autonomous navigation tests were completed.
Zhang Yunfei revealed that in addition to using Zhuhai Wanshan unmanned ship offshore test field to develop autonomous navigation technology and test verification, it will also use the geographical advantages of the Greater Bay Area to gradually carry out autonomous navigation demonstrations and actively explore autonomous navigation ships Transport supplies and commercial applications in the marine field, intelligent ships will start a new era of marine economy.
In order to help entrepreneurs and investors regain their energy, in 2019, Lieyun.com unveiled a new brand, the New Force Summit. The summit was hosted by Lieyun.com, co-organized by Sharp Perspective, Lieyun Capital, Lieyun Finance, and Corporate Steward.
At this ceremony, Cloud Hunting will share the inspiring perspectives and industry perspectives of entrepreneurs and investors in smart manufacturing, entertainment, retail, medical, education, automotive and other fields through six sections, sharing technology around multiple dimensions With the industry's leading point of view, explore the trend of innovation trends and grasp new directions in the future.
