This paper conducts in-depth research on the future development goals, technical architecture, and implementation phases of smart trucks, discusses the concept of future intelligent development, and puts forward suggestions for the future development of smart trucks in China.
Future smart truck development goals

The author once heard in 2005 that certain European companies began to study the technology of “one person driving two cars”. The reason is that the human cost in Europe is very high and many young people do not want to work in trucks. At the time, these R&D processes were corporate secrets and were not disclosed to the public for a long time. The author did not dare to imagine what kind of scenario “one person is driving two cars” and how long the two vehicles should maintain the distance between cars. Suppose the vehicle in front of the vehicle is hit by an emergency brake. We are always accustomed to looking at the problem with a skeptical attitude, but we are afraid to try it. However, in 2015 many companies in Europe have already disclosed their own truck platooning technology. One vehicle is driving ahead. One or two cars can follow the car at a small distance to reduce the driving of the rear vehicles. The labor intensity of the staff reduces wind resistance of the rear vehicle to reduce fuel consumption and improve the efficiency of the entire team.

At present, European law does not allow "unmanned driving" in the true sense, so currently the rear vehicle is seated with a driver who is only responsible for the handling of emergencies. In April 2016, a car racing parade was held in Europe. The fleets of various brands have traveled safely for tens of thousands of kilometers to demonstrate to the industry and the government.

It is believed that after another five years, after the European law has been amended to allow vehicles to line up and drive without the driver, it is possible to realize the concept of “one person to open two cars” more than a decade ago. Therefore, the envisioning of a new technology to the final large-scale application requires a very long period of continuous research and trials by technicians.

Truck technology from the "dream" to "reality", before it takes 15 years or 10 years; believe that with the rapid development of science and technology, the future truck technology from the "dream" to "reality" only takes five years. Therefore, the author believes that Chinese truck companies should boldly plan and envision truck technology in the future. “Unforeseen, there is no way out.”

At the Beijing auto show that ended recently, Chinese self-owned brand truck companies are demonstrating production models, and none have shown concept cars. In contrast, Iveco presented a futuristic concept commercial vehicle that showcases many new design concepts. From this we can see that in terms of truck design concepts, future plans, smart architecture, etc., our truck companies are relatively backward, lacking original innovations and technological revolutions, all of which focus on the market to satisfy the market and have no real sense of leading the market. Development trend. The author conducts research on Mercedes-Benz's future heavy truck 2025 project. This project is a science and technology innovation project that lasted for more than 10 years and is divided into many phases. It implements the overall structure and distribution of passive safety, active safety, and smart technology. Mercedes-Benz trucks can always lead the development trend of the entire industry and become the benchmark for many companies.

The author believes that in the future, smart trucks should integrate philosophy, ethics, and other concepts into smart technologies, become human-friendly friends, and realize the concept of sharing, co-creation and win-win for people and vehicles. Trucks can “play” with human friendly. With this as the development goal, we will build a truck intelligent framework for the future, and then carry out the implementation in stages, and finally realize the dream of a truck with the concept of humanistic care. As long as you dare to imagine, five or ten years can be achieved.
Research on Future Intelligent Truck Architecture

The author first learned about the truck and loved the truck was originated in the United States, "Transformers", Optimus Prime brave, wisdom, courage to play the hero image is deeply imprinted in the author's heart, and the "car man" led by Optimus Prime can Fight with humans and protect humans with your own steel. The author conceives that the future truck can create a true "Optimus Prime." Many people in the industry think that the “unmanned” vehicle is the ultimate goal for the development of smart trucks. There is no need for drivers in the car. So what does the driver do? How to solve the driver's employment, how to enrich the driver's experience, how to create the driver's sense of accomplishment and social value? These need to be considered in the smart architecture of the truck in the future, the author thinks to drive away It is wrong for the driver to talk about the drone of the vehicle.

From the four aspects of “sharing, co-creation, win-win, and friendly play”, we will elaborate on the future intelligent truck architecture. First, “sharing” includes all information sharing and sharing of achievements. The motivation for motivating a person to keep moving forward is not “money” but a sense of “achievement.” This sense of achievement needs to be shared with all friends. Information sharing includes all vehicle driving information, road information, real-time monitoring information of cargo loading, self-inspection information of each vehicle system itself, and driver status information. Real-time sharing can be achieved among vehicles, drivers, and networking cloud platforms. In the past, we usually thought that people should understand the information of the vehicle. In the future, the vehicle should also understand the driver’s information. For example, the driver’s time for a drive, the time of rest, the time spent on the toilet, fatigue, etc. The vehicle can take care of the driver. When the driver is fatigued, he can “autonomously drive” according to the real-time traffic conditions, reduce the travel speed to ensure traffic safety, reduce noise, and create the most comfortable rest mode. When the vehicle is "birthday" and when the mileage reaches a multiple of 100,000 kilometers, the driver can achieve celebration together with the vehicle.

"Co-creation" means that vehicles and people work together to create social wealth. Currently, the “Drip” platform can realize the function of real-time taxiing. In the future, the vehicle networking cloud platform can realize the vehicle-cargo matching system and the vehicle can determine whether to accept orders. Vehicles will take full account of factors such as real-time road conditions, loading and unloading time, cargo logistics profitability, and so on. Their judgments are more accurate than humans and can create more social wealth at the same time.

"Win-win" means that both vehicles and people can maximize their profits, drivers can get the most generous salary and bonuses, vehicles can get the best maintenance and maintain the best driving conditions. Vehicles cause the least damage to the entire environment, the entire road system, pedestrians and other vehicles.

"Friendly play" means that vehicles can interact emotionally with people. At present, driving a truck is a very boring industry. It is usually one person on a short-distance trip. Usually two people on long-distance trips open. Drivers lack emotional communication and often cause drivers to have road despair. According to the person's mood, the vehicle can “talk to the mind” to chat with the driver and become the driver’s “intimate friend”. The control of speed is the desire of human instinct. On certain stimulating sections, the vehicle can satisfy the driver’s desire to control while ensuring safety, and enjoy driving while driving.

Future smart truck hardware and software facilities

From the perspective of “sharing”, it is necessary to achieve real-time sharing among vehicles, drivers, and networking cloud platforms, including GPS positioning, digital maps, big data analysis, dynamic trajectory calculation, and risk assessment. All vehicles and pedestrians are equipped with GPS as road terminals. Vehicles and pedestrians' information is transmitted to the Vehicular Cloud Network platform. At the same time, real-time information outside the line of sight is received, and each pedestrian and every vehicle is immediately subjected to security risks during sports. Assessment, early warning of risk and driving interventions to ensure safe driving.

In the future, it is necessary to clearly and legally disclose the GPS information of pedestrians and vehicles, but the Vehicular Cloud Network platform will strictly keep all information confidential. At present, GPS positioning is only two-dimensional positioning information, and it does not realize three-dimensional positioning information. It will inevitably cause many problems in the three-dimensional traffic section. According to the latest technological developments, GPS height positioning is being resolved. The solution is to install height recognition devices in the three-dimensional traffic area. For example, in the Beijing Capital Airport Terminal 3, a height identification device is installed at multiple locations, and the GPS can identify which floor of the vehicle is the parking floor, the arrival floor on the second floor, and the departure floor on the third floor. The hardware and software sharing information, the cloud networking platform for the vehicle networking should be unified by the country to formulate standards and implementation plans, determine the standard interface of hardware and software, and the software and hardware of the vehicle terminal should be designed and installed by the truck company. Due to the large number of vehicles and people in some dense areas, it will inevitably lead to information processing and information transmission speeds will be reduced. It is necessary to build a very powerful "cloud platform."

From the point of view of "co-creation" and "win-win", a very intelligent vehicle-to-vehicle matching system must be designed to predict the road conditions under future multi-task situations. For example, a long-distance truck carrying 30 tons is usually judged by the driver to undertake only two tasks, that is, loading from A, one day to B, unloading and waiting for one day to reload and transport to C; The vehicle-cargo matching system can be more precise and capable of undertaking four tasks, namely, loading cargo from A, taking a certain high-speed arrival in 16 hours, unloading goods for 4 hours, resting for 5 hours, and then loading and transporting goods to C. , D, F, and so on. The key technology here is to be able to predict the status of roads, and it is necessary to carry out big data statistical analysis on the road traffic information of the main roads in the country and to predict road congestion information. Based on this information, the vehicle can determine the future driving plan on its own, transport more goods at the same time, improve the transportation efficiency of the entire country, and at the same time give the driver a very lucrative income.

From the perspective of “friendly play”, a very smart vehicle entertainment system should be designed to judge the driver’s mood, communicate with the driver to appease the driver’s emotions, and integrate human behavior into the vehicle. Smart technology. For example, when a driver has road rage, the driver will often slam on the accelerator, slam on the brakes, turn hard, swear, and chase each other. The vehicle can give the driver enough care and can give the driver a very relaxed rest environment. When the driver has the desire to control driving, the vehicle selects certain sections to meet the needs of the driver.

Future smart truck implementation path

At present, many scholars believe that vehicle “autonomous driving” is the ultimate goal, and the development of smart cars should be divided into four stages: first, weak assisted driving; second, strong assisted driving; third, under certain conditions Autonomous driving in restricted areas; Fourth, autonomous driving under multiple operating conditions. The author believes that autonomous driving is only a part of smart cars and is the basis of the smart architecture of trucks in the future. It should be subdivided into four stages of “pre-autonomous driving” and two stages of “post-autonomous driving”.

Four stages before “autonomous driving”: In the first stage, weak assisted driving is based on active safety of existing vehicles, using various detection radars to provide drivers with more information to assist the driver in driving safely. For example, lane departure warning systems, blind area detection systems, etc. However, the vehicle is still operated by the driver, and the assisted driving system does not participate in the specific operation of the vehicle. In the second stage, the strong assisted driving is based on the first stage. Before the accident of the vehicle is about to occur, the intelligent system determines that the vehicle is about to collide. , The momentary mandatory operation of the vehicle to avoid traffic accidents. Such as AEB vehicle emergency braking system, ESC vehicle stability system. When the vehicle is running normally, it is still operated by the driver. Only when the specific emergency situation is active safety system is involved in the specific operation of the vehicle. The third stage is the “autonomous driving” in the restricted area under some conditions, and with the development of GPS technology. And car networking technology, in some areas under certain conditions, by the vehicle to "autonomous driving" to reduce the driver's labor intensity, but the driver is still prepared to handle emergency situations in the seat; the fourth phase, under multiple operating conditions "Autonomous driving." That is, based on the sum of the above three phases, the vehicle can be "autonomously driven" under a variety of speeds and a variety of road conditions.

The two stages of “autonomous driving” belong to the category of smart technology ecosystem: The fifth stage is to realize the interconnection between vehicles and vehicles, build a cloud networking platform for vehicles, and realize cloud platforms for vehicles, drivers, and car networking. Real-time sharing can be achieved among the three; at present, certain parts of Europe have been piloted, and the relative working conditions are still very simple, because there are few vehicles and pedestrians in urban roads, and in some complex areas of China, pedestrians How to manage the behavioral norms, how to train the driver's behavioral norms, how to formulate the "rules of the game," and how to quantify and implement the violation costs, all need to be fully considered.

The sixth stage: to create human intelligence technology for vehicles to achieve “create, win, and play” with the drivers. This involves human behavior, human ethics, human thinking patterns, philosophy, and so on. It turns the vehicle into a “close friend” with the driver’s understanding and suffering. The intelligent system of the vehicle itself can have a learning function, that is, it can perform big data analysis on all collected information, draw some rules, and automatically update its own intelligent system.

It must be admitted that the current technological development speed and acceleration are very fast. With the development of virtual reality technology, intelligent 3D design can be realized, planning, designing and verifying in a virtual environment, and being able to be personalized under the manufacturing system of Industry 4.0. produce. It is understood that many foreign companies are vigorously researching advanced technologies. These technologies provide technical reserves for products after ten years or even fifteen years. It is particularly important for the product technology planning and construction in the early stage. Mercedes Benz, MAN, and VOLVO in Europe are all researching their own concept cars and are carrying many cutting-edge technologies. Innovation is the soul of a nation's progress. China's self-owned brand truck companies must boldly innovate and boldly attempt to lead the industry's development trend in the atmosphere of smart technology in order to occupy a larger market share.
