Luo Kai shook his head again and again, then looked at Wu Hao very seriously and said, "No, you are not naïve, let alone immature. Rather, you have great ambitions, a sense of national and national mission and responsibility that many people lack.

Your enthusiasm has not been in vain, what you have done and your heart have all been seen in our eyes, in the eyes of leaders and leaders, and in the eyes of the people of the whole country.

Don't be discouraged, and don't give up. Believe that there are many people who are standing behind you, watching you and supporting you. ”

At the end of the break, everyone was seated again, and the meeting resumed.

And this time, as if everyone had forgotten about the dispute and unpleasantness just now, they all focused on the project.

Academician Tang Shizhen brought his reading glasses and began to operate the PPT with the assistance of his assistant.

"It doesn't matter which control method we choose, whether it's remote control technology, automatic control technology, or a combination of both.

All automatic control technologies have a premise, that is, the platform must be sufficiently automated, digital, and intelligent.

In layman's terms, the aircraft type targeted must be advanced enough and have strong dynamic perception.

Otherwise, even if our intelligent unmanned driving system is advanced, we can't do it on old models like Y-5 or Y-7.

The control of these aircraft is completely based on mechanical power transmission, or even pure mechanical transmission control. It is simply impossible to modify these aircraft.

Therefore, I think it is very appropriate for Deputy Director Qi to use the MA700 as our modification experimental platform. ”

Speaking of which, Academician Tang Shizhen changed a PPT, which showed a picture of a MA700 aircraft during the flight.

"Although this MA700 regional airliner is advanced enough and the digital flight control system also meets our requirements, it is not enough for our project, it lacks the dynamic perception of the outside world that we need.

The so-called dynamic perception ability refers to the ability of the aircraft to obtain information from the outside world, including the radar on the aircraft, various flight sensors, such as airspeedometer, altimeter, level, and barometer.

Even some surveillance cameras on the outside of the aircraft, as well as radio receivers, are important components of the dynamic perception system.

The external data transmitted back by these data will assist the pilot to control the aircraft and meet the needs of the pilot to fly the aircraft.

But this is far from enough for our intelligent unmanned driving system.

First of all, the system is not human, and there are no sensory organs in the human body, such as sight, touch, hearing, smell, and the most important of which should be rapid sight and hearing.

The system, on the other hand, needs to accept this data through a variety of devices.

In fact, in the process of flying in the air, most of them rely on radar to observe the situation ahead, and rarely directly use visual vision. Visual vision is generally used for take-off and landing, as well as some emergency situations.

Of course, I'm talking here about civil airliners and transport aircraft, and fighter jets are not among them.

This is not to say that visual vision is not important, in fact, it is very important, especially when dealing with some emergency situations, as well as take-off and landing, which requires pilots to have sharp visual observation skills.

The same is true for systems, which also need to have superior visual capabilities. ”

"In this regard, we have a wide range of synthetic aperture radar and photoelectric pods used in UAVs, and the technology in this area is very mature, and we can directly install it on the aircraft." Director Song of the test flight center chimed in.

——————

Academician Tang Shizhen put down the teacup in his hand, then nodded and said, "Yes, but it's not enough." This kind of optoelectronic pod can meet the needs of general small UAVs or aircraft, but cannot meet the needs of medium and large aircraft. For example, the large body of medium-sized and large aircraft can block the large field of view of such photoelectric pods, resulting in incomplete observations.

No matter how advanced the optoelectronic observation equipment is, there is still a difference between them and what we see with the real human eye.

Therefore, if you want to achieve automatic control or remote control, the problem of vision must be solved first.

In this regard, we have set up a special research group for photoelectric observation systems, and they have come up with a preliminary design proposal.

That is, a number of photoelectric observation devices are installed at different positions on the whole aircraft to facilitate the system and our remote pilots to better control the dynamic data information. ”

A PPT was immediately replaced on the big screen, which showed a MA700 regional airliner, and it was marked in different positions.

Looking at the annotated information on the picture, Director Song of the test flight center shook his head and raised his opinion: "I don't think there is any need to be so complicated, everyone thinks it's too complicated."

The acquisition of data does not necessarily require so many optoelectronic observation equipment, in fact, we can completely rely on some sensors to solve these problems.

For example, take-off and landing, these can be obtained through the relevant sensors. For example, a key data in take-off and landing is speed.

Whether it's take-off or landing, it's all about controlling the speed. When taking off, you need to be fast enough for the plane to fly off the runway.

When landing, the speed needs to be slow enough for the plane to land smoothly.

At present, the take-off and landing technology of UAVs is also very mature, and even some UAVs have achieved autonomous take-off and landing.

In this regard, we can learn from this technology, and it is not necessary to write according to the human mindset. ”

Wu Hao nodded with a smile when he heard this, and then immediately said: "I agree with Director Song's words, it is right to fully obtain dynamic data information outside the plane, but there is no need to be so complicated.

On the one hand, it is easy to increase costs, and on the other hand, the more devices there are, the more complex the system, and the more prone it is to failure.

In terms of photoelectric observation technology, we also have some unique achievements. For example, the intelligent image recognition technology we use on various types of drones is very suitable for acting as the 'eyes' of drones.

This technology can very clearly identify the data information in the observation image of the optoelectronic device and process it accordingly, which can fully meet the needs of our project. ”

Hearing Wu Hao's words, Director Song looked at Wu Hao and said: "I have also heard about your image recognition technology for a long time. ”

No problem, I'll go back and have someone sort out a detailed information and send it to you. Wu Hao nodded with a smile.
