What is the difference between global self-research and full-stack self-research? In the view of Wu Cun, vice president of Zero Run Automobile, full-stack self-research means that the whole product only makes the software itself, excluding the hardware, so the software can't play the performance of all the hardware. Control hardware, hardware is the foundation. The so-called global self-research is to realize all independent research and development of software and hardware from the aspects of intelligent driving, intelligent cockpit and intelligent power system built at the bottom.
LEAPPOWER's "upgrade dimension" smart power technology just released by Zero Car, all hardware structures are independently developed, and all electronic related products use resistors. Other brands are more third parties, mainly doing applications and algorithms, not hardware. The background of zero car is Dahua, an intelligent Internet of Things solution provider, starting from the bottom. This is the difference. Zero-run cars believe that global self-research is the core of the future and the key to success.
The self-developed technology of zero sports car has obvious advantages. It is very convenient to connect all parts of the zero-run vehicle, and the camera and seat controller for face recognition on the vehicle are all their own. After recognizing the user ID, the face recognition camera can automatically adjust the seat and rearview mirror to the most comfortable position of the user and adjust the music to the user's preference. It is very convenient to achieve this effect when everything is fully investigated at the bottom. Now it seems that other companies can do it, but it will be slower because they need to communicate with suppliers.
In terms of OTA, almost everything on a zero-degree sports car can be upgraded through OTA. Including seat controller, rearview mirror controller, vehicle controller, motor, electronic control, etc. As long as there is software in the car, it can be an OTA. The advantage of "zero" is that all MCU used try to choose a brand, which is a series. Because the platform is the same, the upgrade is convenient. There is another point that must be praised. Now every off-line zero-running sports car is a 100% self-developed powertrain, and the total power of each zero-running sports car is the core component of 100% self-developed. At present, only three car companies in the world can do this.
At present, zero running has made breakthroughs in many fields. Among them, at the level of electric drive hardware, all products of Zero Run are equipped with self-developed powertrains. High-voltage oil-cooled flat wire motor, SiCSiC controller and two-speed transmission in electric drive technology are also developing in an orderly way. After that, the next generation full-scene AI intelligent electric drive with electric drive function AI self-diagnosis and electric drive life self-prediction will be launched.
Up to now, the number of electric drive patents for zero-run vehicles is far ahead, and the in-transit electric drive patents have been obtained and declared11,covering the widest patent technology field, among which the total number and proportion of algorithm patents are the first. Among them, in this year's Google Waymo202 1 Autopilot Algorithm Challenge, the zero-run algorithm team won the first place in the 2D measurement challenge; Since then, Zero Run C 1 1 has also been selected as one of the Top Ten Body Awards in China and won the "Best Structure Award". C 1 1 Water-cooled electric drive assembly won the top ten power systems of "China Heart" new energy vehicle in 20021year.
In fact, the cost of self-research in the world is very high, but the cost and technology of zero running have reached a balance. After mastering the core technology through global self-research, we can continuously upgrade and accumulate technology, and also continuously strengthen the reliability cost.
This stage is slow and steady. Once the scale is expanded in the future, it will be like snowballing. It is very small at first, but when the snowball rolls to a certain extent, it will be a very powerful potential energy, which will feed back the global self-research. It is related to cost and scale, that is to say, zero running has more advantages than many big car companies at this stage. At the same time, they optimized the connection between each device, making it more systematic and platform-oriented. With a real scale advantage in the future, zero-running will definitely have a deeper understanding and a better cost structure than most new energy vehicle companies.
The zero-run accumulated in the field of self-research and self-manufacture for many years has reached the stage of harvesting fruits, and this brand is one of the few vehicle manufacturers in the world with complete independent research and development capabilities and core technologies of smart electric vehicles after Tesla. At present, the zero-run brand has moved to the high-speed track of the new energy vehicle market, and the competition has entered the next round. A zero-run brand whose core technology is in its own hands will surely make a great difference.
