Daguo Science and Technology started from the copycat system

After that, there is the energy issue. This energy issue is also a problem that troubles us very much, because the current energy density is the highest in ternary lithium batteries.

This thing can barely meet our needs, but its manufacturing cost is very high, and its safety is too poor, and there is a certain possibility of spontaneous combustion.

Although other lithium iron phosphate batteries are safer, their energy density is too low. As for other lithium cobalt oxide batteries, their energy density is average and not very safe.

In general, the problems we encounter in energy are not small and require a lot of energy to solve them. "

Hearing Ni Guangnan talk about the current problems he was encountering, everyone at the scene felt a little headache.

It has to be said that following Ni Guangnan's explanation, they discovered that this home robot did not seem to be easy to produce. If the problems mentioned by Ni Guangnan were not solved, the home robot might never be able to be launched.

"Sure enough, should we still focus on industrial robots? With humanity's current technology, perhaps we should first develop industrial robots for various purposes with lower requirements for body size and lifespan."

The person who expressed frustration at this time was Chen Dong, the person in charge of Sugon Manufacturing and Sugon Electronics.

After hearing Ni Guangnan's words, he no longer had any confidence in home robots. He felt that home robots might not be commercialized in a few years or more.

"I also think we should focus on industrial robots, or directly lower the goal of home robots, such as directly abandoning the human form and adopting a structure with a large shell and arms."

Professor Zhang Rujing, head of Sugon Semiconductor, also expressed his views.

"I feel the same way."

Huang Hua also expressed his opinion.

Then other people at the scene expressed their opinions one after another, and they all had little confidence in home robots.

I think they should probably lower the difficulty of development, not necessarily pursue humanoid shapes, and not necessarily require home robots to do so many things. They should reduce the capabilities of home robots.

Or they think that the number of R\u0026D personnel and R\u0026D funds for home robots should be reduced, and the focus should be on developing industrial robots first, etc.

It can be said that in their minds, home robots are unlikely to be implemented in a few years, and they should focus on other things first.

“No, we cannot give up on home robots, because home robots are the sharpest knife we ​​hold in our hands in the future.

Moreover, once the material and energy problems encountered by home robots are solved, the benefits will probably be as much as the combined profits of the mobile phone and computer industries. "

Faced with a depressed mood, Lin Chen said something completely different from the people at the scene, which made everyone at the scene slightly stunned.

It is true that it is very difficult to solve the many problems currently faced by home robots. In theory, it may take several years or more than ten years to complete the development of home robots.

After all, materials are not something you can develop if you want to. The birth of materials is inevitable and accidental. The money required to develop materials is enough to make your heart ache.

But all this was without Lin Chen personally participating in the research and development.

If Lin Chen personally participated in research and development, with the ten virtual clones of the virtual laboratory plus the virtual laboratory's ability to copy refresh equipment and copy the latest status at no cost.

Under such circumstances, if Lin Chen engaged in material research and development, it would be like a mouse falling into a rice vat. He would have found the right major.

Therefore, Lin Chen is very confident in solving the problems of materials and energy.

Of course, let’s not talk about the material problems, just work hard to develop suitable alloys. As for the energy problem, Lin Chen’s goal is also very big.

Because Lin Chen recalled the problems of electric cars and the rising gas prices in Daxia in his previous life.

In his previous life, the price of automobile oil was already so high. The average price of 92-proof gasoline was 8 yuan per liter. Lin Chen couldn't help complaining that it was impossible to live with such high oil prices.

Of course, this is an exaggeration. In his previous life, Lin Chen, who worked as a core R\u0026D staff member at Bitti Automobile, was not so poor that he could not afford to fill up on gas.

The reason why Lin Chen complained so much was because he believed that the proportion of monthly transportation expenses was too high, to the point of being unreasonable.

In his previous life, Lin Chen's daily commute to get off work was up to 25 kilometers. In addition to running the air conditioner and traffic jams, his car's average fuel consumption was as high as 10 liters per 100 kilometers, and the monthly fuel cost alone reached 600 yuan.

600 yuan is not a small amount. If you add a little more to this amount, you can buy a low-end Redmi phone. Of course, in fact, Lin Chen's monthly gas expenses are not 600 yuan, but thousands of yuan.

Because Lin Chen's car is not only used for commuting to and from get off work, but also for visiting the park or shopping somewhere, which adds up to thousands of yuan in gas money a month.

The cost of gas is as high as thousands of yuan every month. Lin Chen in his previous life could not help but have the thought of selling his fuel car and replacing it with an electric car from his old employer BYAD. However, before Lin Chen could actually switch to an electric car, Lin Chen Just traveled through time.

At this time, electric cars had not yet been born. Although there were physical products, they were only prototype products.

Lin Chen thought that he might be able to steal the electric car business of his old employer BYD in this life.

After all, it is not a difficult problem for Lin Chen to develop electric vehicles or even fully autonomous electric vehicles.

In terms of overall automobile technology, Sugon Motors is world-famous. Its annual output is as high as 15 million units. It has been developing autonomous driving technology for a long time, and it is said that the results are almost there.

As for self-driving chips, the current first-generation memristor chip has been designed, and there is no problem in using it in cars.

It can be said that the problem that hinders Sugon Technology from producing fully autonomous electric vehicles is actually the problem of motors and batteries. Other technologies are not a problem for Sugon Technology.

Of course, motors are not a problem for Lin Chen. In his previous life, he worked for BYU Automobile, and he knew BYAD Automobile's flat wire motors very well.

So in fact, the only thing that hinders Lin Chen is the energy problem. As long as Lin Chen solves the energy problem, he can directly develop and produce his own fully autonomous electric car!

As for how to solve the energy problem, Lin Chen decided to start with ternary lithium batteries. After all, although lithium iron phosphate batteries are safe, their energy density is too low.

Although in the previous life, the old employer BYD Automobile developed the blade battery, which can be regarded as a new lease of life for lithium iron phosphate batteries.

But its energy density is still too low, and in the long run, it simply cannot meet the needs of Sugon Technology.

In addition, lithium iron phosphate batteries have a fatal flaw. This flaw is that if lithium iron phosphate batteries want to achieve the power of ternary lithium batteries, they need to pay a larger volume, and the volume must be increased by more than 80%.

Therefore, lithium iron phosphate batteries are not suitable for Sugon Technology. After all, the battery must be installed on a humanoid home robot, so naturally the battery cannot be too large.
