Chapter 347 Outdoor autonomous obstacle avoidance and strike test
"Well~ If possible, I think the development of artificial intelligence still needs to be bottom-up. However, this route is too difficult and has been abandoned long ago. Now the little black assistant is only top-up.
It’s just a low-level AI.”
Artificial intelligence is divided into two types.
One is the top-down type, which refers to based on the existing computer system infrastructure, allowing a simple program that answers simple questions to slowly accumulate knowledge and experience, and make it close to real intelligence through learning, such as chatting
Robots fall into this category.
The other is the bottom-up type, which is a structure of biological organs connected by a slapstick version of the human template. It is commonly known as the biological intelligent brain. This type of AI is already at the same level as humans., p>
However, this route has long been abandoned and cannot be realized by the current level of human science and technology.
It is possible to achieve this only if it reaches at least the level of third-level civilization.
"Yeah, but intelligence has always been a tool for the development of human civilization. If the bottom-up artificial intelligence you mentioned is really developed, it is estimated that human society will also set off a huge wave of controversy." Liu Zhongchang nodded.<
/p>
"So, it is relatively easy to develop the top-down route now. That is, the learning algorithm, intelligent algorithm and hardware can only be continuously upgraded and optimized. Otherwise, it is just a chat robot and cannot achieve real AI.
degree."
Xu Li also expressed his thoughts.
After dinner, the three of them found a place to discuss some related academic issues, and Xu Li also benefited a lot.
The next morning
The formal outdoor autonomous obstacle avoidance and strike test is about to begin.
This time, two thousand drones were used for a comprehensive test, mainly shuttling through dense forests and autonomously avoiding obstacles, and at the same time accurately striking target puppets that had been set up.
The target doll is equipped with sensors. Once it is attacked by lasers or precision-guided bullets from these drones, the sensors mounted on it will be triggered and the data will be transmitted back to the command headquarters.
But when Xu Li came out, the weather didn't seem to be very good. The clouds in the sky seemed to be falling, and the wind was blowing.
"Professor Liu, can we still conduct tests normally in this weather?" he asked.
"I have asked testers to test the wind conditions. If there is no problem, it can proceed normally."
To be honest, this kind of windy weather also affects the testing of drones. Of course, as long as the wind force is not typhoon level, it will be fine.
But the most influential thing is the sandstorm. When encountering such weather, the test work can only be suspended.
At this time, Professor Liu's phone rang.
"Yeah, I understand." After saying that, he hung up.
"Proceed as normal. The weather station said the wind force has reached Level 4. If the wind force escalates by then, please withdraw the drone in time."
"That's fine." With that said, the two of them headed to the testing site.
Tian Yi also came to the test site early to conduct command and testing work.
"Professor Tian!"
"Old Tian!"
The two said hello to Tian Yi.
"You are here, Lao Liu, what did the weather monitoring station say?" Liu Zhong saw the two people arriving and asked instead.
"Proceed as normal. If the wind strengthens, we will start the return process at that time."
"Okay, everyone, get ready for testing! Soldiers must be vigilant and not allow any suspicious targets to approach. Once discovered, they will be dealt with immediately!"
"Yes!" The soldiers responded with loud voices.
After pressing the start button, the drones were divided into four clusters, and according to the set procedures, they flew to the dense forest below the airspace in batches.
On the big screen, you can see these drones flexibly dodging trees one after another, just like lightning birds flying quickly through the forest, but they did not encounter any obstacles.
Everyone was overjoyed to see this, after all, the independent obstacle avoidance was passed.
I tried it several times before but failed here, but now this problem has been overcome.
The next step is to carry out precise strikes in the forest.
There are many green dots on the screen, and these green dots represent target puppets.
The next moment these green dots suddenly turned red.
"Hit!"
At this time, some technicians shouted.
Xu Li looked over and saw on another screen a drone flying at high speed in the forest and locking on a target doll.
Bang!
The puppet emits a spark.
Most of the green dots on the screen quickly turned red.
After an intense three-hour test, all the puppet targets displayed on the screen were accurately hit.
"It's great, it finally worked!"
"Yes! We also have our own small autonomous combat drone! We have a greater advantage in the air!"
The two professors laughed.
Since the establishment of this project, there have been many problems, such as funding shortages, system defects, etc., but they have all come through.
Now that we have gotten over it, all the project participants present are happy for this.
"I will report the good news to the top next!"
Tian Yi said suddenly.
"This news must be reported to the superiors in time, and the leaders will probably come to observe by then!"
Liu Zhongchang nodded.
The next day, everyone was happy for the success of this project and held a celebration party.
The leaders of the military region were overjoyed when they heard the news. They immediately issued an order and held another observation test three days later to praise Xu Li and the others.
But Li did not participate in this experiment because he was still in a hurry to get back to the chip design.
Professor Liu originally planned to stay for some time, but Xu Li was of great help to them during this period.
But seeing Xu Li being so persistent, he had no choice but to ask Li Yuanlong to send him back.
After a long journey, we finally returned to Fengcheng.
Li Yuanlong took him back to school and reminded him before leaving to pay attention to personal safety.
After all, he is participating in the military's technology research and development experiment. If the person opposite knows about it, he will probably be blacklisted.
There is no airtight wall in the world, sooner or later it will be known.
However, Longguo's confidentiality measures are very strict and this news will not be leaked for a long time.
Xu Li hurriedly came to the laboratory.
"Principal, are you back?"
Li Mo was also surprised to see Xu Li coming back, so he stopped what he was doing.
"Well, I have something to do this time. By the way, how is the progress of completing our chip architecture?"
Xu Li didn't go into too much detail and instead asked.
"Mr. Ni is still presiding over this now. It is estimated that we will see our first NIL architecture chip in a week!"
"That's good. By the way, I also have a task for you."
