The machining center and turning center being adjusted over there are provided by Liuyi Numerical Control to complete the manufacturing of parts with high precision and complex shapes.
"This is where we work on sensors. Not to boast, but Leapfrog has put great effort into self-developed sensors. Fearing being choked by supply restrictions, we established an independent sensor R&D institute. Honestly, our strength is indeed considerable.
Apart from the basic 3D vision and image processing, we also have force-sensitivity, torque sensors, inertial accelerometers, gyroscopes, tactile units with touch sensors and force transmission, as well as magnetic and inclination sensors responsible for posture, and so on. All of these were designed by our research institute and then produced by our partner units.
Let me put it this way, except for cameras, LIDAR, and ultrasonics, which we purchased directly due to the high completeness of domestic products, all other sensors are self-developed by our sensor R&D institute."
"This is the testing workshop, where robot prototypes are tested. Our testing workshop also ranks well nationwide; many labs send their samples here specifically for our report generation. Explore stories on freewebnovel
Electrical systems, mechanical structures, sensors, control units, interaction units, performance, safety...and so on. We’ve also set up a complete set of industry-specific testing systems for welding robots."
From the moment he entered the industrial park, Lu Zhongguo was like a changed man, talking non-stop.
He wasn’t good at hyping specific products.
But when it came to explaining these devices and their functions in the factory to laymen, he was extremely proficient.
Most importantly, Qiao Ze gave him a pretty good impression.
Unlike what he had imagined, Qiao Ze didn’t ask any questions or give any directives during the factory tour.
On the contrary, he could tell that Qiao Ze seemed quite satisfied with his introduction and listened intently.
On the other hand, the two young ladies following Qiao Ze chattered on about trivial things, seemingly engrossed in their own conversation.
And clearly, they weren’t much interested in the machines he treasured so dearly.
This, in fact, made him feel at ease.
So, after spending the entire morning, Lu Zhongguo took the three visitors around the whole industrial park, touring every workshop. After emerging from the industrial park, he didn’t know what else to say.
To be honest, he wasn’t sure whether Qiao Ze was satisfied with their capabilities after the tour.
He also didn’t know what products Qiao Ze came here to purchase.
Without any cue, he couldn’t even start his sales pitch.
It was now just eleven o’clock. It seemed too early to take the three guests to lunch, as the cafeteria hadn’t even opened its doors yet. So now...
Just as Lu Zhongguo was about to ask about Qiao Ze’s subsequent arrangements, Qiao Ze spoke first, "Find a place with a computer."
"Oh, okay. Let’s head back to the R&D building then, to my office? Though it’s a bit small."
"It’s fine."
...
Lu Zhongguo’s office was indeed small, at about eight square meters, with only a desk and two chairs.
Fortunately, the two girls showed no interest in the upcoming discussion between the two men; as soon as they entered the building, the receptionist, who had received an early notice, took the young ladies to the entertainment area to rest.
Liu Ying felt she should probably stay with Qiao Ze.
However, Su Mucheng advised her not to disturb Qiao Ze while he was discussing business, so she decided to heed that advice.
She was only following the two men around because of the orders from Su Mucheng. If the team leader had any objections, he could take it up with Su.
Mainly, Liu Ying didn’t know that the team leader had already started preparing to become an instructor at the place she came from; otherwise, she would have probably hesitated for a second before happily following Su away.
After all, one should take good advice when it’s given.
...
In the office, Qiao Ze used Lu Zhongguo’s computer and quickly downloaded about thirty GB of drawings.
"I want to order a robot body like this; can you manufacture it?"
"Ah? Custom made?" Lu Zhongguo was a bit surprised, but soon began to look through the drawings Qiao Ze had downloaded.
After a glance at the exterior design, Lu Zhongguo wondered, "Isn’t this Bean Bean?"
"Bean Bean?"
"Yes, erm... haven’t you watched The Wandering Earth 2? This looks very similar to the transport robot called Bean Bean in the movie. Except for the lower tracks, oh, the tracks are detachable... I remember there seem to be models for sale like this, right?"
Qiao Ze slightly shook his head; he hadn’t seen The Wandering Earth, and these design and part drawings weren’t done by him.
The one most concerned with his first body was obviously Dou Dou itself.
From the exterior to the detailed designs, all had been completed by Dou Dou.
Particularly after acquiring material models, its database had recently gathered many material parameters that were then used in the design of the parameters of this body.
As a pioneering product of artificial intelligence, Dou Dou was also very pragmatic.
It knew that humanoid robots were not the best fit for its capabilities at the current stage.
So it designed a form on its own.
Qiao Ze had reviewed Dou Dou’s design philosophy the previous evening and found it sensible.
Unexpectedly, Dou Dou had directly referenced a design from a movie.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is frёeωebɳovel.com.
But this likely indicated that the movie’s model designers had consulted industry professionals during its creation.
"I haven’t seen The Wandering Earth; just see if you can make it first." Qiao Ze said.
"Wait a moment." Lu Zhongguo answered and began to carefully flip through the images one by one.
