CES Consumer Electronics Show opens, Sony builds cars and Toyota builds cities. What else is unexpected?

Technology has changed our lives, and electronic products have become a part of our lives. 654381October 7, 2020CES Consumer Electronics Show opened in Las Vegas, USA, and the "black technology" exhibited by major manufacturers also created a new round of topic craze. The auto-related technologies in this exhibition are naturally the focus of Bian Xiao's attention. The current car winter has lasted for two years. I wonder what surprises the car companies brought us at this exhibition?

Sony electric concept car

Although Daihatsu's main business is not building cars, in addition to heavy 3C products such as PS5, Sony made a "surprise attack" at the end of this exhibition, and brought you a car named Vision-S electric concept car without leaking any news at all. Vision-S adopts a slip-back design, with penetrating LED headlights at the front and rear, eliminating the decorative air intake grille, which is more scientific and technological. In addition to having an oversized panoramic sunroof, Sony? Vision-S also adopts non-traditional rearview mirror design, highlighting technology and design aesthetics. For many people, Sony? Vision-S concept car has the charm of Porsche.

This Vision-S prototype embodies Sony's vision and technological evolution of future automotive technology. Vision-S has more than 33 different specifications of sensors inside and outside the car, and there are many wide-screen displays with full sense of technology in the car. Sony said that Vision-S will not be mass-produced. It is just a display platform equipped with a series of Sony's latest technologies. At present, the car should only display Sony's latest sensors, monitors and audio systems.

Toyota woven? City: Smart City

Unlike Sony, which unexpectedly brought the first concept car, Toyota, as a car company, did not have an auto show. At this Consumer Electronics Show, Toyota showed its vision for the future. It is reported that Toyota will build a future travel demonstration city in Ueno City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. "Zhihui City" covers an area of about 7,654,380+0,000 square meters, and will start construction after the closure of Toyota Azumafuji factory. In Zhihui City, electricity will be provided by hydrogen fuel cells, and the solar cell system on the roof of the building will also provide part of the electricity supply; Roads will only be provided for self-driving cars and zero-emission cars, such as the e-Palette released by Toyota not long ago, which will become the main means of transportation in Zhicheng; Initially, 2000 people will live here. Akio Toyoda said that a smart city is not only his personal dream, but also represents Toyota's determination to transform into a mobile travel service provider.

Nissan: Lightweight Super Sound Insulation Material

"Big sofa" has become the label of Nissan in the eyes of domestic consumers, which shows Nissan's technical accumulation in seats and NVH. At this CES Consumer Electronics Show, Nissan brought a super sound insulation material composed of crystal structure and plastic film, which can effectively control air vibration, reduce the spread of broadband noise (500- 1200Hz) generated when vehicles are driving on the road and the engine is working. In addition, the weight is reduced by 75% compared with traditional sound insulation materials without changing the sound insulation effect.

The super sound insulation materials exhibited by Nissan this time are light in weight, and the production cost is almost the same as that of traditional sound insulation materials, which is suitable for vehicles limited by cost or body net weight. For ordinary cars, this material can make the body lighter, help to improve energy efficiency and economy, improve driving experience and reduce the impact of vehicles on the environment.

Honda enhancement? Driving? Concept intelligent driving concept car

Honda, the three major Japanese companies, brought the name Augmented at this CES Consumer Electronics Show. Driving? Concept's concept car is different from other concept cars that emphasize the automatic driving function. Enhance? Driving? Concept focuses on how to enjoy driving on self-driving cars. I have to say that the ideas of several Japanese companies are different.

Enhance? Driving? Concept has multiple sensors and cameras to judge the driver's intention, so as to realize seamless switching between automatic driving and semi-automatic driving. The steering wheel of a car concentrates all the control functions of the car, and the driver can start the car only by patting the steering wheel twice. The operation of pulling backward to slow down and pushing forward to accelerate is similar to that of airplane driving. It is reported that the car has eight driving modes. For those who still want to experience speed and passion after the popularity of autonomous driving, this concept car will be the best choice.

BMW: Enjoy life.

BMW brought us several surprises at this CES Consumer Electronics Show. First, BMW released a vision? BMW? Me? Interaction? EASE autopilot concept cockpit has applied many black technologies, such as eye tracking system, artificial intelligence (AI), panoramic head-up display system and smart glass. It is understood that in 20021year, the first batch of functions in the concept cockpit of BMW autopilot human-computer interaction will be carried on BMW? INEXT production model. BMW? INEXT production model will be the first production car equipped with 5G technology. BMW and Samsung will jointly develop a new generation of 5G telematics module to equip it. INEXT will realize the 5G network connection through the built-in SIM card, which means that even if drivers and passengers do not carry separate 5G devices (smart phones, etc.). ), they can also enjoy the "carefree feeling" brought by 5G in the car.

Next is ZeroG? Lounge chair zero gravity seat. According to the official introduction, ZeroG? Lounger's zero-gravity seat can lean back 40 or 60 degrees according to its own comfort, achieving a nearly flat posture. In addition, the seat is equipped with a cocoon-shaped airbag, which can provide peripheral protection for passengers in the event of an accident. It is reported that this is the first time that BMW has provided comfortable seats with the function of lying flat and relaxing in the car. It will be mass-produced in the next few years and will be the first to be applied to BMW X7.

BMW? i3? City? Suite is also really eye-catching. The new car is based on the ordinary version of i3, and the interior is transformed into a more luxurious "boss seat" design. This car will show BMW's forward-looking concept in travel and bring the future travel experience into reality. Compared with the regular version, the new car sets the seat behind the co-pilot as a wide boss seat, cancels the seats behind the co-pilot and the main driver, and sets a leg trailer at the co-pilot position. At the same time, on the left side of the passenger seat is a large-area table board, equipped with a desk lamp and a cup holder, which can be used as a desk.

Mercedes-Benz Visual AVTR

According to Mercedes-Benz, vision? Inspired by the movie Avatar, the AVTR concept car adopts the overall design concept, integrating the appearance, interior and user experience. Vision? The AVTR concept car adopts the design of immersive experience space, and the multifunctional control center and its components on the center console replace the traditional steering wheel, so passengers can intuitively choose different functions through real-time 3D images. In addition to bringing the experience of truly perceiving the external environment, vision? AVTR also has the highlights of sustainable battery technology and sustainable body materials, which also expresses Mercedes-Benz's future vision of sustainable travel, resource conservation and man-machine coexistence.

Bosch: artificial intelligence technology

At this year's CES Consumer Electronics Show, the virtual sun visor brought by Bosch won the best innovation award. After the traditional sun visor is lowered, it can block the dazzling light for the driver, but it will also block part of the line of sight. Bosch solved the problem of blocking the line of sight with transparent LCD screen. The driver's line of sight position is monitored by connecting the in-vehicle monitoring camera, and the position information is analyzed by intelligent algorithm. According to the path of sunlight or other light sources entering the driver's eyes through the windshield, the corresponding parts on the display screen are dimmed. After that, the rest of the screen will remain transparent and will not hinder the driver's line of sight.

Bosch also brought a brand-new 3D display screen, which uses passive 3D technology to generate realistic 3D effects and alarm signals. Compared with traditional display screen, 3D display screen can help drivers capture visual information faster and reduce distractions. In addition, Bosch's new 3D display is equipped with passive 3D technology, which can be used without drivers and passengers wearing 3D glasses or using visual tracking technology.

Bosch said at the exhibition that by 2025, every product of Bosch will have artificial intelligence function, or use artificial intelligence technology in the development and production process.

Summary:

In the auto part of this CES Consumer Electronics Show, almost all industry-leading auto companies and suppliers have brought technologies related to autonomous driving and visions for the future development of smart cars, so that the audience can personally experience the convenience brought by artificial intelligence technology for travel, and also let us feel that the plot in the movie is not far from our lives. In addition, it can be seen that the number of China car companies and related enterprises participating in CES is gradually decreasing, and the first show in North America opened by Baiteng M-Byte at this exhibition is mostly a presence. I don't know what suggestions friends in the comment area have for future travel.
