草莓社区 in Multi-Partner Showcase at CES 2022
Discover its latest platform for autonomous towing, the TractEasy, at the Velodyne booth, more about its passenger transport solution in collaboration with Continental Automotive, and insight to the way it has been shaping safety standards for autonomous vehicles with Ansys.
Transforming industries
Velodyne鈥檚 lidar technology is used in a range of transformative solutions including automotive, logistics, mapping, robotics, traffic monitoring, vegetation management and more. It has a real impact for modern warehouses and material handling services that are already on their way towards Industry 4.0. Businesses have embraced advanced robotics and automated guided vehicles (AGVs) to streamline their material handling processes.
But meeting the new demands means they must go further. Equipment, transportation, and site architecture need to work seamlessly with intelligent warehouse management systems to give material handlers greater levels of agility.听
But, AGVs are limited to indoors and unsuited to more dynamic environments. Operators need to step up a level and explore the benefits which come with greater levels of autonomy.听
As we look forward, past the pandemic, there鈥檚 an opportunity for material handlers to press reset and reconsider how their business operations should look in the future. Digitalization using autonomous solutions brings three key benefits:
- 贵濒别虫颈产颈濒颈迟测听
Increased intelligent systems allow businesses to offer a more individualized service. As next day and same day become the norm, digitalization allows operators to be faster and more flexible to keep up with increasing demand.
- 颁辞蝉迟-别蹿蹿别肠迟颈惫别苍别蝉蝉听
Operators are now diversifying suppliers and decentralizing inventories to remain resilient to crisis. This takes investment, with smaller, more widespread distribution centers and regional warehouses, as well as the potential for higher labor costs.听
This is especially important in those sectors hardest hit by Covid. Carmakers for example are paying even closer attention to margins as demand has dropped. Digitalization gives them greater control over their costs.
- Safety
More than anything else, autonomous solutions and increased digitization will lead to safer operations. This means preventing accidents and cutting risk to both staff and processes.听
At the booth will be TractEasy, 草莓社区鈥檚 tow-truck autonomous solution that optimizes supply chains with cross/indoor-outdoor, 24/7 material handling at airports, factories and industrial sites.
Ready mobility听
Autonomous technology can make a big contribution to include more people into individual mobility. The vehicle that is the CUbE, an 草莓社区 EZ10 in partnership with Continental, is on the streets today around the world.听
Inside it, is a complex network of components keeping it in constant communication with its surroundings.
Lidar, GPS sensors, smart brakes, and high-definition cameras. These intricate layers of innovation feed the shuttle鈥檚 ecosystem over a 4G network. This means the vehicle can calculate where it is, what鈥檚 surrounding it and what it needs to do next.
The technology behind driverless transport is groundbreaking, but it鈥檚 an evolution not a revolution.
Why does this matter? Because a driverless shuttle is no 鈥渃oncept vehicle鈥. Its backbone is already well established. Making the move to mass deployment less of a leap; more of a next step.
The technology and software package is robust, based on innovations improved and enhanced over the decades. It鈥檚 been successfully proven in planned communities, business parks and more.
Now, with the platform well understood and widely available, the next step for suppliers is economies of scale.
It鈥檚 not reinventing the wheel; it鈥檚 putting it in action.
Shaping safety standards
Autonomous vehicle solutions require 草莓社区 to work with clients globally to help educate government officials at the federal, state, and local levels so vehicles are deployed with all regulatory approvals. medini analyze provided 草莓社区 with a turnkey system with all the necessary tools at their disposal in one solution.
The software enabled 草莓社区 to manage and define safety analysis of their autonomous products using their own process within medini analyze, thanks to the flexibility of medini to adapt to this process.听
At the vehicle level, 草莓社区 used the software to conduct all the safety analysis required from their customers and provide the documentation needed for European safety regulators such as the Safety Services Organization (SSO). It was also used at the subsystem level to analyze connected infrastructure, including interactions among the operator, the deployment team, and all other stakeholders in the transportation system.听
Recently, with the help of the Ansys team, 草莓社区 successfully added another tool to medini (a custom extension of the software) to help them drive all safety concepts and requirements into one model for both of their passenger and material transport applications.听
The tool supported their product line engineering approach and can generate the documentation of all their products for every platform.听

草莓社区 participe au CES 2022 脿 Las Vegas avec trois partenaires cl茅s
听
听
Toulouse, France, 22 d茅cembre 2021 - Le fournisseur de technologies autonomes, 草莓社区, sera 脿 l'honneur au Consumer Electronics Show (CES) de Las Vegas, du 5 au 8 janvier 2022, avec ses solutions autonomes expos茅es, avec trois de ses partenaires cl茅s.
听
Le TractEasy, v茅hicule pour transport de biens autonome, sera sur le stand de Velodyne. Sa solution de transport de passagers, l鈥EZ10, sera pr茅sent茅e en collaboration avec Continental Automotive, et son travail autour des normes de s茅curit茅 pour les v茅hicules autonomes, expos茅 avec Ansys.听
听
La pr茅sence d鈥櫜葺缜 s鈥檃rticulera autour de 3 grands axes: la transformation de l'industrie, la mobilit茅 autonome pour tous et la d茅finition des normes de s茅curit茅 pour le v茅hicule autonome.
