1.Changes in the paradigm of self-driving mobility

PhilLet's.a temporary remedy8When smart car sensing technology was developed a few years ago, it was related to smart cars.
At a conference involving key researchers and advisory faculty, I asked this question.

The reason why I asked this question is...,It was a time when the concept of self-driving cars was being drawn.
most ofOEMIt was because the company presented the same image as above.

There are still steering wheels in the self-driving vehicle and several displays.
It was a scenario in which one's location and the condition of the vehicle were monitored in real time and various information was delivered to passengers.

Namely,By self-driving, passengers simply read without paying attention to driving,
It's a concept that emphasizes the benefits of being able to rest..

but,ToothIs this the final version of self-driving that we imagine??

According to the recent paradigm for more evolved mobility, as shown in the image above, The passenger no longer needs to own the vehicle.
Even in the vehicle, you will not be interested in navigation information or vehicle status information.

In the coming future, the customer is...a service called mobilityYou're going to want to be served.
It also needs to be recognized that within the mobile space, it changes into a scenario in which they receive the services they want..

And reservations, transportation, cultural tourism, certification, check-in, rental, etc. that occur during every journey.
You will want to be served in a fully integrated form of economic activity.

This isMaas(Mobility-as-a-service)It's part of the realization of the concept ofin line with the social trend of the sharing economyThat's what it is..

In other words, future mobility companies will be transformed into providing mobile services rather than selling cars to customers..
AndThe conditions under which customers can provide services to spend meaningful and valuable time on the go are:
‘Self-driving’the technical completion ofIt's in the.

At the same time, you can rest in a moving object.,We can have a meeting., to enjoy leisure
Services that provide customized content based on My Data and Big Data will also be indispensable.

Currently, self-driving cars are being driven by technological advances.SAEstandard-defined6Level of the middle.0~2It's reached the level..
But there are still many technical issues in the industry.,Because of legal issues and social responsibility.
It is expected that it will take a long time for autonomous vehicles to be commercialized..

In this situation, mobility innovation continues to solve social problems such as traffic congestion and environmental pollution,
and connectivity,The concept of the sharing economy is presented accordingly.UAM,Micro Mobility(Electric Scooter),such as a kickboard)
New forms of mobility are also emerging..

2. The advent of new mobility

2020It was held in Las Vegas last year.the world's largest consumer electronics exhibitionCESon display at
One of the most trendy products isUAM(Urban Air Mobility)That was it..

Domestic and international industries have laid out a vision for innovative future mobility,
and a blueprint that is embodied beyond the image we have in our movies..

UAMis a new mobility option for cities that ultimately frees them from ground congestion.
The goal is to allow people to use their time for more valuable activities.

In addition, due to mega-cityization around the world, mobility efficiency is rapidly decreasing in urban areas.
From this, social costs such as logistics and transportation costs have increased dramatically andEnergy saving,Reducing carbon emissions, etc.
Solving the Environmental Pollution ProblemIt is a mobility platform proposed as an alternative..

National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA)Silver‘Urban Air Mobility(UAM)''Defined as an urban short-haul aviation ecosystemI'm doing it.
Broadly speaking, it includes the city center and the surrounding metropolitan area.That's how I do it..
In this realm, we're going to take the human movement.2in dimensional space3We want to use the expanded sky as a new passageway..

Also, from the origin to the destinationSeamlessFor mobility and connectivity,
With the advent of micro-mobility products and services, mobility options will become more abundant..
※Seamless: Transportation services with no boundaries between regions

especially, 2026From this year on, it's going to be for the general public.UAMWe're going to push for a pilot service., 2029We are planning to expand our service area by the year.

4. UAM's Ecosystem and Core Technologies

UAMThe ecosystem is a gas.,Infrastructure,It's divided into service areas..

The gas is body shash.,Electronic equipment,an electric motor,Product families, such as tilting rotors, and related to maintenance and maintenance.
MRO(Maintenance, repair and operation)It contains technology.
The infrastructure is a component of the Bertie Port and the control system.,In-terminal check-in procedures used by passengers,Includes security facilities, etc..

You don't need a runway like a conventional airport.,I want to renovate the roof of a downtown building.
PAVBuilding a new terminal is being considered as a practical option..

The service is for passengers.SeamlessIt will include all connectivity-related services for one mobility.

PAVThe core technologies involved in manufacturing and operating systems are largely6It can be divided into individual areas,
and with regard to the gas chassis, the material for optimization of flight and maneuver.,There are structural techniques and methods of propulsion..

Navigation for autonomous flight with electronic equipment,Communication and remote control There is a safety-guaranteed technology to protect passengers and pilots in emergency situations.It includes technology to update systems, such as smartphones, and this is accompanied by cybersecurity technology to prevent hacking.
The last one is a battery technology that generates electricity, which is a power source..

4-1. Airframe

The technology keywords that are mainly mentioned in relation to gas development areeVTOL(electric Vertical Take-off and Landing),
Material,Battery, 5G,Self-driving,There's big data..

PAVThere are many ways to take off and land, and depending on the power source,
Considering the environmental pollution problem in the city, using pure electricityeVTOLExpect to converge in a wayI'm doing it.

Hanwha System also adopted this method.Let's reveal Butterfly.I did..

PAVis divided into several stages, from fully autonomous flight without a pilot..
About 2028Year, at the first commercialization point, we're planning to fly with a pilot..
At this time, the pilot does not directly intervene in the operation, but intervenes in an emergency to prepare for an accident.

After that, the pilot will not be on board directly, but will be remotely controlled..
At this stage, the connectivity between the airframe and the remote control equipment must be fully secured.,
Wishing for UberIn other related industries, they fly at a low altitude in the city center.PAVas a communication channel to control
5GI...6GConsider a commercial mobile networkI'm doing it..

5G considered as a communication channelThe characteristic of the network is that the super result is ultra-low delay..

The last one is the stage of fully autonomous flight, where the pilot is excluded..
At this stage, intelligent sensors and high precision mounted on the aircraftGPSis moved towards its destination by.

However, simple autonomous flight may not be able to respond to unexpected situations.
Calculation of the optimal path by artificial intelligence technology,Judgment of abnormal conditions,You'll have to decide on collision and risk aversion manoeuvres..

In order for judgment by artificial intelligence algorithms to be optimized like this,
a vast amount of data(Big data)It's essential that you learn based on that..

In the case of Tesla20Autopilot collected on a yearly basis(Driving and various sensor data)Data only50It's hundreds of millions of miles..
So many Tesla vehicles still on the road are generating data, and Tesla is collecting it in real time.
We are optimizing autonomous driving algorithms with our own system and updating the vehicle remotely again..

As in Tesla's case, the completeness of self-driving goes up based on data.
The direction that autonomous driving technology should pursue, especially according to accidents.RisksbigPAVdata-driven in
Autonomous flight research and development will be essential..

From an energy perspective, the most important technical factors are materials and batteries..
When the aircraft is lightweight, the volume of cargo and passenger transportation increases, and when energy efficiency increases, the range of flight increases.
This is because you can maximize the return on your business..

PAVThe characteristics of molten carbon material must be light and very strong.,Electrical and thermal conductivity must be excellent.
Recently, for the development of original technology for aviation, the development of carbon materials centered on Hanwha System has been carried out.
PAVThe Carbon Material Alliance has been launched..

Among the core technologies, development in the battery field is relatively slow..
Especially electric cars and drones., PAVThe battery that is applied to a moving object powered by electricity, such as
Energy capacity and efficiency are critical performance metrics..

In particular, it operates continuously in the form of an air taxi.PAVWhen you look at the operational scenario,
In addition to the large capacity, we also need to think about how to quickly charge and replace it.

At the current level of technology, as capacity increases, so does weight and volume..
Uber's suggestion.PAVCompared to Tesla models, battery specifications are weak in capacity and density.50%We need to improve our performance..

However, until a battery that satisfies this performance is released,10I expect it to take more than years.,
The slower the technological advancement,PAVIt is predicted that popularization will be delayed..

Attempts are being made to introduce hydrogen cells as an alternative solution for battery launch..
Recently, Hanwha Solution is also carrying out hydrogen energy-related projects in line with the government's Green New Deal policy.,
especiallyTYPE-4We are trying to secure the storage technology of the ultra-high-pressure hydrogen tank..

Hydrogen fuel cells are suitable as energy sources for flying vehicles that consume a lot of energy for air space due to their high energy density relative to weight.
If you use it, you can run for a long time.PAVBusiness profitability can also be greatly improved..

4-2. Infrastructure

PAVThe dragon infrastructure is a terminal for passengers and includes space for takeoff and landing and maintenance of the aircraft and charging the battery..
We're going to make sure that we're going to be able to create aBertie Hub,Bertie Port,Bertie padIt can be separated into two..

The infrastructure is...PAVAs a connectivity platform for boarding and maintenance as well as connectivity to other transportation systems
