As the pioneer of pure electric hunting coupe, Krypton 001 has a place in the most competitive pure electric market of more than 300,000 by virtue of the value of hunting outfit, the passability of SUV, the space of station wagon and the control of super-running. Based on 001′ s mechanical quality and the product advantage that hunting clothes are all-powerful, extreme krypton 001 evolved to the extreme, and luxury hunting clothes super run 001 FR made its first public appearance.

Extreme Krypton 001 FR turns on the full-stack 800V high-voltage system, which has higher motor output power, stronger charging and discharging ability and higher energy conversion efficiency, matching with 100kWh Kirin battery. According to the official, it only takes 15 minutes to charge from 10% to 80%. At the same time, the four-motor distributed electric drive built by Krypton started mass production, with the performance of 001 FR added, and four high-performance SiC permanent magnet synchronous motors developed by Krypton made its maximum horsepower reach 1265 Ps, and the measured acceleration was 2.36 seconds, excluding the starting time (excluding the starting time: under standard working conditions, excluding the starting time of the first foot). ) Zero-speed acceleration is only 2.07 seconds, and the maximum speed is 280 km/h.

Extreme Krypton 001 FR is a hunting truck that can turn around the tank, and it has a peak torque at the wheel end of over 10,000 Nm. The U-turn of 001 FR tank not only does not pick the road surface, but also can accurately control the direction. Just choose the desired rotation angle, 001 FR can be completed automatically, and the deviation of the center of the circle is less than 20cm when turning around.

On the basis of intelligent drive system, Krypton invented a black technology with pure electrical performance-ZVC Krypton torque vector control. This is the first mass-produced four-wheel torque vector control system, which can monitor the rotating speed of four motors in real time during the whole journey of the vehicle, and accurately distribute and independently control the torque output of each wheel through intelligent algorithms.

Based on ZVC torque vector control, with the 50:50 weight distribution of polar krypton before and after 001 FR, the maximum lateral G value is 1.4 G when 001 FR turns. In addition, in the bottom test of Zhejiang International Circuit, Krypton 001 FR surpassed the fastest mass-produced electric vehicle in the current lap speed list with the fastest lap speed of 1 minute, 37 seconds and 53 seconds, setting a new record for pure electric performance.

More than that, the original factory of Krypton 001 FR has calibrated racing-class high-performance equipment, including Brembo top-class carbon ceramic brake discs, AP track-class ten-piston calipers, KW twisted teeth shock absorbers and other accessories, fully armed high-performance carbon fiber aerodynamic kit and brand-new intelligent driving mode, etc., which will fully stretch the performance of 001 FR. 001 FR is also the world’s first mass production equipped with 8295 intelligent cockpit computing platform. At present, Krypton 001 FR has started booking, with a maximum delivery of 99 units per month. It is expected that the first delivery will be started in late October.

Extreme krypton security re-evolved, and satellite communication technology was put into mass production for the first time in the world. Before the end of the year, 001 FR equipped with vehicle-mounted satellite communication technology will be able to open two-way satellite message and satellite voice call services, and realize sending and receiving messages and satellite calls under the condition of no ground network coverage or damage to the ground network, so as to make travel areas without network signal coverage in the past.

Based on the forward-looking vision of the vast architecture, since the brand was established in 2021, it has adhered to the self-developed, self-built and self-operated ultra-fast charging network. Regardless of scale, performance or core technology, the ultra-fast charging layout of the 800V platform is fully ahead of the industry. As of August 31st, the number of extremely charged stations has reached 348, ranking first in the whole industry, covering 90 cities, with more than 2,000 extremely charged parking spaces.

On the night of the conference, the world’s first extremely charged V3 charging pile was launched, with a single gun with a maximum power of 800kW, a maximum output voltage of 1000V and a maximum output current of 800A, and its core performance set an industry record. By the end of 2023, the V3 will be officially mass-produced, and will be put into use in the first quarter of next year. Extreme Krypton said that the layout of extreme charging is also accelerating. It is estimated that more than 450 extreme charging stations will be completed in 2023. In 2024, it is planned to maintain the speed of "one station a day" and realize the world’s first ultra-fast charging layout under the 800V system.

On September 1st, NZP, an extremely krypton expressway, was officially launched. The first two cities, Shanghai and Hangzhou, were opened, and 17 cities will be opened before the end of the year. The NZP beta of 20 cities will be launched simultaneously before the end of the year.

Omdia: It is estimated that the global robot artificial intelligence chipset market will reach 866 million US dollars in 2028.

  

According to Omdia’s prediction, the global market size of robot artificial intelligence chipset will reach 866 million US dollars, which will contribute to the popularization of GenAI in the robot field.

  

Omdia pointed out that since Google introduced the transformer RT-1 for robot applications in 2022, many companies have been vigorously promoting the wide application of GenAI in robots. In addition to Google, companies such as Meta, OpenAI and Toyota are trying out or testing various basic models in their robot applications. China service robot suppliers such as CloudMinds and OrionStar have successfully developed their own basic models, and plan to integrate these models with client software systems.

  

However, GenAI is a resource-intensive technology. In most industries, GenAI is usually deployed in the cloud because the model needs large-scale GPU clusters for training and reasoning. On the contrary, robots prefer local processing, because the tasks and business-critical applications they participate in usually give priority to real-time control and ultra-low delay response.

  

Su Lianjie, chief analyst of Omdia application intelligence, commented: "Although NVIDIA’s GPU is still the preferred artificial intelligence chipset architecture for cloud infrastructure and robots, non-GPU vendors such as Qualcomm, Intel and AMD have launched artificial intelligence system on a chip (SoC) or dedicated artificial intelligence chipsets for device-side robot applications such as machine vision, navigation and mapping, and functional safety."

  

Encouragingly, the wide application of GenAI has also promoted the popularity of humanoid robots. Humanoid robot is the closest robot to human form, so many robotics experts believe that its combination with humanoid GenAI will be a natural fit. In this upsurge, companies such as Agility Robotics, Boston Dynamics, Figure, Tesla, Fourier Intelligent, Tatsu and Ubisoft have launched various humanoid robots for industrial and service fields. However, the technology is still in its infancy, and it is impossible to popularize it on a large scale in the next five years. Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) and Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) are still mature application forms of GenAI.

  

Su Lianjie concluded: "The industry should not focus on hype, but should concentrate on consolidating the data and technical foundation. For robot suppliers, they need to expand the function of low-power GenAI in robots through various model optimization techniques, emphasize real-time control and performance, and be better at taking advantage of the integration of computing and connection. For robot users, the development of GenAI models in specific fields and strict examination of ethics, security, safety and performance will greatly promote the popularization of robots adopting GenAI.
