January 9, by the Zhoushan Municipal People's Government and Zhejiang Provincial Seaport Group, Ningbo Zhoushan Port Group, hosted by Ningbo Zhoushan Company undertook the "Wisdom - Gathering East China Sea Wisdom - together with the future" - Da Pukou Container Terminal Autopilot Pilot Area unveiling ceremony was held in the Jintang port area of Ningbo Zhoushan Port. The ceremony was held in Jintang Port Area of Ningbo Zhoushan Port. As an unmanned enterprise unit participating in supporting the construction of the pilot zone from 0 to 1, Prof. Zhang Tianlei, Chairman and CEO of TRUNK.TECH, was invited to attend the ceremony.
The formal inauguration of the automatic driving test area marks the intelligent transformation and upgrading of the traditional container terminal at Dapukou in Jintang Port Area of Ningbo Zhoushan Port into a brand new stage of development, and also fully verifies the scenario universality of Trunk Port's intelligent port driverless solution, and highlights the power, safety, flexibility and high applicability of the L4 level driverless technology. Da Pukou Container Terminal Automatic Driving Pilot Area is Zhejiang Seaport Group's "2+1" Intelligent Terminal Demonstration Project, which integrates advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, Internet of Things and big data, and adopts the automatic driving mode based on the mixed traffic state, which has the advantages of high operational efficiency and low operational energy consumption, and at the same time, it is able to effectively control the safety risks of the open-ended mixed traffic operation, and realize the port's safety and security. At the same time, it can effectively control the safety risks of open mixed traffic operation and realize the unmanned and intelligentization of transportation and container operation in the port area. The construction of the demonstration area will be based on the full realization of high-level automation operation of Da Pukou Container Terminal and the practice of "unmanned" self-driving mode assisted by intelligent Internet-connected vehicles remotely, so as to build the world's first open-type "intelligent port brain + remote-controlled automation equipment + intelligent Internet-connected vehicles and artificial container trucks mixed traffic scene" in the port area. With the goal of building the world's first open "intelligent port brain + remote control automation equipment + intelligent networked vehicle and manual container truck mixed traffic" port autonomous driving test area, the construction of the intelligent port will be pushed forward.
Since 2020, TRUNK.TECH has continued to participate deeply in the construction of the pilot area. From the entry of one ICT intelligent tractor, completing the verification of technical solutions at the fastest speed in the industry, to the scale of 13 ICT intelligent tractors and the opening of precision debugging and cluster operation, to the continuous improvement of ICT fleet size, breaking through the traditional dock mixed row scenarios of the "de-safety officer" problem, and realizing the 7x24 hour all-weather Real unmanned mixed row normalized ship operation, TRUNK.TECH to the highest safety standards, technical standards, service standards for the construction of the pilot area to provide hard core power.
Trunk Port intelligent port unmanned solution supported by L4 level unmanned technology as the core of TRUNK.TECH can seamlessly integrate into the business flow of all kinds of wharves, parks and other low-speed closed transportation scenarios in a faster, better and more flexible way, and help customers quickly realize the intelligent upgrade of their business. During the construction of the pilot area, TRUNK.TECH has created a unique "multi-traffic participant mixing game algorithm" for deep mixing operation scenarios at terminals, effectively eliminating the uncertainty brought by the complex traffic flow and human drivers' behavior, so that even at night, it is possible to realize mixing and driverless operation of outer container trucks, manned container trucks, pedestrians, other operation vehicles in the port area, and social vehicles. Even under night conditions, ICT can realize safe and smooth passage at busy intersections with mixed traffic and no traffic signal command, and support the whole process of automated operation.
Wisdom leads the way, sailing with the boat. TRUNK.TECH will continue to deepen the construction of the pilot area, continue to help customers build the world's first open mixed row fully automated container terminal, for Ningbo Zhoushan Port to build a world-class port and world-class enterprises to contribute to the "hard core" power.
