On March 25th, the 8th China Electric Vehicle Hundred People Forum 2022 “Cloud Summit” officially kicked off in Beijing. On the opening day of the conference, the Dual-Intelligence Forum with the theme of “Promoting the Collaborative Development of Smart Cars and Smart Cities” was launched.
Guo Huipeng, the Chief Scientist and Chief Engineer of Huawei Smart City, stated that Huawei’s concept of a smart city is a smart city entity, which is divided by Huawei into four levels:
-
The bottom layer is the intelligent interaction layer, which is the interface for the interaction between the digital world and the physical world, and various end devices perceive changes in the physical world;
-
Upward is the intelligent connection layer, including various networks, wired and wireless communication networks, forming a bridge between the physical world and the intelligent world;
-
Upward again is the intelligent center, including cloud computing infrastructure, and various intelligent centers are built on top of it, providing various basic abilities for applications;
-
Finally, there is the smart application in the industry, including the three major areas of digital government, digital economy, and digital society, and there will be numerous innovative application scenarios.
Moreover, Huawei’s CarCityNet platform architecture and intelligent entity architecture are isomorphic, but the intelligent interaction layer involves more road-side devices and on-board devices in the intelligent networked automotive field.
Guo Huipeng said that the fusion of dual intelligence still faces three important challenges:
-
Both smart cities and intelligent networked vehicles have their own challenges, and they are continuously improved in the process of continuous advancement. In addition, in the integrated development, one aspect is how to better complete the top-level design of dual intelligence fusion;
-
How to form better infrastructure construction standards;
-
Explore the value scenarios of dual intelligence fusion for commercial closed-loop services.
Guo Huipeng stated that firstly, it is necessary to strengthen the top-level design of dual intelligence fusion in combination with the problems faced, clarify the leading organization, and continuously promote synergy and joint efforts based on advanced regional experience; Secondly, continuously accelerate the digitization standard specification of the road network; Thirdly, the city-level platform needs to be continuously deepened and effectively integrated with the existing urban system. Because the digital construction of the current stage of the city rarely starts from scratch, it is necessary to effectively integrate with the existing system; Fourthly, accelerate the exploration of the value scenarios of dual intelligence fusion, and promote the effective integration of applications in the field of smart cities and the development of intelligent networked vehicles, fully considering factors such as established 5G resources, urban computing power resources, and intelligent networked car penetration rate in the process.
