Recently, Dr. Chen Fangping, CEO of I-KINGTEC, was a guest of the first domestic TV news program focusing on the field of artificial intelligence, "Super Intelligence", with the chairman of the World Federation of Engineering Organizations, the dean of China's new generation artificial intelligence development strategy research institute, and the host of the program Gong Ke The professor talked about the future of artificial intelligence and the development of fully autonomous drones. Due to the epidemic, this program adopts the cloud-based (online) studio model.

During the prevention and control of the epidemic, the fully autonomous inspection system of I-KINGTEC Orca and Tiger's Nest UAV was brilliant. With its intelligent and unmanned characteristics, it has won unanimous praise from Tianjin governments and the industry. Invited to participate in "Super Intelligence" this time, Dr. Chen Fangping and Professor Gong Ke discussed the application of drones, fully autonomous drones and artificial intelligence during the I-KINGTEC epidemic, and the future of three aspects.

How to define I-KINGTEC, the future application of artificial intelligence technology on drones?

Strictly speaking, I-KINGTEC is not a traditional "drone" company. I-KINGTEC takes artificial intelligence as the core, and uses four-dimensional real-world maps, fully autonomous drones, fully automated airports, and IoT cloud platforms as carriers to integrate Diversified sensors provide users with machine, network, and cloud integrated system solutions, and ultimately become an ultra-low altitude (0-500m) integrated data operation service provider.

In artificial intelligence technology, with the development of current technology, drones will be used as an aerial work platform for artificial intelligence technology in the future, providing humans with a pair of aerial eyes and industry tools. In the future, drones will need to obtain multiple or tens of times more information than the current one. The control of drones will also develop from manual remote control to unmanned. With the grid layout of automatic airports, drones will also carry out "flights". The management of “systemization” has finally created a “Skynet” system for humans to solve industry pain points, from cloud-based computer vision technology, point cloud reconstruction and segmentation technology, to real-time edge computing at the drone end, and then to the small-scale airport end. For computing arrays, I-KINGTEC will build a closed-loop system of machine-net-cloud.

Has I-KINGTEC carried out new technology development for epidemic prevention and control?

Unmanned and intelligent services for smart cities have always been the core of I-KINGTEC’s layout. In this epidemic prevention work, the advantages of unmanned, automated, and intelligent have been further verified and recognized, which can prevent staff from going out. The risk of contagion. It has been used for thousands of days. During the epidemic, I-KINGTEC’s Tiger’s Nest Automatic Airport and Orca UAV can be used flexibly, and different sensors can be automatically replaced, such as the use of 30x optical zoom pods, infrared thermal imaging pods, Propaganda pod and so on. Other industry applications are also being put into use. For example, in the emergency rescue industry, normalized and frequent patrols can be carried out in risky areas. At the same time, we have also customized artificial intelligence algorithms such as mask wearing recognition, crowd gathering recognition, population density statistics, etc., based on the needs of epidemic prevention and quickly for some new scenarios. It can be said that this epidemic prevention work has brought richer application scenarios to I-KINGTEC's product system, and our low-altitude service grid is also deepening.

How to see the future development of drones?

At present, most UAVs are controlled manually and are affected by human subjective factors. The safety of aircraft is restricted by the pilot’s subjective factors. Therefore, it is necessary to restrict the flight of UAVs under the current circumstances. The future development of UAVs requires that UAVs get rid of the influence of human subjective factors, truly become "unmanned" aircraft, and finally achieve the same standardization as civil aviation passenger aircraft, and unified management of flights.

Chen Fangping personal introduction

Fangping Chen, Ph.D., senior engineer at Peking University, founder and CEO of I-KINGTEC Technology Co., Ltd., under the tutelage of Gao Wen, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and director of Pengcheng Laboratory, has nearly ten years of electronic engineering and computer software and hardware Collaborative research and development experience, computer vision and sensor intelligent system multi-integration research and development experience, has dozens of national patents, and published many papers. Won the China Association for Science and Technology "Science and Technology Entrepreneurship Pioneer", Tianjin May Fourth Youth Medal, shortlisted in 2020 Forbes Asia 30 Under 30 Elite List, 2019 Forbes China 30 Under 30 Elite List, won two consecutive masters and PhDs from Peking University National scholarship, won the title of "Young Eagle Talent" in Zhongguancun. It was received by Li Lanqing, former Vice Premier of the State Council, Han Qide, former Vice Chairman of the National People’s Congress and Vice Chairman of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, Princess Sirindhorn of Thailand, and Swiss Ambassador to China.


In March 2017, Chen Fangping founded I-KINGTEC and led the team to start from zero, dig deep into the pain points of the industry and improve industrial production efficiency. Due to Chen Fangping’s in-depth understanding of artificial intelligence and industrial drones, in less than a year, he led the team to complete the development and launch of a generation of "Tiger's Nest Fully Automatic Airport" and "Orca UAV", making I-KINGTEC Become a leader in the field of UAV fully automatic airport. The products he led research and development have been widely favored by the market, and I-KINGTEC has also obtained hundreds of millions of financing and orders in three years.
