Recently, Anchuang Space, an ARM ecosystem accelerator, has joined forces with Allwinner Technology and Horizon.robotOPEN AI LAB, an open artificial intelligence laboratory initiated by China, was officially established today. OPEN AI LAB aims to explore new cooperation models to promote the coordinated development of software, hardware and application industrialization of embedded artificial intelligence.

Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and professor of Tsinghua University Zhang Yujiao, ARM Global Executive Vice President and Greater China President Wu Xiongang, Antron Space CEO Chen Peng, Allwinner Vice President Xue Wei and Horizon Robotics Founder CEO Yu Kai introduced OPEN AI at the meeting The background of the establishment of LAB expounds the common mission of developing the embedded artificial intelligence ecology.

Wu Xiongang, Executive Vice President of ARM Global and President of Greater China, introduced the trend of artificial intelligence industrialization and the mission of OPEN AI LAB. He said that on top of the big data produced by the mobile internet, the algorithm theory of artificial intelligence and the application practice in the cloud are almost the same. In 2018, the world has achieved remarkable results, but any technological revolution depends on the ability to widely improve the daily life of human beings. One of the success factors of artificial intelligence is that all popular embedded devices must have intelligence that can be seen, heard, and understood to help us make the best decisions to improve our daily lives. It is expected that OPEN AI LAB will explore a new cooperation model to solve the common basic problem of connecting chips to applications in industrialization practice, and help the embedded artificial intelligence industry to prosper at an early date.

Chen Peng, CEO of Anchuang Space, believes that the advent of the era of intelligent Internet of Everything will give birth to a fully intelligent and fully interconnected model. How to complete resource sharing and complementary advantages in the dynamically developing Industrial ecology, and collide with innovative solutions, is the artificial intelligence industry. an important part of sustainable development. As an ARM ecological accelerator, Anchuang Space makes use of abundant ecological resource connections and technological advantages, and is committed to helping innovative and entrepreneurial enterprises connect with ecological resources. We will gather more and better technology innovation companies and leading enterprises in the field of artificial intelligence in OPEN AI LAB, strengthen connection, stimulate innovation and accelerate industrial growth in terms of technology, application and market.

Xue Wei, vice president of Allwinner Technology, said that the current deployment of artificial intelligence applications is characterized by big data, high power consumption and high density computing. High power consumption restricts the penetration of artificial intelligence into more front-end application scenarios. The demand for artificial intelligence chips and solutions is very strong. It is necessary to solve the power consumption challenge through close industrial collaboration to push AI to front-end applications such as in-vehicle, handheld, IoT, etc.

Yu Kai, founder and CEO of Horizon Robotics, said that from the age of steam engines to the age of electrical appliances, to the age of information, human beings have stood at the door of the fourth industrial revolution. The difference from the previous three is that this time is centered on the machine to realize the intelligent perception environment, the most natural human-computer interaction, real-time autonomous decision-making control, and finally realize the true intelligence of all things on the basis of the Internet of Everything. The advancement of embedded artificial intelligence technology and the construction of industrial ecology will surely become the core force to promote the advent of the era of intelligence of all things. Since its establishment, Horizon has been committed to the product development and implementation of embedded artificial intelligence. It has in-depth cooperation with Bosch, Midea and other internationally renowned manufacturers in the fields of autonomous driving and smart life. In the future, it hopes to work with industry partners in OPEN AI LAB to promote embedded The industrialized development of artificial intelligence makes human life safer, more convenient and more interesting.

OPEN AI LAB will use an open structure to welcome upstream and downstream partners in the industry chain to participate in various ways, and jointly explore the technical cooperation model around the application industrialization goal of embedded artificial intelligence. On the technical route, fully tap the existing embedded computing resources to combine with new technologies, consolidate common values, and make full use of the existing software ecosystem to move forward smoothly. OPEN AI LAB also plans to cooperate with universities and other institutions, and artificial intelligence laboratories of major companies to carry out technical cooperation for activating applications to expand the development ecology. Through the in-depth collaboration of the whole industry, the vision of intelligence can be realized where there are programs.
