China News Service, Beijing, April 20 (Zhang Xu) The "non-contact" application that can complete various economic activities without meeting is very popular because of the epidemic. Delivery of food, express delivery, online office, non-contact temperature measurement, government affairs ... A series of "non-contact" scenarios and applications provide convenience for epidemic prevention and control, and also promote the heating of the "non-contact economy".

Measure body temperature without contact

  In a Hema Xiansheng supermarket in Beijing, customers waiting to enter the mall successively “swipe their faces” in front of the electronic screen, and their temperature is displayed on the screen in real time-during the epidemic, in crowded places such as train stations, airports, shopping malls, schools, etc. The "non-coordinated temperature measurement" by a temperature-measuring robot has become the norm.

  This temperature measurement is achieved through thermal imaging technology, as long as someone passes the camera area, even if wearing a mask, you can accurately measure the body temperature. This non-contact service not only provides a solution for the epidemic prevention and control of high-traffic people, but also effectively prevents all kinds of hidden dangers that are manually detected.

  The huge demand for non-contact temperature measurement has spawned new industry standards. On April 16, the Zhongguancun Management Committee officially released the "Technical Specifications for Non-contact Intelligent Body Temperature Screening System". The lead drafting unit of the standard, Beijing Kuangshi Technology Co., Ltd. introduced that the standard proposes the basic structure of a non-contact intelligent temperature screening system, including 11 modules including video image acquisition, temperature analysis, target detection, and intelligent alarm.

  Chen Wenqi, a second-level inspector of Zhongguancun Management Committee, said that the standard can effectively improve the accuracy and speed of non-contact intelligent temperature screening, improve the accuracy of identification, screening speed and differentiation, unify relevant technical requirements and test requirements, and promote the promotion of The standardized development and industrialization promotion of infrared AI temperature measurement technology are of great significance.

Express delivery, no need to meet

  In the field of express delivery, which is closely related to people's daily lives, "non-contact" technology is also playing a role.

  On February 6, an intelligent distribution robot independently developed by JD Logistics crossed the streets of Wuhan and delivered medical supplies to Wuhan Ninth Hospital. Outside Wuhan, Jingdong Intelligent Distribution Stations in Changsha, Guiyang, and Hohhot are also continuing to serve surrounding communities through distribution robots.

  Kong Qi, the chief scientist of autonomous driving of Jingdong Logistics Group, introduced that the courier disinfected and placed the vehicle according to the standard process. After clicking the departure, the vehicle will automatically notify the recipient via SMS and voice call, and wait for the customer to pick up, and then Automatically go to the next pick-up point or return to the distribution site, and realize the whole L4 automatic driving including complex scenes such as mixed traffic of people and vehicles, traffic light intersections and so on.

  "The entire distribution process has been unmanned. During the epidemic, not only did it reduce the way the virus spreads, but it also eased the dilemma of labor shortage." Kong Qi said. As of now, L4 level autonomous driving technology has been running for more than 2 months and everything is normal. Recently, the volume of unmanned delivery orders has gradually increased, indicating that Wuhan's daily life is recovering.

  Based on automatic driving technology, JD.com has also developed indoor and outdoor killing robots in different scenarios, which can be automatically disinfected in environments with high mobility of personnel such as airports, train stations, shopping malls, etc., equipped with high-pressure nozzles, ultraviolet lamps, and air disinfection Machine and other equipment, automatically monitor body temperature and whether to wear a mask.

  In the "last mile" of the distribution link, there is also contactless technology participation.

  On April 17, Ma Junsheng, director of the State Post Bureau, said that during the epidemic, the smart express box (letter box) played an important role in ensuring "indirect contact delivery" and preventing cross-infection. It not only served the majority of users and consumers, but also It provides convenience for the first-line courier delivery and reduces the risk of infection.

  The State Post Bureau said that it will guide the provincial and municipal postal administration departments to cooperate with local authorities to promote the inclusion of smart express boxes (letter boxes) and public service stations into the scope of urban and rural public infrastructure construction and accelerate planning and construction.

Non-contact economy has become a new growth point

  The huge demand in extraordinary times has also brought new models such as remote office into the rising period. Dingding data shows that the scale of China's online office market has maintained a steady growth in recent years. This year, affected by the epidemic, the market size is expected to exceed 50 billion yuan.

  Among them, online meetings and online recruitment is a major application scenario. March and April in previous years were the peak recruitment season. This year, due to the impact of the epidemic, in order to avoid the hidden dangers caused by people gathering and effectively carry out resumption of production, enterprises and other talent recruitment fairs have moved to the "cloud".

  Against the background of the global spread of the epidemic, China ’s achievements and experience in developing a non-contact economy have received international recognition.

  At the end of March, the United Nations headquarters in New York announced Tencent as its global partner, providing comprehensive technical solutions for the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the United Nations, and will organize thousands of conference events online through Tencent meetings, WeChat and Tencent simultaneous interpretation. In order to fight the epidemic on a global scale, Tencent Meeting has also developed and launched the international version of the application VooV Meeting, covering more than 100 countries and regions.

  "Contactless" technology is becoming a major focus in government planning. Recently, Shanghai proposed to accelerate the development of new economy and new industries such as online economy, home economy, and non-contact economy. Anhui also proposed to actively develop new economic industries such as online economy, home economy, and non-contact economy to form new growth points.

  For example, the unmanned workshop of SAIC-GM Jinqiao plant used intelligent manufacturing methods such as "black lamp factory" and "smart logistics" during the epidemic to achieve non-contact manufacturing. The unmanned production line has always "not dropped". While preventing and controlling the epidemic, it has laid a stable and high-yielding guard battle.

  Standing at the "non-contact" service outlet, the "non-contact economy" is being integrated into social development, cultivating new kinetic energy and building new advantages. (Finish)
