Speaking of this, Zhou Xiangming paused and then said with a smile.

“Actually, the entire trimming and charging stage is also a process in which we trim and maintain the Wangshu intelligent lunar surface patrol and exploration vehicle.

Through the surveillance camera lens on the intelligent robotic arm, including the surveillance camera lens on the small detection robot, the entire 'Wangshu' intelligent lunar surface patrol and exploration vehicle was inspected to check the previous high-speed maneuvering and movement of the entire vehicle. Whether some damage occurred during the detection process.

If there are any, they will be processed in a timely manner, parts should be replaced when parts should be replaced, and repairs should be performed when repairs are needed. "

Um? Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be surprised. How come your "Wangshu" intelligent lunar surface patrol and exploration vehicle can still replace parts and repairs by itself?

Seeing everyone's doubts, Zhou Xiangming then explained with a smile: "Our 'Wangshu' intelligent lunar surface patrol and exploration vehicle is actually equipped with many parts, which can be used in daily life." used for vehicle maintenance.

In addition, we also equipped the car with a welding gun to weld damaged parts if necessary.

The reason why we are so well prepared is mainly due to the interest in the mission. Our "Wangshu" intelligent lunar surface patrol rover is very fast and can move very quickly. Maybe the distance it travels in ten minutes is enough for other rover to travel in one minute. Years later, the distance it travels in one day is longer than the distance traveled by all human extraterrestrial ground detectors.

Because of this, it has undoubtedly experienced the most changes in terrain and environment, so the test it will undergo will also be very severe. What's more, we have great expectations for it, hoping that it can go further on the moon and detect more valuable scientific research data.

This task is undoubtedly arduous, and various difficulties will certainly be encountered during the process. Equipment damage and failure are also inevitable. The moon is so far away that we can't fly to rescue it, so everything has to be solved by itself, so we designed an autonomous maintenance function for it.

This will enable it to have autonomous rescue and repair capabilities when it encounters malfunctions and damage, thus improving its survivability in the harsh lunar environment. "

After hearing Zhou Xiangming's introduction, all the experts and leaders present couldn't help but sigh.

Zou Huanyi sighed at Wu Hao and others: "If I remember correctly, this should be the world's first extraterrestrial scientific research exploration vehicle with independent maintenance functions."

Strictly speaking, it is the first extraterrestrial scientific research exploration vehicle with external physical maintenance functions. The expert said something, and then extended his hand and said: "In the past, the extraterrestrial patrol vehicles, whether they were sent to the moon or Mars, did not have this functional design, or even thought about this aspect. Pass.

All countries have adopted disaster recovery backup plans, that is, preparing two sets of important equipment parts. In this way, even if one system or equipment part fails, the other one can still operate normally.

As for you, in addition to this, you have also developed another disaster recovery system, which is an independent maintenance function module. This is amazing.

So far, most of the exploration vehicles in various countries have ended their lives and stopped working due to various failures. And a large part of them are due to a tiny fault, which can be repaired and continue to perform tasks with only a little intervention from external forces.

But what can be done is that it is beyond reach. Whether it is on the moon or Mars, the distance is too far. The cost of intervention and maintenance is simply too high to be worth it.

Our Jade Rabbit is for this reason, which is really a pity. "

Hearing this expert talk about past regrets, many experts and leaders present nodded silently. It was obvious that everyone was still full of regrets about this matter.

So thinking of this, some experts immediately asked Wu Hao: "Mr. Wu, can you give us a detailed introduction to your independent maintenance function? It will also open our eyes."

Yes, Mr. Wu, can you tell me a little bit about it. At this time, other experts also reacted and began to plead with Wu Hao and the others.

As for Qin Xinghe, after hearing the words of these experts, he immediately turned to look at Wu Hao and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that you still have such a skill. It's really unkind. Why, so many people are begging you , can you tell us all about it?"

Haha, Wu Hao smiled when he heard this, and then said to everyone: "Actually, this was our first idea, or an inspiration by chance.

Initially, when we proposed to orbit the moon, many of our experts and technicians thought it was impossible. How could it be possible to orbit the moon and be on the moon? It was simply a fantasy.

Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just say that the car is the most popular and mature means of transportation on the planet. Currently, there is no car with the quality and performance that can support it to travel around the earth without any failures. What's more, this is on the moon, and it's just a scientific research rover.

Many people thought we were crazy for proposing such a naive idea. "

Hearing Wu Hao say this, everyone present smiled knowingly. Indeed, anyone who heard such thoughts would think that Wu Hao and the others had something wrong with their brains.

As for Wu Hao, everyone smiled and continued: "After receiving our affirmation of determination, these experts and technicians went crazy and protested again and again. This is impossible.

But we are resolute, because in our opinion, since we have spent so much effort to send this intelligent lunar surface patrol and exploration vehicle 'Wangshu' to the moon, we naturally hope that it can 'do' more work. Rather than just running for a day or two, then something goes wrong and it is completely destroyed. This is not what we want.

Seeing our firm attitude, although these experts and technicians complained repeatedly, they had to bite the bullet and deal with our harsh and unreasonable requirements.

In order to enhance the reliability of the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar surface patrol and exploration vehicle, our experts and technicians have thought of many good methods, and many of these methods and design plans have been applied to this "Wangshu" intelligent lunar surface patrol and exploration vehicle. Shu's intelligent lunar surface patrol and exploration vehicle. However, in the end, everyone discovered that despite so many people's "fault tolerance" design, no one could guarantee that the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar surface patrol and exploration vehicle would not malfunction during its driving work. No one can guarantee this, nor can there be any guarantee that such a complex system equipment will not cause any problems.

So the research reached a deadlock again. At that time, everyone seemed to be doing their best to solve the reliability problem, but they didn't know that they had unknowingly got into the corner.

Later, I thought the designer's words woke everyone up. Since faults are unavoidable, why are we so eager? Why can't we design and develop a maintenance system, so that on this intelligent lunar vehicle 'Wangshu' When the lunar patrol probe breaks down, it can be repaired in time, so this technology was born.
