Unmanned driving Unmanned delivery vehicle industrial control computer selection solution

1. Background

A research institute conducts innovative research in the field of unmanned driving technology and plans to apply it to the development of the core control system of unmanned delivery vehicles. Since the unmanned driving scene has high requirements for the stability and environmental adaptability of hardware equipment, customers need to select a high-performance and highly reliable industrial computer for the unmanned delivery vehicle main control system.

2. Customer core demand analysis

(1). Compact size: The internal space of the unmanned delivery vehicle is limited, and the main control equipment needs to be miniaturized;

(2). Rich interfaces: It needs to support the CAN FD communication protocol to meet the coordinated control of multiple devices such as sensors and cameras;

(3). High environmental adaptability: The embedded fanless pc needs to have anti-seismic and high-temperature resistance to ensure stable operation under complex working conditions;

(4). Strong performance: It needs to support real-time data processing and high-speed computing to ensure the response efficiency of the unmanned driving system.

3.Selection process

(1). Keyword analysis

Combining customer needs, SINSMART TECH engineers took "small size" and "interface compatibility" as core screening criteria, prioritized traditional large-scale industrial computers, locked in industrial fanless embedded pc, and then preliminarily screened out models that meet the CAN FD interface requirements and support multiple expansion functions by comparing the parameters of mainstream products in the industry.

(2). Performance and environmental adaptability verification

After narrowing the scope, further evaluate the seismic level and operating temperature of the equipment, and verify its operating stability in an environment of -20℃ to 60℃ and its reliability in high-frequency vibration scenarios through laboratory simulation tests.

At the same time, combined with the customer's requirements for data processing speed, the configuration scheme equipped with high-performance processors and large-capacity memory is preferred.

(3). Solution recommendation

After multiple rounds of technical evaluation, SINSMART TECH engineers finally recommended an embedded industrial computer SIN-3049-H310 to the customer.

The chassis adopts a compact design with a size of 212*165*63mm, which is suitable for the internal space of unmanned express delivery vehicles;

The built-in CAN FD interface can seamlessly connect sensors and cameras;

Equipped with Core 8/9 generation processors and solid-state drives to meet real-time data processing needs;

The equipment has also passed industrial-grade seismic and wide temperature certifications, and can operate in a wide temperature environment of -25~70℃, ensuring continuous and stable operation in complex environments.

4. Solution implementation and feedback

After the equipment was delivered, the SINSMART TECH engineer team assisted the customer in completing system integration and debugging. In the test simulating the unmanned driving scene, the industrial computer operated stably and the data processing efficiency reached the expected goal.

However, during the test, it was found that the CAN FD interface card had occasional transmission delay problems. In response to this situation, the team quickly provided a firmware upgrade solution and optimized the communication protocol configuration, which ultimately solved the potential hidden dangers.

Conclusion

Through in-depth analysis of industry application needs, accurate matching of technical parameters, and continuous optimization of solutions combined with field tests, SINSMART TECH successfully helped customers build a highly reliable unmanned driving control system.

In the future, the team will further accumulate industry experience, improve selection methodology, and provide efficient and stable industrial computer solutions for more industrial scenarios.
