Zhongke Chuangda SoM blessing, Qualcomm Xiaolong UAV officially mass production

Recently, the consumer-grade UAV DOBBY based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon Flight drone platform released by Zero Intelligence has been officially mass-produced and shipped. The weight of the DOBBY machine is only 199 grams, which is equivalent to the size of a smartphone. It can be put into the pocket, and the price is only 2399 yuan. Small in size, simple to operate and affordable, DOBBY refreshes people's understanding of drones and is refreshing.

Qualcomm Xiaolong platform makes drones smaller and smarter

The DOBBY drone is able to throw away the bulky casing of the traditional drone while maintaining excellent performance. It can be seen that the zero-degree intelligent control is the strong technical strength of the top drone manufacturers. After the zero-degree intelligence control, Qualcomm and Zhongke Chuangda also played an important role in promoting: Qualcomm and Zhongke Chuangda jointly established the joint venture "Chuangtong Lianda", providing DOBBY based on Qualcomm Snapdragon Flight drone platform SoM (System on Module) core computing module.

Before 2015, it is impossible to manufacture intelligent drones below 200g. Because traditional drones require multiple boards to achieve functions such as flight control, image processing, and communication, the UAVs on the market are mostly bulky and priced at more than $1,000. In the second half of 2015, Qualcomm launched the "Snapdragon Flight" drone platform. Based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, Qualcomm Snapdragon Flight has powerful connectivity, advanced drone software and development tools for the new consumer class. Human-machine brings the latest mobile technology. The development platform supports 4K video, supports advanced communication and navigation, supports stable camera and sensor support, and supports fast charging. Its core component, the Snapdragon 801 processor, includes a quad-core 2.3GHz Krait CPU, Adreno 330 GPU, Hexagon DSP, dedicated video encoding engine and dual ISP. Together they form a heterogeneous computing platform that supports the development of advanced drone functions such as obstacle avoidance and video stabilization. The platform is a highly optimized 58x40mm development board designed for consumer drone and robotic applications. It can be said that with the introduction of Qualcomm's Snapdragon Flight reference design, the difficulty of drone development has been greatly reduced, and the "Snapdragon Flight" platform has become a powerful chip for major UAV manufacturers to seize the market share of consumer drones. It is foreseeable that the shipments of consumer drones will also increase significantly.

Core computing module helps DOBBY take off

The introduction of Qualcomm's Snapdragon Flight platform has greatly reduced the difficulty and cost of consumer-grade UAV development. However, there is still a technical difficulty in the development of UAVs, that is, the underlying technology threshold of the operating system connection chip is very high and development is very difficult. The core technologies of most drone manufacturers or start-up teams focus on the development of upper-layer applications such as algorithms, and it is difficult to invest a lot of manpower and time to develop operating systems. Therefore, it is still very difficult to get consumer-grade drone products and gain market recognition. At this point, Zhongke Chuangda's UAV core computing module has become the best solution to solve this problem.

Based on Qualcomm Snapdragon Flight platform, "Core Board + Operating System + Core Algorithm" integrated SoM (System on Module) UAV core computing module provided by Zhongke Chuangda, including customization from hardware PCBA and structural heat dissipation Optimization, operating system tailoring design, peripheral sensor performance optimization; image processing and transmission performance tuning, GPU module high-performance support, drone data control flow and other software framework solutions; and can be provided to customers for secondary development The full set of SDKs for flight control, optical flow, image processing algorithms and application development guarantees the stability and performance optimization of the product platform of drone manufacturers and innovation startups, as well as product differentiation research and development in their own areas of expertise. Great convenience. Therefore, for Zhongke Chuangda's partners such as Zero Intelligence, there is more time and resources to invest in the research and development of upper-level applications such as flight control, optical flow, and image stabilization algorithms that they are good at, without using It takes too much time and effort in the development of the underlying system.

Image stabilization depth optimization DOBBY pursuit of the ultimate

As a consumer drone, DOBBY has excellent camera performance: it supports a 13-megapixel high-definition camera with three-axis electronic stabilization, and has 4K, 30-frame video and multi-channel multi-stream compression rendering and image transmission. Function; its first-view image preview delay can reach 100 milliseconds level, and it adds face recognition, target follow-up, one-click beauty, one-click sharing and other functions for self-timer, and pre-produces professional video track for consumers. Come to the ultimate experience. In the DOBBY development process, in order to pursue the optimal image stabilization effect, Zhongke Chuangda has a technical breakthrough with zero-degree intelligent control. The hardware module has been proofed many times, only to pursue the best angle of view effect; At the beginning, only the exposure time and sensor data of each frame can be obtained, and finally it is accurate to determine the exposure time of each line in the frame and the sensor data synchronization, and the image stabilization function is maximized. The optimization of the product's power consumption, image transmission, system stability, etc. are all experienced after a thousand years of effort.

It is the experience of repeated polishing and continuous optimization that has made such an outstanding work such as DOBBY. With its beautiful industrial design, excellent performance and precise market positioning, DOBBY is a milestone in the consumer drone market. At the same time, DOBBY is also a joint venture between Qualcomm and China Science and Technology Co., Ltd., which is the first joint venture to support and apply the SoM core computing module based on Qualcomm's "Snapdragon Flight" drone platform and mass production of the UAV products. In the future, Chuangtong Lianda hopes to cooperate and work with more manufacturers, innovation and startup companies and industry chain to promote the development of intelligent drones and even the intelligent hardware industry.
