From high-speed rail to the field: The story of EAVision

Nov 12 , 2021

" Are you in the annals of history? I think we have and can be included in the annals of history. " Recalling the ups and downs of the two entrepreneurial ventures, Wang Xinyu, chairman of EAVision Robotics, asked and replied in an interview in the Dongsha Lake Fund Town.

 

EAVision Robot is an intelligent robot company with binocular vision as its core in Suzhou Park. It is also the founder Wang Xinyu and Dong Xuesong co-founded again. As early as 2015, the two co-founded Huaxing Zhiyuan and Shenzhen Baolilai Technology reorganized and went public, and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shenzhou High-speed Railway (stock code: 00008 ) on the main board of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange today.

One day in 2016, Dong Xuesong asked in an overseas phone call: " Xinyu, you have succeeded, but what have you done for your hometown? "Dong Xuesong is Wang Xinyu's high school classmate, and the two know their roots. The old friend's question " tortured " Wang Xinyu, reminding him of the farming scenes he saw in the fields when he was young.

 

Soon, Wang Xinyu resigned from the post of director and deputy general manager of China High-speed Railway. This summer, EAVision Robot was registered and established in Suzhou Park, and Dong Xuesong once again became Wang Xinyu's co-founder.

Overtaking in a curve: From the railway to field

 

Before the age of 45, Wang Xinyu had been dealing with high-speed railways. In his early years, he worked at the Harbin Railway Bureau Scientific Research Institute.

 

After founding EAVision Robot, he and his team plunged into Queshan, Henan, on the north bank of the Huai River, to become farmers. Located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, engineers from seven countries have carried out verification experiments for two years.

 

In 13 provinces and cities across the country, the effects of different terrains such as plains, hills, and mountainous areas have been verified. The team officially launched the plant protection drone products into the mass production stage.

 

From the perspective of capital attention, EAVision Robot received tens of millions of yuan in Series B financing from Fuli Investment, Yuanhe Holdings, CITIC Agricultural Fund, Syngenta, and other institutions in 2017 and 2018.

 

Huaxing Zhiyuan, founded in the early years, has become one of the contributors to China's high-speed rail curve overtaking. After the establishment of EAVision Robot, Wang Xinyu and Dong Xuesong hope to present the story of overtaking in a corner in the agricultural field.

 

In 2016, the field of plant protection drones is not a new thing from a global perspective. There are companies such as Yamaha, PrecisionHawk, Agribotix, DroneDeploy, etc. in overseas markets. There are also domestic markets such as DJI, Jifei Technology, Hanhe, and Quanfeng. Players.

 

Wang Xinyu told reporters that the core competitiveness of EAVision robot products lies in: " Intelligence, precision, and efficiency. Help customers and partners achieve cost reduction, efficiency increase, lightness, and sustainability. For example, the drone can be as low as 0.5 when attached to the surface of the crop. to 0.7 distance meters of high-speed spraying operation, especially economic crop up on 70 -degree angle imitation, the thick canopy profiling, intelligent autonomous obstacle avoidance, no mapping, without fear of loss of signal functions and features suitable for complex operations environment, All are world premieres or industry-leading. "

 

Technology empowers agriculture

 

The core technology of EAVision Robot is machine vision. The core members of the team are mainly from the automobile industry including Tesla and Bosch and the high-speed rail safety inspection industry, but they chose to put the product application scenarios on the field.

 

" Many of us grew up in rural areas, hoping to bring some changes to agriculture. Agricultural intelligent robots have relatively high requirements for engineering and systemization, and they are in line with our team's genes. " Wang Xinyu said, if not with The common vision for science and technology to change agriculture must not attract so many outstanding scientists and engineers to join.

 

Seeds are the chips of agriculture. The product design and development and trial production of the pesticide spraying link has been completed, and the EAVision Robot team continues to invest in product development in the breeding field. This time, their experiments and R&D started in South America, and they were the first to be applied and commercialized in Brazil. They are currently not only being carried out in different provinces of China, but also being verified and applied in countries such as Thailand, the United States, Romania, and India. At present, the emasculation detection system of Extreme Breeding is the only commercial application in the world.

 

The application of drones in the field of agriculture, forestry, and plant protection includes pesticide spraying and crop inspection. According to Frost & Sullivan's report, in 2019, among the application fields of China's industrial drones, agriculture, forestry, and plant protection accounted for 30.7%. It is expected that the average annual compound growth rate of the drone market in the field of plant protection from 2020 to 2024 will reach 47.2%.

 

In addition to farming efficiency, safety is more important. According to United Nations statistics, about 200,000 people die from pesticides in the world every year, 99% of which are in developing countries. There is no accurate figure for the number of people affected by exposure to pesticides, but it is between 1 million and 41 million.

 

" There is a huge market, huge social value, and extremely high technical difficulty. " When Wang Xinyu said this, behind Wang Xinyu was an extremely intelligent dispatching center wall, showing the number of drones in operation and the crops in the corresponding area. Information on the distribution and the number of drones in each province.

 

As far as the EAVision Robot Team is concerned, today they are committed to the upgrade of agriculture from mechanization to intelligence. The future end will be the realization of intelligence based on small intelligent equipment and agricultural big data.
