【外媒】小松的挖機要上月亮了，你知道嗎？！

【鐵甲網(wǎng) 獨家編譯】近日外媒發(fā)布一則消息，小松月球建筑設備數(shù)字孿生技術(shù)（digital twin technology）開發(fā)提案入選日本國土交通廳主導的外太空自動化施工項目，并公開了一張?zhí)兆詣玉{駛挖機的樣子，科技感十足。

看到這臺挖機的時候，小編emo了，挖機界內(nèi)卷都這么嚴重了嗎？前一秒還在地球上討論價格戰(zhàn)呢，下一秒就看到一臺自動駕駛挖機即將登月（技術(shù)還在探索中）！

上圖是小松給世人描述的十年后挖機在月球和地球建設的樣子，他們有一個共同點都是遠程操作。究竟是怎樣的外太空自動化建設項目，小松將用怎樣的技術(shù)來實現(xiàn)月球自動化操作的，小編給大家找了一些資料，咱們一起來看看吧！

外媒全文大意如下：

小松株式會社（以下簡稱"小松"）已申請了關(guān)于促進外層空間自主建設創(chuàng)新技術(shù)開發(fā)項目（由日本國土交通?。ㄒ韵潞喎Q"國土交通省"牽頭，日本文部科學省合作）的提案請求。該項目由國土交通省于2021年7月決定，作為其加速空間技術(shù)研究、開發(fā)和利用戰(zhàn)略計劃（星塵計劃）的一部分。小松提出的月球建筑設備數(shù)字孿生技術(shù)開發(fā)提案已被選為自主建筑相關(guān)技術(shù)（自動化和遠程控制）的合格目標。

在促進自主建筑創(chuàng)新技術(shù)發(fā)展委員會的領導下，所有選定的公司和組織將努力進行各自技術(shù)的研究和開發(fā)。這樣，在不久的將來，小松將為日本先進建設的成就和外太空建設活動的研發(fā)做出貢獻，例如在月球上蓋房子……

在2022年（3月止）的3年中期經(jīng)營計劃中，小松正致力于通過推進產(chǎn)品（機器的自動化和自主性）和流程（op）來實現(xiàn)未來安全、高生產(chǎn)率、智能和清潔的工作場所。關(guān)于月球建筑設備數(shù)字孿生技術(shù)（digital twin technology）的選定開發(fā)，小松將在產(chǎn)品和工藝中利用積累的技術(shù)。

由于月球表面的實際物體很復雜，小松認為數(shù)字孿生技術(shù)（digital twin technology）至關(guān)重要，可以精確地重建現(xiàn)場條件和機器。為了開發(fā)這項技術(shù)，小松將進行可行性研究，以驗證開發(fā)高精度數(shù)字孿生技術(shù)的可能性，這是月球建筑設備的基礎技術(shù)。具體來說，小松將在網(wǎng)絡空間中創(chuàng)建和操作液壓挖掘機，并將其運動與地球上的實際設備進行比較，以驗證模擬器的精度。小松還將月球的表面條件設置為網(wǎng)絡空間，并檢查模擬器中挖掘機的運動，以確定我們的月球設備面臨的問題。

Komatsu Selected for Development of Innovative Technologies for Outer Space Autonomous Construction Managed by the Japanese Government: Participating in the Project for Promoting the Development of Innovative Technologies for Autonomous Construction, Such as on the Moon

Komatsu Ltd. (hereafter “Komatsu”) (President and CEO: Hiroyuki Ogawa) has applied for the request for proposal concerning the Project for Promoting the Development of Innovative Technologies for Outer Space Autonomous Construction (lead-managed by Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (hereafter "MLIT") with collaboration by Japan’s Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology). This Project was decided by the MLIT in July this year as part of its Strategic Program for Accelerating Research, Development and Utilization of Space Technology (Stardust Program). Komatsu’s proposal of the Development of Digital Twin Technology for Lunar Construction Equipment has been selected as an eligible target of Technology related to Autonomous Construction (Automation and Remote Control). 

Under the leadership of the Council of Promoting the Development of Innovative Technologies for Autonomous Construction, an inter-ministry collaboration body, all selected companies and organizations will diligently conduct research and development of their individual  technologies. In this way, in the near future Komatsu will contribute to Japan’s achievement of advanced construction and research and development of outer space construction activities, such as on the moon. future.

Adaptation of lunar construction equipment by using digital twin technology (conceptual)

In the ongoing three-year, mid-term management plan, to be completed in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022, Komatsu is working to achieve safe, highly productive, smart, and clean workplaces of the future by advancing products (automation and autonomy of machines) and processes (optimization of construction operations). Concerning the selected Development of Digital Twin Technology for Lunar Construction Equipment, Komatsu will utilize accumulated technologies in both products and processes. 

Because it’s complicated to approach actual objects on the moon's surface, Komatsu believes that digital twin technology is essential, precisely recreating site conditions and machines. To develop this technology, Komatsu will conduct a feasibility study to verify the possibility of developing high-precision digital twin technology, the basic technology of lunar construction equipment. Specifically, Komatsu will create and operate a hydraulic excavator in cyberspace and compare its movements with actual equipment on Earth to verify the simulator's precision. Komatsu will also set the surface conditions of the moon as cyberspace, and check the movements of the excavator in the simulator in order to identify the issues facing our lunar equipment. 

Achievement of safe, highly productive, smart and clean workplaces of the future by advancing products (automation and autonomy of machines) and processes (optimization of construction operations)

Towards the next 100 years, Komatsu will continue to create value through manufacturing and technology innovation to empower a sustainable future where businesses, people, and our planet thrive together.
