At the recently concluded China International Welfare Expo and China International Rehabilitation Exhibition, China Mobile's Embodied Intelligence Industry Innovation Center officially launched an electronic guide dog named "Lingxi." The release of this high-tech product marks a significant step forward in intelligent assistive tools, providing a new solution for the mobility of visually impaired individuals.
The "Lingxi" electronic guide dog uses advanced laser radar and monocular vision 3D reconstruction technology to obtain real-time location information and build high-precision maps. This map can be stitched together and supports complex indoor and outdoor environments, with centimeter-level accuracy to ensure the safety and precise navigation of visually impaired individuals while walking.
What is most impressive is that this electronic guide dog is equipped with an active navigation and obstacle avoidance system. It can detect surrounding dynamic obstacles in real time through multi-sensor fusion technology and plan the optimal walking path. This means that in complex environments, "Lingxi" can flexibly avoid obstacles and provide users with a smooth walking experience.
In addition, "Lingxi" is equipped with a physical guidance cane that can guide users to turn, accelerate, decelerate, and stop through immediate physical feedback. This design not only improves convenience but also ensures that users can better perceive their surroundings.
To enhance the user experience, visually impaired individuals can receive real-time information from "Lingxi" through bone conduction Bluetooth earphones, without affecting their ability to perceive environmental sounds. At the same time, this electronic guide dog can announce important information at a suitable pace for the user, helping them better understand their surroundings.
Beyond that, "Lingxi" has powerful visual recognition capabilities, accurately identifying specific objects and text, and is widely applicable in daily life scenarios such as supermarkets and stations. Additionally, it is embedded with China Mobile's "Jiutian" large model, enabling fluent natural language dialogue with users, further enhancing interaction.
The release of the "Lingxi" electronic guide dog undoubtedly adds a technological guarantee to the travel life of visually impaired individuals, allowing them to explore the world with more confidence.
