Co-hosted by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Cyberspace Administration of China, the China Association for Science and Technology, the Ministry of Trade and Industry of Singapore, and the Chongqing Municipal People’s Government, the Smart China Expo 2023 was held in Chongqing from September 4 to 6. With the theme of “Pooling together wisdom and strength”, the expo revolved around the four professional fields of intelligent connected new energy vehicles, intelligent equipment and manufacturing, new-generation information technology, and smart transportation with a focus on such hotspots of the year as “intelligent connected new energy vehicles” and “Digital China”.

As a leading full value chain automotive digital intelligence service provider, Lan-you Technology appeared at the expo with its cutting-edge technologies and innovation achievements, including smart IoV device-cloud integrated solutions, digital and intelligent manufacturing solutions, AIoT innovative solutions, and digital consulting. And it presented new products, technologies, and solutions of automotive digital intelligence, attracting numerous professional visitors for experiences and exchanges.

Smart IoV Device-cloud Integrated Solutions

Based on the concept of combining onboard entertainment with the internet and vehicle information, Lan-you Technology independently developed various onboard terminal products, including smart IoV products like the 4G/5G T-Box, 5G V2X T-Box, digital keys, vehicle controller VCM, intelligent gateway CCM, and automotive-grade modules, intelligent cockpit products like fivefold screens, mobile connected OBUs, and CMS electronic rearview mirrors, as well as intelligent driving products like the automatic parking domain controllerYDU1.0, driving planning control module YDU1.5, integrated driving and parking domain controllers YDU2.0 Pro and YDU2.0 Lite, and intelligent forward vision all-in-one unit MFC 1.0. These products empower auto companies to offer smart mobility experiences.

In particular, the Lan-you 4G T-Box is the first CAT4 automotive-grade T-Box achieving mass production, and also taking the lead in breaking through the mass production of one million units in China. And its cumulative shipments have recently exceeded4.3 million units. For three consecutive years (2020-2022), Lan-you has taken the top position among domestic competitors in terms of the cumulative share of front-mounted T-boxes for passenger cars. In addition, the 5G T-Box has been mass-produced since August 2021. And its multiple variants have demonstrated leading domestic independent full-stack R&D capabilities as well as large-scale production achievements.

Digital and intelligent manufacturing solutions: Enabling auto companies to reduce costs and increase efficiency

Based on one unified industrial internet platform, Lan-you Technology has developed eight core applications and identified three major lines of intelligent manufacturing – product chain, order chain, and equipment asset chain, realizing data control throughout the equipment operation process in manufacturing, from product design to product engineering and from sales orders to delivery. Thereby, it not only enables the auto companies to reduce costs and increase efficiency, but also allows them to upgrade the digital intelligence of their entire manufacturing value chain.

To build a benchmark digital and intelligent factory, it is necessary to support infinite synchronization with consumer demand, and improve refined management capabilities in flexibility, automation, digitization, visualization, traceability, etc. Based on the industrial internet platform, Lan-you Technology creates intelligent manufacturing solutions, which realize digital and intelligent manufacturing with the product value chain as the main line, and the integration of product, order, equipment, and management data.

Lan-you AIoT: Improving driving and riding experiences with technology

The Lan-you AIoT is an onboard interconnectivity ecosystem built with IoT wireless communication technology as the core. It enables onboard electronic products to be intelligent and connected with vehicles. Through direct control by the DA, Lan you AIoT can realize voice control, create scenarios, and allow interactions among multi-device, giving a new life to in-vehicle products.

Through a wide range of scalable onboard intelligent products, the Lan-you AIoT creates diverse intelligent application scenarios and provides systematic solutions that allows vehicles to expand IoT intelligent hardware infinitely. These solutions not  only bring new experiences to users, but also create new premium products and generate new profits for auto companies.

Digital Consulting: Further growth of digital and intelligent   consulting for auto companies

Based on the digital intelligence of the entire automotive value chain and from the perspective of top-level design, Lan-you Technology applies one advanced methodological framework to open up the entire process, supporting automakers in their digital and intelligent transformation, and achieving the goal of building a sustainable and digitally intelligent enterprise. Digital transformation is a complex and difficult systematic project. Lan-you Digital Consulting offers ten digital transformation consulting services in three major categories –top-level design consulting, business transformation solution design consulting, and associated services – by sticking to the general idea of “unified planning, distributed implementation, agile iteration, and value orientation”. Through top-down and layer-to-point business design, it empowers the digital transformation of companies in all scenarios.

To date, Lan-you Technology has successfully provided IT and digital transformation planning services for conglomerates, commercial and passenger vehicle entities, NEV manufacturers, powertrain corporations, parts suppliers, construction machinery firms, and dealer consortiums. For the digital transformation planning in the marketing field of a passenger vehicle company, Lan-you Technology focuses on the transformation principle of realizing customer value, from establishment of digitized organizational structure to the construction of a holistic digital capability. In addition, it takes a single business field as a breakthrough point and extends to the digitalization transformation of the entire business value chain. In support of the client’s digital transformation planning in the marketing field, Lan-you Technology has identified the main transformation line, constructed three user-centric “quick-win” scenarios, and provided the client with the ability to directly engage with users. Therefore, a new user operation model was established, enabling the shift from B2B2C to B2C,thereby crafting a novel marketing paradigm centered on direct customer engagement.

Automotive digital intelligence is a megatrend that has created broader space and opportunities for the industry’s development. Lan-you Technology will continue to be committed to the innovation and R&D of automotive digital products, solutions, and technologies, and create a new driving force for the digital and intelligent transformation and upgrading and value realization of auto companies!
