China Society of Automotive Engineers Annual Conference | HE Liyang: SERES' "New Vehicles, New Safety, New Exploration"
On October 22, the 32nd Annual Conference of the Society of Automotive Engineers of China was held in Chongqing. He Liyang, President of SERES, was invited to attend and delivered a keynote speech titled "New Vehicles, New Safety, New Exploration". He pointed out that the global automotive industry is accelerating its transformation towards intelligence, electrification, and connectivity. While this process brings new safety challenges, it also breeds development opportunities. In the face of the new situation, SERES was the first to propose the concept of "defining safety by scenarios" and systematically built an intelligent safety system covering the entire vehicle life cycle, promoting the shift of automotive safety from "passive protection" to "intelligent safety" and "wise guardianship".
"The evolution of automotive safety is not only an upgrade of technology but also a profound transformation of safety concepts." In his speech, He Liyang systematically reviewed the development process of automotive safety from "passive safety", "active safety" to "comprehensive safety" and pointed out that the industry is making a crucial leap towards "intelligent safety". Driven by electrification and intelligence, battery safety, vehicle architecture, and assisted driving systems are accelerating cross - domain integration and integrated decision - making, promoting intelligent vehicle safety to a new stage of systematization and intelligence.
From the industry evolution to corporate practice, He Liyang explained the intelligent safety system built by SERES. Centered around the concept of "defining safety by scenarios", this system covers four major safety areas: "life protection, vehicle body protection, health care, and privacy protection", covering more than 190 vehicle - using scenarios and integrating more than 340 safety functions. It is committed to providing systematic protection throughout the entire life cycle of users' vehicle use in the travel ecosystem where people, vehicles, and objects are deeply integrated.
Centering around the concept of "defining safety by scenarios", SERES systematically transforms its technological capabilities into a full - scenario safety experience that users can perceive and verify. In the field of life protection, technologies such as super - capacitor unlocking, incapacity assistance, and satellite communication are used to achieve "never - dropping" safety redundancy; in terms of vehicle body protection, relying on the environmental perception and obstacle recognition system, all - direction protection functions such as negative - direction collision avoidance and AEB in rain, fog, and dust are created, which have cumulatively avoided more than 2 million potential collisions; at the level of health care, a "five - sense health cockpit space" is constructed through the application of medical - grade air disinfection air conditioners, baby - clothing - grade interior fabrics, and advanced high - end adsorption and decomposition materials; in terms of privacy protection, full - scenario data protection is implemented to safeguard users' data security.
The height of the concept can only be verified by the depth of engineering. He Liyang further introduced SERES' systematic layout in the fields of full - scenario simulation and full - dimension testing. Currently, the company has built a virtual verification system covering more than 1,300 simulation scenarios and more than 30,000 test cases, which helps the manufacturing process avoid more than 3,000 potential quality risks in advance and shortens the production line installation and commissioning cycle by more than 40%. At the same time, SERES' cumulative test mileage has exceeded 13 million kilometers, covering more than 100,000 real - user scenarios, comprehensively verifying the safety and reliability of products from daily use to extreme conditions.
SERES has always adhered to the concept of openness, cooperation, and win - win. He Liyang said that the construction of the intelligent safety system involves the collaboration of a large and complex industrial chain, which is a long - term and arduous exploration path. In the future, SERES will join hands with universities, industry partners, and scientific research institutions to jointly build an intelligent safety ecosystem, promote industry co - construction and sharing in a more open attitude, and jointly safeguard the safety bottom line of intelligent travel.
