EHang | UAM - EHang's Smart Logistics Ecosystem

EHang's Smart Logistics Ecosystem

Based on big data, EHang's smart logistics ecosystem uses cloud computing and autonomous aerial
vehicles (AAVs) to build the aerial logistics network via air transportation. The accuracy and speed
of logistics operation within the region is improved toward the extreme, in an effort to formulate the
global standard of AAV logistics system in the mode of "AAV + General Aviation". The difficulties in
delivering goods to urban and rural areas, industrial parks and islands will be solved and a more
intelligent and convenient shopping environment will thus be created.

Automated Route Planning and
Execution of Flight Missions

EHang logistics AAVs will fly along with the pre-programmed route, and complete the
pre-programmed task. There is no need for manual intervention over the course,
improving the delivery efficiency. Accurate go-around of the route ensures that the
performance efficiency of logistics is constant with safety guaranteed.

Standardized Process Specification

EHang has formulated a clear and strict standardized process for aerial logistics, including
pre-inspections and special circumstances in flight. In terms of operation, we require relevant personnel
to operate the logistics AAVs in strict accordance with specifications.

Economize on Labor Costs
and Improve Efficiency Significantly

Compared with traditional logistics, the delivery time is saved by 40% to 60%
Scaled delivery is expected to reduce costs by 50%

Intelligent, Unmanned and Networked

The open mission interface, customized cargo bay refit and networked flight control and data
interaction capabilities of EHang's intelligent AAVs are more suitable for the real-use requirements of
various logistics scenarios, realizing an unmanned intelligent operation.

EHang 216 (Logistics)

Adhering to the full redundancy safety design and Fail-Safe system, EHang 216 (Logistics)
employs the coaxial propellers design with 8 arms and 16 propellers, whose core
system is equipped with redundancy backup. Under the networked supervision
and monitoring of command and dispatch center, it can realize accurate
vertical take-off and landing, along with the automatic flight on an inverted
U-shaped route.

Falcon B (Logistics)

Falcon B (Logistics) refined by one-piece carbon fiber molding, equipped with
visual system and designed with 4 arms-8 propellers for power backup. The flight
control system uses dual sensors and the redundancy design of double GPS with
coaxial propellers, greatly enhancing safety. The software provides intelligent
applications for automated return after disconnection and automated return or
landing after low power. One-button return, emergency hover, intelligent
operation and control over take-off and landing maximize the safety of
operators, ensuring that the aircraft and mission modules are not susceptible to
damages.

GD2.0X (Logistics)

The built-in 4G module is in support of ultra-long distance control. It employs the
design of streamlined cabin, efficiently reducing wind resistance, adapting to
various logistics application scenarios, such as urban express delivery and
last-mile delivery. It can be activated with one button to realize automatic
take-off, cruise, landing and aerial delivery. Auxiliary positioning with visual
system ensures the accuracy of its vertical takeoff and landing.

Command and Control System

The waybill management software covers the whole execution process. For example, it can realize task distribution and tracking in on-demand food delivery scenarios through user end, merchant end, delivery end, monitoring end and others alike in an intuitive and convenient manner.

Real-Time Progress
Upgrading

Users can complete information binding and order
generation through the APP/platform for user end. In the
meantime, they can track order status and the real-time
progress of drone delivery.

Mass Waybill
Management

Merchants can complete the receipt, management,
tracking and record of orders through the APP/platform for
merchants; the traceable order delivery management can
track the whole process of drone delivery.

Flight Mission Tracking

Deliverymen can complete task acquisition, order
closing and real-time tracking of drone delivery
through the APP/platform for delivery end.

Ensure Operation
Safety

It conducts real-time monitoring over all drones
and processes analysis and dealings with data
from each flight on the cloud.

Use Case

YONGHUI

Join hands with Yonghui Group to build the world's first flagship store for "aerial grocery delivery services + smart retailing".

In June 2018, the flagship store was launched in Guangzhou to present smart retailing experience with a sense of science and technology. Fresh food delivery would be completed in 30 minutes within five kilometers of the perimeter. By facilitating aerial logistics with logistics AAVs and empowering retail industry with technology, the consumption scenario experience is constantly innovated for customers.

DHL-Sinotrans

Cooperate with DHL-Sinotrans to jointly launch the fully automated smart drone delivery solution

The pilot project is carried out in Songshanhu area, Dongguan City, Guangdong Province. Integrated with intelligent cabinets, EHang smart drone delivery solution realizes smart functions of automatic charging of AAVs, automatic sorting of warehouse and parcels, self-service sending and receiving of parcels, etc. In the effort, it will realize unmanned operation in the application scenario of express logistics.
