Recently, the report about "high school students building unmanned bicycles won the Yau Chengtong Award" has aroused great concern in public opinion. Some netizens pointed out that this "Tesla", which is called the bicycle version by the media, is "exactly the same" as the unmanned bicycle sold online for about 20,000 yuan.
According to the Article published by Hangzhou Media Orange Persimmon Interactive Client on January 3, 2022, "Handsome and Can Play!" Hangzhou Ninth Middle School boys built a new type of driverless bicycle, won the winner of the world's top competition for middle school students, Zhejiang only" reported: "Recently, the 2021 Qiu Chengtong Middle School Science Award Finals came to an end, and Shi Moumou, a senior high school student from Hangzhou No. 9 Middle School, won the computer winner award in the finals and the first prize in the Chinese sub-region with the world's top ten results with the 'assisted driving self-balancing bicycle' project, which is also the only 'Qiu Award' in Zhejiang Province in 2021. ”
Hangzhou media released shi mou's award-winning work "assisted driving self-balancing bicycle".
For Shi's award-winning work, the above report said that "he was inspired by the "self-balancing bicycle equipped with Tianjic chip" invented by Tsinghua University... Built a bicycle version of 'Tesla'": In the nearly one year of building the car, he wrote code, did simulation experiments, constantly debugged the system, and finally successfully completed the entire bicycle project at the end of March 2021. At present, the path planning and decision-making module in the bicycle's "central brain" controls the level of the algorithm between L2-L3, second only to the automatic assisted driving level of tesla model 3.
However, after the release of the report, it caused many netizens to question. Some netizens have released screenshots on Zhihu and have sent a reporting fake email to Tsinghua University.
Some netizens said: "This thing is incomparably magical in the eyes of liberal arts students." In the eyes of science students, you can list the Taobao purchase list and the source code download address of the open source project. The so-called debugging is just a few digital parameters of pdi modified. The most annoying is this kind of exaggeration of taking foreign open source projects as their own inventions. ”
Netizens found unmanned bicycle sales store information from an e-commerce platform.
Some netizens believe that this bicycle version of "Tesla" is actually similar to the height of the self-driving bicycle previously released by Huawei engineer and B station well-known UP master "Zhihui Jun".

On January 7, the surging news reporter contacted the Hangzhou No. 9 Middle School where Shi X was located by phone. The staff of the Hangzhou No. 9 Middle School Office told the surging news reporter: "We (the school) have our own position on this matter. In response to this matter, I do not plan to release new news through the media, this child is now also taking the 'college entrance examination', which is a more critical time, so I also hope to protect his privacy. ”
According to the "Hangzhou No. 9 Middle School" WeChat public account on December 29, 2021: (2021) On December 20, Hangzhou No. 9 Middle School awarded the "Sunshine Student Special Award" to a student in the third (3) class of high school, commending his outstanding performance in scientific and technological innovation, creation and invention.
The surging news reporter learned from the relevant staff of Hangzhou Ninth Middle School that Shi Moumou is now "participating in the college entrance examination", which refers to the examination of elective subjects (physical, chemical, political and historical) and English subjects that Zhejiang Province will conduct in January every year, also commonly known as the small college entrance examination.
On the evening of the 7th, a doctoral blogger who has long been concerned about scientific and technological events on platforms such as Zhihu introduced to the surging news reporter that according to the information provided by media reports, the technical content of the award-winning works of so-and-so at the above time is not high, and it is already in the open source stage in terms of procedures, and the production process has been established at home and abroad.
The blogger said: "What Shi Moumou praises is his hands-on ability, that is, the execution of scientific research work, but the media's excessive reputation for him is not conducive to his growth." ”
