这种半自动化的概念卡车可以在国际公路上行驶
This semi autonomous truck concept could travel on an international highway

Elon Musk向公众展示了他的半自动货车，类似的概念随处可见。其中一个极具雄心的想法来自于韩国设计师Muyeon Cho的Euro-x。 Muyeon Cho引用了Elon的一些美学元素，在梅赛德斯奔驰的设计中结合了空气动力学。从本质上讲，这辆车的设计分为三个部分：驾驶区、休息区和底盘。

Elon Musk revealed his semi truck to the world and now, similar concepts are popping up everywhere. One of the more ambitious of these is Korean designer Muyeon Cho’s, Euro-x. Muyeon Cho borrows Elon’s minimal aesthetic and reimagines it in the design voice of a Mercedes-benz with an aerodynamic edge. Essentially, this vehicle’s design is broken down into three sections: the driving area, the rest area, and the chassis.

虽然一些人准备在未来使用全自动汽车，但如今Cho的设计也与此有关，在设计中，这种半自动卡车仍有一个功能齐全的驾驶区。全自动技术日趋成熟，但是从手动驾驶过渡到全自动驾驶，仍需一个缓慢的过程。

While some people are ready for full autonomy to get here tomorrow, Cho’s design is more relevant today; this semi-autonomous truck still has a fully functional driving area included in the design. Autonomous technology is close, but the transition from manually piloting a vehicle, to sleeping soundly in the chase lounge chair of said vehicle, will be a slow one.

从半自动过渡到全自动不会在一朝一夕内完成。但随着工作舱和车底休息区的设置，Euro-x也许是当前最接近自动化的设计方法。Cho对于底盘的信息并没有透露太多，但他清楚地知道半自动的每次操作周期为5000公里。

Autonomy will not happen overnight. But with a working cockpit and a resting area underneath, the Euro-x could be a near-future solution during an age of great transition. Cho doesn’t say much about his chassis, but he is aware that semis often operate for periods of 5,000 kilometers at a time.

根据Cho的说法，道路才是影响半自动汽车行驶的因素。Cho想象是否可以有这样一条国际高速公路，在这里汽车能够自动行驶，而驾驶员则位于后方的休息室中休息。如果要使这种构思成立，也许还需要多种极具创意的设计作品。

The vast distances semis travel may not change, but their paths, according to Cho, just might. Cho imagines an international highway, where self-driving semis drive for days and drivers chill below deck. If he is correct, will pioneer these roads, or some even more ambitious design?
