The recently released plan for the pilot area of Beijing's intelligent networked vehicles encourages development of service conditions and management measures for the commercial operation of unmanned delivery vehicles.
Such vehicles can already be spotted in Nanhaizi Park.
In Nanhaizi Park, an autonomous vending vehicle named "Yilu" is driving on the park road.
You just need to wave to the machine developed by Neolix and scan the code on the shopping screen to place an order; you can buy what you want in five seconds.
In addition, this unmanned vehicle can calculate the area where the crowd is most likely to purchase according to the real-time distribution of the flow of people, and drive to this area with targeted products.
On the other side of the park, Idriverplus's unmanned street cleaner "Woxiaobai" is cleaning the square.
The car adopts the most cutting-edge intelligent AI technology and unmanned driving technology, and integrates multi-source sensing technology, fusion positioning technology and intelligent decision-making technology, which improves the efficiency of environmental sanitation.
In another corner, a long-necked security inspection unmanned vehicle is also working. Whether it finds itself on a dirt road, a cross road, a slope or a flat piece of ground it can proceed freely and achieve 24-hour uninterrupted patrol.
This unmanned vehicle, also developed by Idriverplus, effectively supplements the security patrol force through functions such as panoramic monitoring, intelligent identification, remote disposal, and deterrent alarm.
In the next step, the Beijing Economic and Technological Development Area (BDA) will encourage fully-proven intelligent connected vehicles to take the lead in trial operations and commercial operation services in the Policy Pilot Zone. They will cover autonomous driving travel services, intelligent connected buses, autonomous driving logistics vehicles and similar matters.
