PIX Moving & Yukuang Technology Collaborate to Deploy Autonomous Driving Shuttle Services in Various Scenarios
PIX Moving and Shengke Yukuang Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as “Yukuang Technology”) have joined forces in a partnership to bring autonomous driving shuttle services to various scenarios, including smart parks, communities, universities, and scenic areas across the country. The collaborative project was recently featured on CCTV13 News Channel during the “2023 China National Computer Congress (CNCC2023).”
Under the agreement, PIX Moving will provide the Moving Space, a remote control version of the RoboBus, along with perception solutions. Yukuang Technology will contribute the intelligent driving system and provide the daily operation and maintenance of the shuttle services.
The successful implementation of the first collaborative project took place in August 2023 at Shenyang Jiuzhou Yujing, where residents were introduced to a new and convenient autonomous driving shuttle service. This project has also become one of the pioneering intelligent technology demonstration parks in Northeast China, integrating art, technology, and community gardens to provide a futuristic living experience and enhance residents’ quality of life.
Apart from offering autonomous driving shuttle services in communities, the partnership aims to expand their collaboration to closed and semi-closed environments such as airports, scenic areas, and large-scale parks.
