As WeRide's flagship product for intelligent sanitation scenarios, WeRide sanitation vehicles are equipped with WeRide's self-developed autonomous driving software and hardware architecture, and are equipped with a variety of high-precision sensors and artificial intelligence algorithms. They can efficiently and accurately complete various urban sanitation operations such as road sweeping, water sprinkling and dust reduction, spraying and disinfection, etc. They can also automatically identify road conditions, avoid pedestrians and obstacles, ensure safety and reliability, and improve cleaning efficiency. At the same time, WeRide sanitation vehicles use pure electric drive, which can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by nearly 10,000 kg per month on average, ensuring their own low-carbon emissions while deeply enabling the green transformation of Singapore's sanitation industry.
Singapore government officials, companies, and well-known media such as Lianhe Zaobao, MotherShip, The STRAITS TIMES, NewsSWSV, and Ground NEWS have given high praise to WeRide sanitation vehicles.
Mr. Xu Fengda, Minister of Transport and Second Minister of Finance of Singapore, expressed his belief on the LinkedIn platform that new sanitation technologies can help cleaning companies improve productivity.
