Hong Kong-based dynamic technology company Teksbotics and Chinese leading autonomous driving company UISEE have launched and piloted the driverless delivery vehicle in the community of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia.
According to the statement, the driverless delivery vehicle project intends to connect with local online eCommerce in Saudi Arabia and provide affordable as well as convenient autonomous delivery services.
“The residents in the local community can interact with the delivery vehicle through mobile phone text messages and the touch screen installed on the body of the vehicle to complete the express delivery service,” the company said. The autonomous delivery vehicle will be expanded to additional cities and locations in the future.
This vehicle is based on Teksbotics UNO autonomous delivery vehicle specially designed for the Middle East market and UISEE’s UiBox smart city autonomous driving service solution, as per the statement.
The vehicle can accurately detect people and objects while autonomously driving on open roads, and complete the full process of delivery service, ensuring the safe delivery of packages to their destinations.
As one of the world’s leading and Hong Kong’s largest autonomous driving solution providers, Teksbotics aims to help customers automate transportation, distribution, and patrolling. Teksbotics has rich experience in the design, project operation, and maintenance of autonomous driving solutions in the self-driving vehicle industry.
