The L4-level low-speed driverless vending vehicle, launched by the Hunan Apollo Intelligent Transportation, started trial operation at the park since this July. It integrates laser radar, camera, ultrasonic radar and other sensors, allowing it to patrol and vend autonomously at the park. If tourists have purchase needs, they can stop the driverless vending vehicle, click on the screen, and then follow the prompts to buy and pay via mobile phone.
