The unmanned delivery vehicle has been a hot topic in recent years, and it is also a key area for the layout of e-commerce giants. Last year, the unmanned delivery vehicle developed by JD.com has been put into use at Renmin University, Tsinghua University and other colleges and universities. Recently, Suning also brought its latest achievement in unmanned delivery vehicles - Wolong No. 1. The body of Wolong No. 1 is equipped with multi-line lidar, GPS and other types of sensors, which can realize functions such as route planning and obstacle avoidance. The difference from other unmanned delivery vehicles is that Wolong No. 1 has an elevator interaction function, that is to say, this express delivery vehicle can deliver packages to your door.
At present, Suning has tested the 'Wolong No. 1' in a residential area in Nanjing. According to residents of the community, after Suning.com placed an order, they received an arrival notice the next morning, but when they opened the door, they saw a courier truck with the words Suning Logistics.
Although e-commerce giants have launched their own unmanned express delivery business, home delivery is currently the first case. Suning said that 'Wolong No. 1' will be a wooden cow and a horse in the era of smart retail. It will be put into use in 1,000 communities in the future, based on community services, so that more people can feel the convenient experience brought by new technologies.
