KUALA LUMPUR, June 21 (Bernama) -- WeRide, a global leader in autonomous driving technology, announced a partnership with Chye Thiam Maintenance (CTM), Singapore’s renowned sanitation company, to jointly advance the commercial deployment of WeRide Robosweepers in Singapore.
According to a statement, the first batch of WeRide Robosweepers has successfully arrived in the country and begun safety testing, with official operations expected to commence by the end of this year.
The partnership between WeRide and CTM will provide the latest cutting-edge technology and high-quality unmanned sanitation services for urban cleaning in Singapore.
WeRide Robosweeper S6 features multiple high-precision sensors and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, enabling it to efficiently perform various urban sanitation tasks such as road sweeping, water spraying, and disinfection.
The Robosweeper can automatically detect road conditions, avoid pedestrians and obstacles, ensuring safe and reliable operation while enhancing cleaning efficiency.
Additionally, the WeRide Robosweeper is powered by an all-electric drive system, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by nearly 10,000 kilogrammes per month on average, to ensure its low-carbon footprint while significantly contributing to the green transformation of Singapore's sanitation sector.
As the country achieved remarkable results in urban sanitation, with tree-lined streets, numerous gardens, and a picturesque landscape, earning it the reputation of a "Garden City", the launch in Singapore marks WeRide’s successful entry into the global market, expanding its commercial landscape and potential.
WeRide will view Singapore as a strategic centre, collaborate with local partners, and rapidly enter the Southeast Asian sanitation market, bringing efficient and high-quality unmanned sanitation services to more countries and cities.
Since September 2022, WeRide's smart sanitation services have been rolled out in multiple cities, including Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Beijing. These deployments contribute to model projects for smart city development, enhancing the livability and tourism appeal of these urban areas.
