SELF-DRIVING trucks adopting AI technologies in visual recognition, environment detection and extreme precision positioning are being used in ports, helping to save labor cost and improve work efficiency for logistic firms and the ports.

The “heart” of the truck is an AI-featured chip, which is developed by a Shanghai-based startup Westwell.

The startup, which just released self-driving brand Qomolo, has joined hands with three listed firms including Shanghai Zhenhua Heavy Industries Co to adopt applications in ports including overseas.

Westwell focuses on helping firm to “land” AI technologies, said Tan Limin, the firm’s CEO.

Horizon Robotics and Cambricon are displaying latest AI chips in B2 Hall of WAIC.

Horizon’s strategy is to focus on applying chips featuring AI in smart driving and smart city.
