Leveraging algorithmic advantages and software capabilities, Robonets' technology selection is forward-looking. It takes the lead in adopting a technical architecture that combines Single-Vehicle Intelligence with a Cloud-based Intelligent Brain. Through Cloud-Edge Collaboration, it quickly adapts to mine-specific operating scenarios such as continuously changing boundaries and huge noise interference, thereby achieving efficient, accurate, and agile mine unmanned driving.

Currently, Robonets has mature formation operation capability. On the premise of ensuring safety and efficiency, it has realized the stable mixed operation of manned and unmanned vehicles, achieving dual-track operation of product upgrading and order delivery. As a result, it has gained recognition and support from leading industry partners. The cumulative equity investment amount has reached the billion-yuan level, providing sufficient support for orders and cash flow.

The unmanned mining trucks infused with vitality by Robonets operate flexibly in the mines of Hailar. The trajectory of vehicle operation becomes the capillaries for the vigorous development of mines, and also outlines a beautiful picture of technology serving humanity and AI liberating productivity. There is a long way to go, and Robonets will continue to invest in technological iteration to enable unmanned mining trucks to achieve safety "acceleration".
