A robotic vehicle originally used for delivering packages has been converted to deliver food to people working at the Changsha Economic and Technical Development Zone in Central China's Hunan province as a way to reduce the risk of infection associated with the novel coronavirus.
Developed by Changsha Xingshen Intelligent Technology Co Ltd, the vehicle's interior is equipped with ultraviolet disinfection functions.
It will send users messages after setting off. The vehicle will open its door automatically after users scan a quick code on its screen and input a verification code.
According to its destinations, the vehicle is able to plan the routes and avoid vehicles and passengers. It can deliver up to 200 meals during one trip.
