The demonstration application route covers core areas such as Shenzhen Bay MixC, Poly Cultural Plaza, and Talent Park, and can provide artificial intelligence travel services for surrounding living areas, commercial areas, leisure and cultural areas, etc. In the future, the "Radish Run" operation route will continue to expand, and it is expected that by the end of 2022, the scale of stations in the travel service area will reach more than 300.
