As WeRide's entry into multi-scenario sanitation applications, WeRide Robosweeper S1 is the world's first Level 4 autonomous driving sanitation equipment capable of covering all scenarios on open roads. It is equipped with WeRide's mature autonomous driving software and hardware systems, boasting 360-degree perception capabilities and industry-leading planning and control abilities. It can maintain close proximity to edges while flexibly navigating various static and dynamic obstacles, effectively sweeping various visible debris and solid particles from road surfaces. Additionally, it can conduct automatic garbage dumping and parking and can complement traditional sanitation methods effectively, ensuring comprehensive sanitation operations without blind spots.

![WeRide Sensor Suite 4.0
[Small and smart, enabling more accurate and reliable perception]
Through highly integrated sensors, WeRide Sensor Suite 4.0 (Suite 4.0) achieves a significant reduction in size compared to its predecessor, WeRide Sensor Suite 3.0. The product is one sixth the size of the last generation and occupies less than 0.4 square meters of roof area, allowing passengers to enjoy the vehicle’s sunroof. Suite 4.0 has a net weight of 13 kilograms, which is just 20 percent of the weight of the previous model and is the lightest sensor suite among the industry.
Suite 4.0 has packed in more advanced sensing technologies that includes LiDARs, 4D mm-wave imaging radar, solid-state LiDAR, blind spot LiDARs and WeRide in-house designed camera module. Suite 4.0 enables a 360-degree Field of View (“FoV”) with a front detection range up to 300 meters, blind-spot-free detection, accurate motion tracking and object identification.
[Simpler installation and lower cost for mass production]
It needs only 12 procedures to assemble a WeRide Sensor Suite 4.0. It is currently the most standardized solution in the industry, with production line installation completed within just 20 minutes per unit. Suite 4.0 itself can be assembled prior to the transportation to a vehicle production line for final installation thanks to the modular design. This not only ensures product quality consistency like the accuracy of the relative positions of the sensors, but also significantly improves self-driving vehicles’ production efficiency.
[Proprietary sensor cleaning system]
WeRide Sensor Suite 4.0 is equipped with a new proprietary sensor cleaning system, which can automatically detect dirt and stains on the sensor surfaces to trigger the cleaning system. The system adopts a mixture of high-pressure gas and liquid cleaning methods, and a single cleaning shot which takes just 1 second to clean the sensors. The method effectively removes water droplets, mud, dust, frost, oil and other obstructions from the sensors.
WeRide will further accelerate fully self-driving testing with the application of WeRide Sensor Suite 4.0, and promote a new way of smart transportation with safer, more efficient, affordable, and environmentally friendly solutions in shared mobility, on-demand public transportation, and urban logistics.
