Yikong Zhijia specializes in unmanned driving technology for mining vehicles and offers full‑stack autonomous solutions and transport operation services for open‑pit mines. The company has developed a “4+2” solution: four core products (line‑control mining trucks, an intelligent cloud‑control platform, vehicle‑side autonomous driving systems, and a collaborative operation system) and two service modes (engineering operation and technology operation). It has deployed multi‑train, 24‑hour unmanned driving operations at large open‑pit coal mines under National Energy Group and Tebian Electric. Yikong Zhijia emphasizes real‑world operations to create a data loop and refine its technology. The company plans to use new funding to advance technical product development and improve unmanned driving operation management.
