In January 2024, KUSA Technology's L4 cleaning robot, KUSA StarSweep, went into operation on urban roads in Shengze Town, Wujiang District, Suzhou City. Since its last operation in the Songling Street urban area of Wujiang District, KUSA StarSweep has successfully extended its operation area to Shengze Town in Wujiang District, thus covering a wider range of towns and cities.

As an important textile production and trading centre, Shengze Town, known as the "Silk Capital of the Millennium", has always insisted on a high-quality ecological environment to support high-quality development, and has high demands on the city's image. The introduction of advanced unmanned cleaning robots is particularly important for improving the quality of the urban environment. In the auxiliary road operation scene in Shengze town, in addition to the common standard auxiliary road, that is, the road on both sides of the road with auxiliary roads and pavements, and auxiliary roads and pavements clear boundaries of the road, there are also some auxiliary roads and pavements mixed with the use of non-standard roads. As non-motorised vehicles and pedestrians are intertwined, this complex scenario brings considerable challenges to the sweeping operation.

However,KUSA StarSweep can also flexibly cope with various challenges on non-standard roads. With its powerful sensing and decision-making ability, KUSA StarSweep senses the changes in the surrounding environment in real time, navigates, plans paths and identifies obstacles autonomously. This not only ensures the quality of the sweeping work, but also steadily increases the efficiency of the single vehicle operation. KUSA's cloud-based operation management system keeps an eye on every detail of KUSA StarSweep's work. It not only monitors and schedules Star Hyun™ remotely to ensure its efficient operation, but also collects and analyses Star Hyun™'s work data in real time, which helps to further improve Star Hyun™'s operational capability. In the future, KUSA StarSweep will continue to optimise its operational capacity and maintain operational stability, and make positive contributions to the smart sanitation work in more cities.
