As early as December 2017, the launch of the Internet dream trucks of SIH opened a new era of intelligent networking of heavy trucks in China. In January 2018, the autonomous container trucks of SIH started the driving program according to the pre-arranged working plan, identified surrounding objects such as containers, mechanical equipment, and lighthouses, automatically and accurately entered the designated operation position of the gantry crane, and finally completed the allocation and transportation of goods in port areas.
