Mount Wutai, recognized by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage site and one of China's Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains, embodies profound religious and cultural heritage alongside serene natural landscapes. Adjacent to it, the Fanjingli Cultural Tourism Town aims to provide comprehensive services for pilgrims and tourists, serving as a vital hub connecting traditional sacred sites with modern tourism consumption.
However, this unique geographical and functional positioning presents unprecedented challenges for internal transportation:
Environmental and Atmospheric Constraints: In the vicinity of the sacred Buddhist site, any vehicle's noise and exhaust emissions disrupt the religious atmosphere and ecological purity. Traditional fuel-powered shuttle buses generate noise and emissions that clash with Mount Wutai's tranquil and harmonious ethos.
Efficient Management of Diverse Passenger Flows: The town must serve pilgrims visiting temples, tourists shopping in commercial areas, and hotel guests. Passenger flows are diverse and unevenly distributed, requiring a highly flexible and responsive shuttle system.
Terrain and Experience Considerations: Located in mountainous terrain, the town's roads feature slopes and curves, demanding higher vehicle power and safety. The shuttle journey itself should not merely be a spatial transition but also a cultural prelude from the bustling city to a spiritual sanctuary.
Addressing these challenges, Daod Intelligent Vehicles delivers a deep-customized "hardware + software + service" integrated mobility ecosystem.
Silent Zero-Emission Powertrain: All shuttle buses use high-performance lithium iron phosphate batteries, achieving zero tailpipe emissions. Advanced electric drive systems and sound insulation reduce noise to below 55 decibels, ensuring vehicles operate like silent guardians, preserving the acoustic environment and air purity.
Mountain-Terrain Adaptation: Vehicles feature optimized electric control systems and chassis for slopes and curves, with regenerative braking ensuring power continuity, safety, and energy efficiency.
Cultural Aesthetic Integration: Vehicle exteriors are co-designed with the town's planners, featuring low-saturation colors inspired by traditional architecture and mountain hues, blending harmoniously with the environment.
Dynamic Demand Response System: Doda's proprietary intelligent dispatch platform integrates with the town's ticketing, hotel, and crowd-monitoring systems. AI algorithms analyze real-time passenger flows, dynamically adjusting frequencies and routes to minimize wait times.
Full Lifecycle Health Management: Each vehicle is equipped with IoT sensors monitoring battery health and motor status. Data is uploaded to the cloud for predictive analysis, enabling proactive maintenance and ensuring high fleet availability.
Immersive Onboard Guided Tours: Vehicles feature multimedia systems that use GPS to trigger audio tours at cultural nodes (e.g., town square, viewing platforms), covering Buddhist culture, historical stories, and local attractions.
Seamless Service Integration: The shuttle service is integrated with the town's official mini-program, allowing real-time vehicle tracking, estimated arrival times, and personalized route suggestions based on shuttle schedules.
