الملخص | Self-driving robots are revolutionizing foods, groceries, and package deliveries. They are a reality and becoming a part of urban life in many cities. Initially, people are curious about robots but after robots have been in an area for some time, they get used to it. They provide convenient services to improve our everyday life. In the USA alone, robots are used on more than a dozen college campuses for food delivery. The typical size of delivery robots is like luggage. Some robots are similarly small-sized and others are significantly larger and heavier. Small-sized robots run through sidewalks and the larger ones on public roads. Estonian-origin Starship robots have delivered two million autonomous deliveries in different cities across the world since they started three years ago. In September 2021, the company announced plans to deploy 500 robots for the supermarket chain co-op in multiple cities in the UK. Currently, it has several thousands of robots in UK, USA, and some European countries. Nuro’s and Robomart’s fully autonomous robots are large and use open roads to carry fresh food in cool and heated chambers. Eliport is a Barcelona-based start-up that claims to have four-wheeled robots that, unlike other delivery robots, load and unload autonomously instead of packing by human hand. |
