'Behold The Future https://www.beholdthefuture.com/ We believe our robots will revolutionise neighbourhood deliveries, offering people convenient new services that improve everyday life. With a combination of mobile technology, specially designed robots and a local hub system, we aim to make local delivery faster, smarter and more cost-efficient. Starship Technologies is a company developing small self-driving robotic delivery vehicles (unmanned ground vehicles). The company is headquartered in San Francisco, California, with engineering operations in Tallinn, Estonia.[1] \"Starship Technologies, Inc.\" was incorporated in Delaware, USA, on 3 December 2015, with a registered corporate address in Sherman Oaks, CA The electric-powered rovers ride on sidewalks at a pedestrian speed (max 6 km/h), can be remote-controlled if autonomous operation fails, and will only be used for relatively short-range local delivery. The robots are equipped with a sensor suite that includes cameras, GPS and inertial measurement unit, possibly also other sensors but notably no LIDAR. The robot will have microphones and speakers, so they can communicate with humans they meet. Starship Technologies plans to launch pilot services in 2016, in the US and the UK among other countries, with commercial service starting in 2017. Since 2016, Starship delivery robots have been used by the Wolt online food ordering service in Tallinn.[10][11] In March 2017, Dominos entered into a partnership with Starship Technologies to use the latter\'s robots as \"personal delivery devices\" https://www.starship.xyz/ ---------------------------------------- Local Delivery Robot by Starship Technologies A revolutionary, self-driving local delivery robot created by Starship Technologies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yL2MZDTVjKU ------------------------------------------ The First Starship Robot Delivery in Redwood City, California In November 2016, a Starship Delivery Robot made its first delivery in Redwood City, California. The local bakery, Cafe La Tartine used a Starship Robot to deliver 15 chocolate cookies to a house in the local neighbourhood. Starship Technologies have built the world\'s first commercially available autonomous delivery robot. The robots have been running in 100 cities and 20 countries, in the aim to bring affordable, convenient and efficient on-demand delivery to consumers and businesses. They deliver groceries, takeaway food and packages on a daily basis in 6 cities across 4 countries around the world. Each robot has a sensor suite to enable it to drive autonomously, avoid obstacles and cross roads safely. The robot is locked during a delivery and has tracking to the nearest inch, cameras and alarms. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DW16O6UWtSc ------------------------------------------ Starship Campus Delivery Service with Robots Starship robots are now delivering food, drinks, parcels and other items on corporate and academic campuses around the world. This new service allows staff the freedom to choose how and where to spend their time during the day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_zRwq9c8LY ------------------------------------------ Robovan - Future Proof Local Delivery Robovan - a partnership between Starship Technologies and Mercedes-Benz Vans. ’Robovan’, the world\'s first transportation system that integrates specially-adapted vans with autonomous delivery robots to allow efficient delivery of goods in neighbourhoods. Instead of completing door-to-door delivery, the vans will drive to pre-agreed locations to load and unload goods and then dispatch the robots in the final step for on-demand delivery. Upon making the customer delivery, the robots will autonomously find their way back to the van for re-loading. Starship Technologies and Mercedes-Benz Vans entered a cooperation earlier this summer after studying the needs and requirements of their customers, with a view to offer customers unprecedented flexibility, convenience and control over their deliveries. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzwz1UsxYdk ----------------------------------------- Starship Technologies Youtube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-XAfJfuf73xLjheIMELkZg/feed #DeliveryRobot #StarshipTechnologies #smartdelivery'
