07:56 Mar 2, 2022
'Meet the autonomous delivery robots which are shaping the future of food delivery. These could also be used during coronavirus when everbody is staying home.  Starship A six-wheeled ground drone from Starship Technologies. Equipped with a sensor suite that includes cameras, GPS and inertial measurement units, the robot can deliver items within a 6km radius. It has a large compartment to hold deliveries equivalent to the size of two grocery bags with a maximum weight of 10kg. Once the robot has arrived at the customer, the compartment is opened using a unique code generated after placing the order from a smartphone app. In March 2017, Dominos entered into a partnership with Starship Technologies to use the latter\'s robots as \"personal delivery devices\" The company plans to distribute thousands of robots across campuses around the world by 2019.   Kiwi Kiwi is an autonomous delivery robot that picks up and delivers food and personal-care items within a roughly 1.6 square kilometers area centered around campus. The robot uses Deep Learning to correctly interpret data gathered from its sensors and to make intelligent decisions that ensure a fast, safe and cost-efficient delivery.  It can correctly identify traffic lights in order to cross streets and detect objects and obstacles to avoid collisions in a safe, reliable manner.  Robomart Robomart, a literally little mini-mart on wheels. It is engineered with cutting-edge technology, including driverless tech for autonomy and teleoperations, an RFID and computer vision-based checkout-free system, and purpose-built refrigeration and temperature control. The bots are now used by Grocery store chain, Stop & Shop to deliver groceries to its customers. When customers want to buy some groceries, they simply tap a button in a smartphone app to request the nearest robomart. Once it arrives, they head outside, unlock the doors, and pick the products they want.  Robomart tracks what customers have taken using patent-pending \"grab and go\" checkout-free technology and will charge them and send a receipt accordingly.   TeleRetail Robot Using artificial intelligence to automate local logistics and minimize the ecological footprint of transportation, TeleRetail wants to help Main Street shops and small businesses to compete with major e-commerce companies like Amazon. The robot is made by the Swiss startup TeleRetail founded in 2014 by Torsten Scholl with the aim of solving the logistical problems of local businesses.  With its 84 centimeter width and capability to carry up to 35  kilograms payloads, the robot is designed to travel on sidewalks, covering long distances up to about 80 kilometers   Amazon Scout Entering the race of autonomous delivery robots is nonother than the e-commerce giant, Amazon.  Amazon Scout,  a six-wheeled self-driving delivery machine that is \"the size of a small cooler\". Walking at a human pace,  Scout uses self-driving technology to navigate through neighborhoods to deliver packages to Amazon Prime Customers. The vehicle appears large enough to accommodate small and medium-sized parcels, but no word yet on what\'s under the hood.   FedEx SameDay Bot So far, FedEx SameDay Bot is the latest of a long line of last-mile delivery robots that transport small packages from shops or local distribution centers directly to consumers. FedEx says it will refine it, and then begin deployment as soon as the company’s engineers are satisfied with its performance. The bot is being developed by FedEx in collaboration with DEKA Development & Research Corp., the company behind mobility device iBot.  It features pedestrian-safe tech, multiple cameras,  Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) and machine learning to help it detect and avoid obstacles, and navigate uneven surfaces.  Updates: Domino pizza chain announced that it has entered into a partnership with Nuro, a robotics delivery startup, to test using its robots to transport pizzas from a store in Houston.
