World's First Robot Delivery Service by Inspiro100: 5:33pm On Mar 06, 2017 |
“Just Eat” a U.K.-based company is changing the delivery game. It is responsible for the first delivery of food using a robot in the UK. The six wheeler robots are designed and manufactured by Starship Technologies, which was established by the co-founders of Skype in 2014.The robots are designed to deliver food, packages and goods to consumers within a short radius of their point of origin. Although it may sound somewhat unbelievable, these robots have already driven close to 8,000 km and met over 400,000 people without any accident recorded. When customers place orders, they have the option to choose if the delivery be made by a robot or a delivery person. If a robot delivery service is chosen, the customer is sent a message when the robot commences the journey. When the robot arrives outside the customer's door, the customer will receive another text message with a code to open the cargo hold of the robot and take out their food. These robots make use of cameras, sensors and other technology to navigate their way through metropolitan streets, avoiding obstacles and cross roads safely. At the moment, Just Eat plans to keep its delivery robots exclusive to the U.K. On the other hand, Starship Technologies the manufacturer the robots are running test deliveries in other parts of the world. What do you think about having such a great delivery system in Nigeria? source: http://inspiro.com.ng/index.php/2017/03/06/worlds-first-rob…delivery-service/
