Electric robot for home delivery
A self-driving home delivery robot is presently being launched. The robot runs at a speed of 6.5 km per hour and carries 9 kg. The aim is to support the growing e-commerce through a cheap solution for consumer home delivery. The robot will carry out the last transport link which is often the most expensive part of the transport chain. Prototypes are presently made public and the aim is to be in operation next year in the UK and USA. The propulsion system is based on electricity and batteries.
