This Self-Driving Food Delivering Robot Could Soon Arrive at Your Door

Description

The first self-driving delivery robot roamed the streets of Austin during the city's SXSW festival, on Monday. The robot, produced by former Skype founders Starship, can deliver food, groceries and small packages for as little as $1 within a 1 mile radius. The six-wheeled robot is able to deliver items up to 3 miles over a period of up to 30 minutes while users are able to follow the robot's route via the smartphone app. The inventors feel confident that the robot's movements are safe for pedestrians and traffic. The delivery robot is already operational in over 60 cities in 5 different countries and its models have already traveled a combined 20,000 miles. How would you like to have a robot knocking at your door with your grocery delivery?
