These adorable little six-wheeled robots will begin their deliveries in London and three other European cities. The robots will be deployed this month to make deliveries for food-ordering services Just Eat and Pronto, and carry packages for courier service Hermes and supermarket Metro Group. They will be stationed at kitchens, delivery hubs, and supermarkets in London, Düsseldorf, Bern, and Hamburg. When an order comes in, the robots will drive themselves to collect their cargo, store it in their holds (which can take about two shopping bags’ worth of stuff), then trundle on to their destinations. When the robot arrives, the recipient unlocks it by punching in a security code on a mobile app.
