Sidewalk delivery robots are becoming increasingly common on college campuses, where the neatly lined pavements and closed environment make for a safe place to test autonomous tech. If the bot meets something it hasn’t yet encountered, it can reach out to a remote operator for assistance.Īside from its partnership with Uber, Cartken has also linked up with Grubhub to bring bots to college campuses like Ohio State University. Cartken has said before that its robots operate fully autonomously under certain conditions. The robots have a number of cameras used to identify objects and help them reach their destination. Uber did not specify what the delivery radius would be, but the district is about 31 acres, or 0.5 square miles, according to the Fairfax County Department of Planning and Development.Ĭartken’s robots are electric and have a cargo capacity of around 1.5 cubic feet, or about two paper grocery bags. The Mosaic District is a shopping and dining center, and the bots will deliver food from restaurants to homes and businesses “in an around” the district, according to an Uber spokesperson. The companies first launched a pilot in Miami in December, which is ongoing. This is the second city where Uber and Cartken are partnering for commercial deliveries. Starting Thursday, Uber Eats customers around the Mosaic District can choose to have food from select merchants delivered via one of Cartken’s small, six-wheeled, autonomous bots. As always, all opinions, text, and photos are our own.Uber is expanding its partnership with sidewalk delivery robot startup Cartken to Fairfax, Virginia.
