  • Starship Technologies has partnered with delivery companies across the world to test autonomous, six-wheeled robots. But are city pedestrians ready to share pavements with them? The FT's Daniel Garrahan follows one delivering pizzas in south London.

      it can be controlled remotely at the command center if it gets stuck..

  • @thesteelrodent1796

    can't find any evidence that these have ever been deployed in Denmark. And they're also problematic because our laws about autonomous vehicles are a bit convoluted (basically it's not allowed on public streets).

    • @ursamajor6347
      @ursamajor6347 Před 8 měsíci

      I assure you they have been deployed. I live in a major US city and we have them here. The first time I saw one was last night and it was so wild it was just trucking on down the sidewalk that is actually what prompted me to search for this video. Iinterestingl, the other pedestrians weren't even looking at it which tells me they've grown used to seeing the robot so it's been here a while.

  • @SuperRaikouz
    @SuperRaikouz Před 4 lety +5

    Knowing what sort of people exist, I don't think things like these will be able to exist.
    As soon as I saw this robot and what it is supposed to do, my first reaction was - vandalism, theft, etc.
    Until people's behaviour changes, such things won't last long.

      That's a good argument for a special moon base. One where all the people that exhibit anti social, anti technological behavior can go and live in chaos together.

      @ursamajor6347 Před 8 měsíci

      According to the Starship website, the robot has 12 cameras. So the person kicking it into the Thames can be identified and subsequently fined and/or imprisoned for destroying private property@@thelaw3536

    • @Uhmu
      @Uhmu Před 6 lety +12

      I think the point is that the delivery with robots are potentially cheaper, so you can pay extra for the 12th floor delivery or save some money and go down 12 floors.

    • @MrBlaxjax
      @MrBlaxjax Před 6 lety +3

      These robots usually won't deliver direct to your door. I suppose if you want that you would just have to go for the regular humanoid delivery option. I'm guessing that this option will be cheaper, especially for short distances.

    When will this be active I wonder, just about power bank at the vehicle, then autocharge at parking spot, sync with elevator for going up and down?
    The belief of i.r.c is still "not believed of the existence" to use as ordering point that shopkeeper read immediately to place the items ordered - address, name(next order confirmation code?) like banked into the shop to deduct there?

    Good, but it needs the ability to use elevators, and additionally, it seems rather slow, to the extent that it appeared to be blocking people's access along the pavement. Speed it up by 50-75% and deal with the elevator problem and you're onto a winner, otherwise, I'm not too sure...

    This will never come to a city like LA or NY. The rep is a SJW type (believes an alarm or intervention will deter theft). I live in LA and this will never be. Trust. An alarm will not support safety for this robot. You need to attach a shock device or ability to shoot anyone that touches it (crazy but true). I would only support /invest in drone delivery. SJW's need to live in a real world, not the imaginary digital one that most techtards live.
