I’ve seen how some people drive in Irvine. There’s going to be a lot of messed up deliveries coming soon in that area. Funny enough, they’ll have the robots accompanied by humans, at least for a while. Seems like a lot of effort to deliver your packages.
Amazon has previously tested its delivery robots in Washington State, but this marks the first California deployment. The robots, deployed in the Irvine area, will drive during daytime hours. Though designed to operate autonomously, the test robots will be accompanied by humans to ensure nothing goes wrong. So-called “Scout Ambassadors” will also be gauging public reaction to the robots, which is a big X-factor in plans to deploy autonomous mobile robots on city streets.
