Delivery drivers in the UK, Germany, and Switzerland are getting a makeover. London-based Starship Technologies is building a fleet of autonomous robots designed to deliver goods locally.
Initial partners—European food delivery company Just Eat, German parcel delivery service Hermes, German retailer Metro Group, and London food delivery start-up Pronto—will test roaming robots in five cities.
"These partners we're working with are at the top of their game—passionate, driven and quick to embrace new technology, making them the perfect choice for us to truly demonstrate our robotic delivery solution," Starship COO Allan Martinson said in a statement.
