Autonomous Deliveries Could Be More Attractive to Consumers
Delivery giants such as UberEats, GrubHub, and DoorDash are guilty of charging a bit more in terms of fees, compared to what Robomart are promising customers. Undoubtedly, then, a single fee coupled with no driver tips or hidden costs, will certainly be of interest to customers.
Based on the information Ahmed has given, Robomart’s deliveries could be fast, too. The RM5 is designed to travel up to 25 miles per hour, and can do so on public roads, unlike other similar systems that use bike lanes or sidewalks and are much slower.
Ahmed believes these qualities make the product quite unique in the delivery space, “an autonomous marketplace for on-demand delivery using self-driving robots.”
Therefore, it’s not just self-driving cars that could become a highly attractive option for a lot of consumers and retailers. The delivery space could be just as lucrative, and with how fast the technology seems to be advancing, it may not even be long before it’s commonplace to get your McDonald’s via robot.
