about it ! Driving a two-tonne car is an incredibly inefficient method just to pick up a bag of groceries . On the contrary , incurring a small fee to have your items delivered by a small environmentally-friendly robot in as little as 15 minutes is a small price to pay so that our planet can be sustained for future generations . People should feel comfortable in the knowledge that their items will get from A to B in one piece , too . For example , Starship Technologies ’ robots use machine learning , sensor fusion and computer vision to navigate their way around sidewalks all over the world . They are fitted with radars , cameras and ultrasonic sensors to ensure that items are kept safe until they are unlocked by the customer , which is managed through an app interface .
Over the next few years , we ’ ll see just how effective
delivery robots have been in the fight against climate change . Countries across the globe are eager to meet ambitious targets when it comes to curbing CO2 emissions , and going into the 2020s we can expect more and more industries take the initiative and adopt autonomous delivery to help in this effort .
As the world of delivery continues to become more innovative and flexible , it will save thousands and even millions of CO2 tonnes in the years to come . The 2020s will be an exciting decade as we see more and more consumers utilise environmentally-friendly solutions like autonomous robots — the future could not be greener !
