Testing of Starship autonomous delivery robots in Silicon Valley

Published on Jul 23, 2016

In July 2016, Starship Technologies conducted tests of its autonomous delivery robots in the heart of Silicon Valley. The robots achieved 90% autonomous driving, successfully navigating the sidewalk, avoiding obstacles, passing pedestrians, checking for traffic and completing a successful delivery for a senior citizen living nearby.

Starship Technologies have built the world's first commercially available autonomous delivery robot. Testing has been running in 40 cities and 12 countries, in the aim to bring affordable, convienant and efficient on-demand delivery to consumers and businesses.
