Robots To Deliver Pizza

For months now, the robotics company Nuro has been using electric, self-driving vehicles to deliver groceries to Kroger customers in Phoenix and Houston.

Why an increasing number of companies-automakers, tech giants, startups, parcel services-are seeing autonomous delivery as the more lucrative venture.

The robots of the future will be coming soon, rolling along at a lumbering pace with those goods you just ordered. The six-wheeled, knee-high robots from startup Starship Technologies are part of a new wave of automated systems taking aim at the "last mile" delivery of goods to consumers.

Domino's latest "deliveryman" stands 3 feet tall and doesn't need to be tipped. It has ferried pizzas in Brisbane at a top speed of 12 mph, and the company's Australian master franchise said it's excited for what could come next.
