Smart Robots Are Being Developed, At Uber’s Request, To Be Part Of Delivery Fleet That Does Not Rely On Humans

After being forced to sell its fleet of self-driving cars in 2020, Uber wants to invest in a somewhat controversial proposal. The project is to have its own “convoy” of smart robots to make deliveries.

Uber’s smart robot prototype was developed by Cartken, and each unit can carry up to eleven kilograms, as well as having integrated camera sensors and six wheels. The company aims to no longer need drivers to carry out Uber Eats deliveries, the smart robots will take care of everything.

The testing phase will be conducted in Dadeland, a district of Miami, Florida. If expectations are met, the idea will be taken to other cities throughout 2023.

Here in Brazil, this would be a big novelty, but the Uber Eats service has been discontinued in Brazil. However, the company is not the first to believe in the implementation of technology to give a “boost” to deliveries. Retailers Walmart and Amazon also intend to follow this path.

Amazon has already gone through a testing phase with the Scout robot, however the project, which was only experimental, was paused for an update and improvement. This is already a clear sign that major networks are looking for options to rely less on human labor.

While in Brazil a 10-story building takes 2 years to complete, in China a company stacks pre-fabricated modules and raises the entire building in just 28 hours and 45 minutes.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

A producer from Santa Catarina started with a poultry farm of just 7,500 birds in 1994 and three decades later manages 21 farms thanks to a simple strategy he learned early on.

More than €600,000 in gold hidden in pots and an “invisible” safe inside an old house turns a small French town into the stage for a discovery that reveals how entire fortunes can remain buried for decades without anyone noticing.

Japan enters the war with the Terra A1 drone priced at $2,000 and turns the math against Putin by taking down swarms of Iranian drones for a fraction of the cost.

Scientists made electrons flow like a frictionless liquid within graphene — the result violated a law of physics that had been in place for over a century by 200 times…

With 635 km, 441 stations, and driverless lines, the Shenzhen metro grows by 30 km per year and becomes a futuristic showcase that costs less than in the West.

Scientists have created a microscopic nanorobot that functions as an invisible cleaner, chasing bacteria with light, transporting microorganisms, and releasing each target at the exact point, in an advancement that could change diagnostics and treatments.
