Robot dogs will soon be delivering to your door


This robot can deliver up to 30kg of goods to a customer's door. — Rivr

Swiss robotics start-up Rivr is launching its first dog-like robots through two experimental programs in the UK and the US, working with local parcel delivery platforms. The aim is to optimize last-mile delivery.

These robots are specially designed to navigate a variety of urban environments. For example, they are able to go up and down stairs, as well as over uneven terrain. Unlike other solutions which tend to operate on the sidewalk, these robots can theoretically deliver packages right to the customer's door, working in tandem with a human agent.
