Takeaway food ordering service Just Eat has announced it will trial delivery robots in London this year. Each robot has onboard cameras to monitor its surroundings, and human operators in a command centre can take over control of the device if necessary. The compartment containing the food will be secured by an access code.
The company said the robots had already been introduced in cities overseas and had driven 5,000 miles without any accidents."We have driven thousands of miles with robots like this... and the vast majority of people just ignore it."
