Automated pizza delivery

A Discovery Channel project. I would do it a little differently.

Rather than a small two wheel robot, send out the automated cargo van which drops off 15 to 20 shopping boxes per trip. Homeowners who sign up have a green box on which the cargo van uses a its arm to drop of the package. UPS without the driver.

While we are at it, has anyone figured out how to tether a couple of electric hybrids?

Wait, Reflexx Robotics has a prototype that is beginning to look right. And don't forget the Robot Mowers.

And the IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium was held in China. A survey of the research reports covers the necessary technology.
