Topic Reading-Vol.3295-4/19/2021

Dear MEL Topic Readers,  

Domino's is launching a pizza delivery robot car 

If you live in Woodland Heights in Huston, Texas, and order a Domino’s pizza, you can choose a robot car delivery at the front of your house. You can also check where your pizza is once it is dispatched. Though it is still a pilot program, fully autonomous delivery vehicles are on the road to bring pizza there. Though you’ll have to go outside, input the code that was sent to your smartphone, and pick up the pizza, you can opt to avoid human contact for whatever reason. Sounds convenient, doesn’t it? But what about the security of the autonomous vehicle? If someone who is very hungry tries to break into the vehicle to fetch the pizza, what protective mechanism can it deploy? By the way, if you live in a high-rise apartment building, you’ll have to take an elevator to retrieve the pizza at the door front. A bit inconvenient. In the near future, a customer may be asked to choose a delivery option from a robot car, drone, or human. Will you tip the vehicle or drone?

Enjoy watching the video to learn how a pizza delivery robot car works.
