[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 4328540, member: 1"] [URL='https://knowtechie.com/ford-wants-to-replace-your-ups-driver-with-a-robot/'][B]Ford wants to replace your UPS driver with a robot - Know Techie[/B][/URL] Ahh, CES 2020 wouldn’t be complete without some crazy robot stories. Ford wants to use humanoid robots to deliver packages, paired with fully autonomous delivery vehicles so no humans are in the last mile of delivery. Oh, and the robots (which come from Agility Robotics) don’t have a head… Creepy. Ford is one of the first customers of Digit, the bipedal robot from Agility Robotics. The automaker has purchased two so far, which have been customized to Ford’s needs over a period of several months. The robot recharges while folded into the delivery vehicle, and it also works out the best way to the customer’s door by using the mapping data created by the autonomous car. Nifty. [/QUOTE]
