Pizza delivery brings autonomous vehicles to the masses.
The robots are coming, and they're bringing pizza. Domino's launches a real-world test in the Woodland Heights neighborhood in Houston, Texas, for Nuro R2 robots to deliver food. The autonomous bots will travel on public roads and will have to negotiate traffic on the way to their destination.
To take part, customers have to place a prepaid order on Domino's website from the restaurant's Woodland Heights location and opt for the Nuro R2 to perform the delivery. The company sends a text message with a PIN and the ability to track the robot's location. When the bot reaches the destination, the buyer enters the number to unlock the door and grab the pizza.
