Potholes and pedestrians taxed legacy compute. A 5x boost in video processing power now enables 12-hour autonomous delivery shifts.
A robotics spinoff from Uber operates one of the largest autonomous sidewalk delivery fleets, serving over 2,500 restaurants across five major U.S. cities.
Robots must navigate unpredictable sidewalk hazards like potholes and pedestrians, a far harder task than moving through controlled warehouses....
“Serve is on track to deploy 2,000 robots and become one of the largest fleets of autonomous robots in public spaces by the end of 2025. Our rapid progress and technology leadership would not be possible without our partnership with NVIDIA.”
Autonomous sidewalk delivery robots for last-mile logistics.
NVIDIA is a technology company that specializes in semiconductors, graphics processing units, and artificial intelligence for applications in data centers, gaming, and more.
