Serve Robotics , a developer of sidewalk delivery robots, is partnering with Uber Technologies, which is said to be the world's largest food delivery and ridesharing platform.
The on-demand robotic delivery service will be available to Uber Eats customers starting in Los Angeles early next year.
Serve Robotics says it is“shaping the future of sustainable, self-driving delivery”. Founded in 2017 as the robotics division of Postmates, Serve is now an independent company on a mission to make delivery more affordable, sustainable and accessible for everyone.
Guided by its proprietary autonomous technology, the company's self-driving robots have successfully completed tens of thousands of contactless deliveries in major US cities.
Serve is backed by Uber, alongside other leading investors.
