Andrey Krenkov:未来自动驾驶汽车可能更像披萨机器人,小型化且用于最后一公里配送,例如Refraction AI的REV1机器人,已经在奥斯汀和密歇根州安阿伯市的社区进行试点,为Southside Flying Pizza送披萨。这些机器人体积小巧,可以在人行道或自行车道行驶,如果自主驾驶失败,也可以人工接管。这是一种比完全自动驾驶汽车更可能首先实现的应用。 Sharon Zhou:Refraction AI的REV1机器人重量为150磅,高4.5英尺,体积小巧,适合在人行道或自行车道行驶,进行最后一公里配送。这与之前Zoom pizza公司尝试在送货途中制作披萨的机器人有所不同,REV1机器人直接接收已制作好的披萨进行配送。这是一家拥有50名员工,融资800万美元的公司,其机器人的应用前景广阔。
