A university is to become a testing ground for delivery robots so that the technology can encounter “real-world scenarios”.
Cranfield University in Bedfordshire said the trial would be a “UK first for on-campus, last-mile robotic deliveries”.
The university is working with the delivery-service platform Peyk.
The test, which is due to start in the spring, will also let students studying robotics gain industry experience.
The aim is for the PeykBot delivery robots to move goods around the site, including library books, mail and food.
