  • this'd is forced to leg delivery robot.

  • It's called Digit.

  • Ford is working with agility robotics to create autonomous deliveries.

  • Once a self driving car arrives at its destination, digital unfold itself from the back of the car.

  • Then it'll grab the correct package from the vehicle and walk straight to your door to drop off the package.

  • Digit was designed to look like a human and walk like one to our goal.

  • With Digit is to have a robot as a mobility platform that can be inhuman.

  • Spaces go where people go and work with people, and there are so many applications where that's gonna be a useful and important task.

  • One of the big ones is package delivery.

  • A robot vehicle that can drive on all of our roads is gonna be able to do that.

  • But then how do you get it from the vehicle to the doorstep?

  • And that's where our robot comes in.

  • That's what digit can do.

  • It can carry packages that weigh up to £40 go up and down stairs, walk naturally through uneven terrain and can even keep its balance.

  • If it bumps into something.

  • How is it able to do all that light.

  • Our sensors and a few stereo cameras, which is what many self driving cars also use The autonomous vehicle can wirelessly deliver information.

  • Two digit.

  • This exchange of information can help digit use the best pathway to the front door and overcome unexpected obstacles.

  • We do envision the A V to arrive at the site with all the information you need to know about starting a mission.

  • We'd have the prior maps, and the baby would be able to aid the robot when it got out of the vehicle and knowing where it waas and where it needs to go.

  • And additionally, the baby is full of sensors and computers that can help the robot, which is, Ah, little bit thriftier on those components.

  • And should it run into any difficulties in package delivery, we can either solve the problem on the car or we could relay that information up to the cloud for further assistance.

  • This also keeps digits super lightweight, and they allow for a long run time.

  • Ford claims digit can operate most of the day.

  • No word yet on when Ford expects to send digit out on its own or where it will first launch.

  • So would you answer the door if this rang on your doorbell?
