Autonomous robots are helping to define the supply chain of the future by lowering long-term costs, rise in worker efficiency, low error rates, reducing inventory check, improving picking and sorting many times, and gaining access to difficult locations. As consumers demand more convenient fulfillment and technology advances, the likelihood of autonomous delivery robot distribution is growing. 

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted global supply chains in a variety of industries, including healthcare, industrial production, construction, and retail, in recent months. It has forced everybody to step outside of their comfort zone and adapt to modern working methods. People can now work from home using the internet and video conferencing thanks to advancements in telecommunications technology. They are adjusting to the new routine of working from home for extended periods, despite the threat of catching the virus. To avoid touch, people avoid going to crowded places. Also avoiding crowded areas to prevent communication, instead opting for delivery services. Autonomous delivery vehicles now have a new chance to show off the advantages of contactless delivery.

The introduction of the autonomous delivery robot (ADR) is expected to revolutionize last-mile delivery systems by providing a more cost-effective and efficient method of delivery. Even though delivery robots have not been widely adopted, they are expected to expand rapidly in the future due to a variety of benefits.

Here are few things to know about autonomous delivery robots :  

Improve routine operations' speed and accuracy, particularly in warehousing and manufacturing.

Increase production by working side by side with humans.

Reduce the likelihood of employee injuries in hazardous situations.

The delivery robots also have an alarm system that sends information about any attempts to communicate with them while in transit. The alarm facilitates monitoring, and the appropriate measures can be taken to ensure that the item arrives at its intended location.

On its way to the distribution destination, the technology uses a programmed map, GPS, and pedestrian sidewalk to avoid obstacles.

The robot also has speakers and a microphone, allowing it to interact easily with human workers or pedestrians, enhancing its performance.
