Domino’s Robotic Unit Delivers Pizza in Australia
By Lauren Stacy • June 9, 2016The engineers at Domino’s DLAB in Australia revealed DRU earlier this year, the Domino’s Robotic Unit. The pizza company partnered with Australian firm Marathon Targets to transfer military technology to a logistics application. Engineers from Domino’s and Marathon worked together to apply lessons learned from creating robotic targets to the pizza delivery business. The four wheel drive chassis finds its way using a battery of sensors and gps. It’s much more likely that we’ll see the DXP, a delivery vehicle based off of a Chevy Spark, bringing us pizzas before DRU hits the streets in North America, though.
