Coco Robotics has unveiled the Coco 2, the latest version of its autonomous delivery robot. The Coco 2 is designed to operate fully autonomously, using data from millions of miles driven and NVIDIA's technology stack to navigate busy city streets, bike lanes, and roads without the need for human intervention. The company says this new model can cut delivery times in half compared to previous versions.

Why it matters

The Coco 2 represents a significant advancement in autonomous delivery technology, allowing robots to operate independently in complex urban environments. This could enable faster, more efficient deliveries for businesses while reducing the need for human drivers. As autonomous systems become more capable, it raises questions about the future of the delivery industry and the impact on jobs.

The details

The Coco 2 robot is designed to handle unpredictable city conditions, learning from millions of miles of real-world driving data in places like Los Angeles and Chicago. The robot can now use bike lanes and roads where permitted, which the company says can cut delivery times by half. It also features enhanced on-board processing power, allowing it to make decisions in real-time without relying on cloud connectivity.
