Digit Robot Will Deliver Packages from Self-Driving Vehicles

In the future, many things we do today will be automated. Plenty of companies are already working on self-driving vehicles and robots to deliver things faster. Ford is teaming up with Agility Robotics to explore how robots can deliver packages to customers efficiently. The idea here is to use the Digit robot to bring the packages from self-driving vehicles to customers directly.

The robot can walk up stairs and navigate around obstacles. Digit is a two-legged robot that walks like a human. It is capable of lifting packages that weigh up to 40 pounds.
