Is Coronavirus Speeding the Adoption of Driverless Technology ? 

The recent COVID-19 crisis has reignited an intense discussion about rapidly deploying driverless cars.

Indeed, some think that leveraging driverless platforms for on-demand mobility, like riding with Uber and Lyft, could substantially reduce the risk of virus infection to drivers.

While driver health would likely benefit in the short term from such operations, there are long-term job loss considerations, as well as likely increased risk to passengers due to possible transmission from previous passenger contamination.

Urban spaces are getting constricted by the day, and the situation isn’t going to improve in the near future by the look of things.

Renault says that future urban mobility will be electric, connected, autonomous and shared – and has today revealed its last mile delivery vision at the
Hannover Motor Show in Germany. The EZ-Pro autonomous electric pod concept is all of those things, and sees a manned package carrier at the front of a convoy of driverless, modular pods satisfying the delivery needs of online customers.

02:23 ● 2. Robomart is The Latest Startup to Try and Unseat the Convenience Store
The startup assault on the humble neighborhood store continues to intensify.

First came Bodega, the terribly named, and mostly misguidedstartup with its mission to bring the non-perishable necessities available at the corner store to the masses and “disrupt” the corner store.

Now there’s Robomart, which wants to bring the groceries, baked goods and prepared foods of the supermarket aisle to your doorstep with a white-labeled service for wholesalers and big box retailers.

The culmination of a ten-year vision from founder Ali Ahmed, Robomart is an autonomous grocery store department on wheels.

Robomart is the serial entrepreneur’s latest startup. Ahmed, who first conceived of the rolling grocery store concept while an employe at Unilever ten years ago, went on to found LuteBox, which was around the social sharing of media content.

03:52 ● 3. Neolix
Neolix raises $29 million to mass-produce autonomous delivery shuttles. Neolix, of Beijing, claims the epidemic has boosted sales of its delivery bots.

 Neolix, a maker of urban robo-delivery trucks, made an interesting claim recently. The Beijing-based company said orders for its self-driving delivery vehicles were soaring because the coronavirus epidemic had both cleared the roads of cars and opened the eyes of customers to the advantages of driverlessness. The idea is that when the epidemic is over, the new habits may well persist.

 Neolix last week told Automotive News it had booked 200 orders in the past two months after having sold just 159 in the eight months before. And on 11 March, the company confirmed that it had raised US $29 million in February to fund mass production.

 Of course, this flurry of activity could merely be coincidental to the epidemic, but Tallis Liu, the company’s manager of business development, maintains that it reflects changing attitudes in a time of plague.

05:04 ● 4. Next - Self Driving Car Swarms
Next is an advanced smart transportation system based on teams of modular self-driving vehicles, designed in Italy.

Each module can join and detach with other modules on standard city roads. When joined, they create an open, bus-like area, allowing passengers to stand and walk from one module to another to dynamically optimize occupancy rate and to deliver services on demand in motion. Additionally, their modularity makes it possible to adjust the cargo capacity for delivery service in order to maximize efficiency and convenience for consumers and deliverers alike!

Ford concept uses drones and self-driving vans for deliveries.

The innovative “Autolivery” concept of using electric self-driving vans together with drones to pick up and drop off goods and packages in urban areas can be experienced through virtual reality headsets at Mobile World Congress.
