Robots are about to descend on US college campuses

“Each robot is electric, has a trunk that can fit about 20 pounds of cargo, and has a suite of cameras around the outside that can be used to identify obstacles and help guide the robot to its destination.”

This article connected to something that I have already understood.  Attending my freshmen year at the University of Mississippi I was not only introduced to the campus by wonderful southern hospitality but also these weird-looking white boxes flying around campus with an orange plag up top.  At first, I didn’t pay any mind to it until I heard people talking about the Starship delivery robots. I was actually surprised at what these robots could do.  Skeptical tested them out a couple of different times.  My first attempt it was taking very long for my food to arrives so I decided to take a walk to find my missing robot and came across it stuck behind a pole.  As sophisticated these robots are they still seem to have a few design flaws that can be worked out.  All in all I have used the delivery system more than once and think that it works great. I could connect the reading to the personal experiences I had with them.
