Indoor-Outdoor Delivery Bots

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Ottobot is a Fully Autonomous Delivery Robot for Indoor & Outdoor Use

— January 5, 2022 — Tech
Ottobot by Ottonomy introduces a fleet of fully autonomous delivery robots for restaurant and retail industries for both indoor and outdoor environments. With proprietary technology, contextual mapping and cutting-edge navigation, Ottobot is being exhibited at CES 2022. At a time when many businesses are looking for new ways to support contactless indoor deliveries, curbside deliveries and last-mile deliveries, Ottobot is an asset.

After successful pilots during 2020, more research followed the robot deliveries to further enhance the experience. Ottobot creates a digital map of an area and gets updates as it is delivering orders, which is useful in crowded and challenging environments.

Ottonomy recently made announcements in partnership with CVG Airport and Presto launching the innovative autonomous delivery robots in North America.
