With the partnership, customers ordering through Presto’s tools will have their orders brought out from the restaurant to the curb or to their parking space by one of Ottonomy’s sidewalk robot-style machines, which run without the aid of human operators.
Rather than take an incremental approach from teleoperation to full autonomy, Ottonomy is developing fully autonomous delivery robots.
Ottonomy (www.ottonomy.io) is now enabling contactless food delivery with LA-based mobile ordering app, Crave, focusing on the restaurant and hospitality sectors. Ottonomy has been piloting both indoor/outdoor delivery in markets across the country in multiple industries and sectors including airport and retail.
Restaurant guests can order and pay using Presto’s touch or voice products and receive food delivered via Ottonomy’s vehicles.
Ottonomy deploys a new delivery service within airport terminals with the goal of making air travel traveling more enjoyable.
