Food delivery robot forces its way across a police crime scene

It did have to pass three of them.

Looks (maybe) like a Serve Robotics unit, which is partially remotely piloted, yet the cameras are rolling when they go through an intersection, so...?

There are other delivery companies as well with remote piloted robots.

I build these robots (called UGV) along UAV and ROV for living. And no, all of these food delivery robots are tele-operated remotely via cellular networks (not autonomous). The software usually are ROS-based and there are ready drivers for that type of work, along other sensors like stereo cams and visual cams, some even put 2D/3D Lidar, but the actual controls are happening by a real time operator with an Xbox/PS controller. Hardware wise, mostly uses SBC (nvidia jetson based mostly) and very few a small form factor NUC, although due to power consumption SBCs are the case, rest are the usual like relays etc. A coupe months ago, city of Toronto banned all these food delivery robots operating on pavements and cycle lanes in concerns of public safety and people with disabilities.[1] [1] https://cities-today.com/toronto-city-council-votes-to-ban-p...
