Challenges
- Concern Related to High Investments- Road automatic delivery robots (RADRs) significantly costs low in a variety of situations, but they always come at a cost of much more vehicle miles driven per client served. The cost provided by the Out water and Kitchen, excluding labor expenses, is used to calculate the USD 30/hrs running cost of a RADAR. The cost is ten increased by 15% to account for the more expensive autonomous vehicle technology
- Low Awareness About Robots in Developing Countries
- Absence of High Technology
