FOODOT
Foodot is an autonomous vehicle for the delivery of food in urban environments.
The brief of this project consisted in redesigning a robot that could perform a particular function in a city environment. The idea of delivering food as a function for Foodot to fulfil, started with the analysis of the delivery trend and e-commerce demand that have been increasing last year. In fact, over the years, people are using apps to order take away food more and more
Design That Suits The Way You Live.
Foodot guarantees a better food quality upon delivery, time optimization of deliveries starting from the time of customs’ orders, QR code safety to open the internal sealed compartments. Moreover, a keypoint of the project focuses on the attention for cleaning the internal compartments with UV light sterilizer.
Satisfyng Final Customers’ Need
Foodot guarantees a better quality of the food delivered to customers’ home due to the stability of its structure, its shock absorbers but especially the grip layer that covers the internal compartments and the block of the beverages to prevent them from tipping over.
To Survive in the City
The compartments have independent openings to allow Foodot to avail different clients during only one trip that could last 45 min max, considering a battery life of 6 hours.
As extra delivery specifications, the maximum delivery distance calculated was about 3 km with the possibility to satisfy three consecutive food orders.
The Users
The final users are the delivery company that is in charge of the entire service and that responds to problems that may occur to Foodot; the restaurant partner that gets the orders and provides the food and beverages to the clients; the final customer who receives the orders at home.
Mobile App
Foodot finds best way possible to deliver food to customers’ homes thanks to GPS and the Mobile Application.
The waiter opens the compartments with restaurant’s
personal QR code and Foodot sends the clients a message when it comes to destination.
