Report Description:
The Postal Service has a long history of piloting early forms of robots in sorting centers but has yet to really test the latest generation of robots for sorting and delivery. Although it will be many years before the technology is mature enough to be fully scalable, USPS would benefit from testing autonomous mobile robots for potentially assisting carriers, offering on demand delivery, and speeding up mail transport in sorting centers.
