Uber Eats starts offering autonomous food deliveries in Fairfax, Virginia

Starting today, Uber Eats customers in Fairfax, Virginia can get their next meal delivered by a robot. In an expansion of the company's existing partnership with Cartken, Uber has begun offering automated deliveries in the city's Mosaic District. With today's announcement, a select number of the more than 40 restaurants in the area have begun transporting their food aboard Cartken's six-wheeled robots. Among the restaurants participating in the pilot include Our Mom Eugenia, Pupatella and RASA. Uber has been testing autonomous delivery robots in a handful of markets throughout the US.
