How Pokémon Go is giving delivery robots an inch-perfect view of the world
The world of delivery robots, in an unusual turn of events, is borrowing a trick or two from Pokémon Go, the world's first augmented-reality megahit. Released by Google spinout Niantic in 2016, Pokémon Go drastically changed the world of gaming by bringing the magical world of Pokémon right into the players' living rooms, workplaces, and cities.
In the game, players' real-life environment is overlaid with an electrifying AR, populated with creatures whose existence exists solely in the digital realm. The lines between gaming and reality became dispensable as players hunted down Pokémon.
A key device in Pokémon Go is the camera, which relies on AI technology to manifest the overlay on real-world objects and the visual perspective provided by the smartphone's camera. The AI technology is so advanced that it offers an inch-perfect view of the world, thus giving delivery robots their cue.
The movement boffins at delivery robot companies have come to take note of the distinctive use of this technology by the gaming industry. They are now integrating AR technology in their gizmos to help them create inch-perfect maps of their delivery routes and mobile dashboards for interaction with human customers.
The advanced tech is not just about successful deliveries alone. The delivery robots now can learn from the AI algorithms to alter their navigation strategies to suit the traffic and obstacles they encounter on the route. In addition, the use of AI makes the robots capable of evading densely populated areas, making the final leg of delivery safer and more comfortable, preserving the desirable odor of having Pokémon Go to thank for making their presence felt amidst city dwellers.
In conclusion, the application of AR technology in Pokémon Go serves
