Wheeled-Legged Robots Tackling Last-Mile Delivery Challenges

The future of package delivery has four legs and a mission. RIVR’s impressive wheeled-legged robots are making their U.S. debut in Austin through a partnership with Veho, taking on the notorious “last-100-yard” challenge that has long plagued delivery services. These nimble mechanical couriers can navigate stairs, gates, and uneven terrain to bring parcels directly to doorsteps, working alongside human drivers rather than replacing them. The deployment represents a significant step toward RIVR’s ambitious goal of putting one million robots into the field, demonstrating how physical AI can make urban logistics smarter, faster, and more reliable without losing the human touch that customers value.
