Kiwibot seeks to transform the food delivery industry with a service that is now present on campuses in the Americas. Kiwibot offers a fleet of insulated, remote-controlled robots that deliver hot and cold food items. Founded in Colombia, the service uses human-controlled robots to make deliveries using what it describes as "human in the loop" autonomy, which should enable partial autonomy in conjunction with manned remote centers that supervise bots on the streets in case of algorithmic perception mistakes.
