Robomart Haven: The Self-Driving Grocery Store

Why should we drive to the supermarket and waste time when the supermarket can come to us? After a test phase, Santa Monica-based start-up Robomart has now unveiled an autonomous delivery vehicle called ‘Haven’ that can transport just over 300 items and up to two tons in weight without a driver. Using an app, the vehicle can be ordered and after opening the sliding doors, the corresponding products can be taken and charged.

The vehicle is modular, so it can be equipped with different types of shelves, as well as refrigerators and freezers. The running time of the electric vehicle is said to be eight hours. Also integrated are an autonomy technology stack and a fleet management system for providers with multiple vehicles.

The vehicle can already be reserved and is scheduled for market launch in 2025.
