Google's Burrito Delivery Drones Have Officially Started Testing in Virginia
- kiallmacinnes 10y agoHah, Burritos are probably the perfect test for this. Small, heavy enough, an even weight distribution, and, are time sensitive - nobody wants a cold burrito. It'll be interesting to see where this tech goes in say 10 years. And... I'm now craving a burrito. Damn!
- dismantlethesun 10y agoI'd also point out that Virginia tech's campus is fairly rural flat terrain so the risk of running into anything or getting shot down by miscreants is pretty low.
- zardo 10y agoI'd say VT students are more likely than your average American to build some sort of burrito interceptor.
- eridius 10y agoBurritos are also wrapped in aluminum foil, which helps with heat retention.
- pjc50 10y agoWhat about Pinboard's Alameda-Weehawken Burrito Tunnel, the hyperloop solution to this problem?
