Future of Robots in Logistics: Unmanned Guided Vehicles and Drones are Transforming the Logistics Market

MOUNTAIN VIEW, California, July 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

The logistic industry is witnessing a massive transformation and is becoming competitive with new players eroding the supply chain. To remain successful, firms need to move towards innovation with a core emphasis on efficiency and reliability in a time constrained environment. With end consumers becoming more demanding with their delivery preferences, the speed of delivery is a critical factor that differentiates one organization from another.

Rapid urbanization and increased volumes in e-commerce will create a need for new transformative business models such as last mile deliveries, on-demand logistic services, real-time delivery tracking through applications and unbundled delivery of services.  With high demands, modern delivery methods expect to cause the future of logistics to be overwhelmed by autonomous machines. These machines could make critical time constrained and emergent deliveries effortless.
