Serve Robotics Inc. is teaming up with DriveU.auto to deploy the corporate’s connectivity platform into Serve’s commercially deployed robotic fleet. The platform will improve its skill to watch its autonomous supply robots remotely, stated Serve Robotics.
DriveU.auto’s platform will add to the suite of instruments that the supply robotic firm is utilizing because it deploys as much as 2,000 methods on the Uber Eats platform.
“As a way to quickly scale to 1000’s of robots, Serve must leverage the capabilities of world-class know-how companions like DriveU.auto,” acknowledged Dmitry Demeshchuk, co-founder and vice chairman of software program engineering at Serve. “DriveU’s connectivity platform will assist us enhance the resilience and efficiency of our fleet, unlock operational efficiencies, and understand economies of scale as we pursue mass-market autonomous supply.”
DriveU.auto has developed and deployed a software-based connectivity platform for the teleoperation of robots and autonomous automobiles. The Tel Aviv, Israel-based firm claimed that its system permits distant driving (direct drive) or high-level instructions (distant help) at very low latency and excessive reliability.
DriveU.auto’s system is predicated on its proprietary mobile bonding and dynamic video encoding applied sciences. It stated its clients and companions embrace autonomous car builders, together with automobiles, vehicles, and shuttles, makers of supply robots, OEMs, and Tier 1 automotive suppliers.

Why Serve picked the DriveU.auto platform
Serve stated it evaluated DriveU.auto alongside different aggressive choices. It landed on DriveU.auto’s platform due to its dependable, low latent, and uninterrupted connectivity. The corporate says this enables robots to share real-time telematics, entry cloud computing, and allow distant supervision in edge instances.
“We’re grateful for the chance to interact as a trusted companion with Serve Robotics,” Alon Podhurst, CEO of DriveU.auto, stated. “DriveU.auto is dedicated to enabling the large-scale rollout of driverless fleets safely and effectively. Connectivity is a important ingredient in each driverless car. Our increasing roster of economic partnerships is a testomony to DriveU’s main place in enabling AV operations.
DriveU.auto additionally gives native assist of the NVIDIA Jetson platform, which gives hardware-accelerated video encoding and decoding, reduces community bandwidth and latency, and leads to higher video high quality. This was an added worth for Serve.
In April of this yr, Redwood Metropolis, Calif-based Serve Robotics went public on the Nasdaq Inventory Market beneath the image “SERV.” The firm stated it anticipated its preliminary public providing of 10 million shares of widespread inventory to generate $40 million in gross proceeds, earlier than underwriting reductions and providing bills.
Serve Robotics builds and maintains its fleet of robots for patrons as a robotics-as-a-service (RaaS) enterprise. In 2021, Serve spun out of Uber, and it has maintained an working contract with Uber Eats for native supply in choose places. Different large clients have included Walmart and 7-Eleven.
