A mobile robot Akbota is used by the main postal service provider in Kazakhstan, the robot was developed and built locally. It is used in mail delivery, and rather successfully ― it can travel across potholes and other obstacles on the road, recognize road signs and navigate safely around people. You may not expect a door-to-door service from this machine, but when it comes to finding the right address it is never mistaken.

Akbota has eight slots for packages of different sizes. The slot with your mail opens once you enter a code sent to your phone.

The robot is made of metal, which protects it and all the mail inside from vandals. It uses 4 engines to travel, powered by a battery. It navigates autonomously using AI.
