Hear from Postmates, Refraction AI and FedEx about autonomous delivery at TC Sessions: Mobility 2020
TechCrunch has tapped three experts from FedEx, Refraction AI and Postmates to join our virtual stage at TC Sessions: Mobility 2020 to talk about the challenges and opportunities of using robots for delivery. TC Sessions: Mobility is a two-day conference scheduled for October 6 and October 7 that aims to bring together the best and brightest minds working on the future of transportation.
Matthew Johnson-Roberson, co-founder of Refraction AI
Johnson-Roberson's company, Refraction AI, came out of stealth on our stage last year. He has worked in robotic perception since the first DARPA grand challenge, and is associate professor of robotics at the University of Michigan College of Engineering. Rebecca Yeung, VP of Advanced Technology & Innovation at FedEx Yeung's primary responsibility as VP of advanced technology is to accelerate innovation in the autonomous vehicles and robotics space and use it to improve FedEx's operations and customer experience. She is the lead officer for FedEx's same-day robot known as Roxo. She also oversees key autonomous vehicle and robotics initiatives at the enterprise level, evaluating emerging technologies to inform R&D investments. Ali Kashani, VP of Special Projects at Postmates
Kashani has co-founded several startups, including Lox, which was acquired by Postmates in 2017. When Kashani joined the company he launched Postmates X, which aimed to solve the economic and environmental dilemma of using vehicles to deliver food. His team came up with Serve, the robot that is now used to deliver food in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
