THEO is a semi-autonomous, emission-free, bot-as-a-service trike optimized for bike lanes, maximizing functionality and safety. When bike lanes are unavailable, they are also swift, lightweight, and agile enough to run in conventional car lanes and travel around in a city without causing congestion.
THEO will seamlessly integrate with the backend of on-demand delivery providers, such as food, quick commerce, e-commerce with same-day delivery, and last-mile logistic companies. The service will take care of the entire ground operations and the teleoperations stack. THEO provides a one-stop, full-service delivery solution for customers, so they can focus on what they are best at and do not have to worry about the delivery logistics for their products.
The trike-sized robots are electrically powered and have up to 8 size-adjustable compartments. They can carry a 100 kg payload, go up to 20 km/h, and have a range of 135 km. The first prototype is making deliveries on several campuses in Berlin and nearby cities.
