Amazon to Deploy 1,000 Rivian Electric Vans with VAPR AI Tech by Early 2025
Oct 9, 2024, 02:18 PM
Amazon plans to deploy 1,000 electric delivery vans from Rivian equipped with Vision-Assisted Package Retrieval (VAPR) technology by early 2025. The new AI-powered system uses lights within the trucks—specifically green lights—to guide drivers efficiently to the correct packages, potentially shortening delivery routes by about 30 minutes. As Amazon describes, drivers "simply have to look for VAPR's green light; grab, and go," reducing time spent searching and organizing packages. This initiative is part of Amazon's efforts to enhance its quick delivery apparatus by leveraging generative AI to drive more same-day shipping using smarter robots and better routes.
