California-based start-up Robomart is testing a prototype mobile grocery store in a vehicle using Nvidia's level 5 automated driving platform. The company is seeking a permit from California authorities and, should it get the green light, customers will be able to summon the Robomart using an app, before selecting their items and paying via checkout-free technology. It is planned that supermarkets will able to lease the vehicles for ten year as a cheaper alternative to a bricks and mortar presence.
