Hyundai’s DAL-e supply robotic is supplied with face identification AI developed by Robotics LAB. | Supply: Hyundai Motor Group
South Korea, which already has the world’s highest robotic density, is getting extra service robots. Hyundai Motor Group final week introduced the deployment of the DAL-e Supply robotic from Hyundai Motor Co. and Kia Corp., in addition to Hyundai WIA’s Parking Robotic.
The companions mentioned the robots will ship drinks and supply parking companies, respectively, at Factorial Seongsu, a wise constructing owned by IGIS Asset Administration.

Parking Robotic strikes automobiles, Dal-e delivers drinks
On the constructing, DAL-e Supply will autonomously navigate to supply fast and environment friendly supply companies, mentioned Hyundai Motor. It’s geared up with AI face-identification know-how developed by Robotics LAB that Hyundai claimed is 99.9% correct.
The autonomous Parking Robotic can maneuver into tight areas, rising parking house utilization in contrast with human parking, the corporate mentioned. Hyundai WIA has additionally developed a Sensible Parking Management System that may handle as much as 50 parking robots concurrently.

Hyundai mentioned it’s working towards a proposed “Robotic Whole Answer” growth plan. This plan entails utilizing numerous robots and facial recognition programs in sensible buildings, beginning with Factorial Seongsu.
The firm added that it hopes to develop an built-in management system for managing a number of supply robots inside the Robotic Whole Answer.
Hyundai invests in different robotic ventures
Along with its workplace robotic deployment, Hyundai has been investing in different robotics ventures. In 2020, it acquired Boston Dynamics, which has been growing and commercializing the legged Spot and Atlas robots.
Final month, Aptiv PLC and Hyundai Motor Group accomplished their possession restructuring transitions for Motional AD LLC. Earlier this yr, Aptiv mentioned it will cease funding Motional after incurring thousands and thousands of {dollars} in losses.
Aptiv had forecast a non-cash fairness lack of about $340 million in 2024. Aptiv has bought an 11% frequent fairness curiosity within the autonomous car developer to Hyundai for about $448 million of money consideration.
The mobility software program firm additionally exchanged 21% of its frequent fairness in Motional for a like variety of Motional most popular shares. This information got here simply weeks after Hyundai introduced a $475 million funding spherical for Motional.
