A recent discovery by a group of teachers and Canada's mcgill university, uncovered that city birds are smarter and healthier then country birds. The birds that live in Urban environments are not better at problem solving and more skilled tasks that require innovation, then there counter parts they also have stronger immune systems. There research the first ever to examine the cognitive of urban dwelling birds with those of their country cousins, was spearheaded by Jean-Nicolas Audet, a Ph.D student at university's department of biology.

What is more exiting than having a hot pizza delivered to you by your door by a robot.

Thanks to DRU (Domino's robotic unit) made that reality.

The fully autonomous is the collaboration between domino's pizza Australia and Sydney-based startup mechanical robotics. The 450 pound machine can go 12.5 miles an hour they can go a distance that is 12 miles there and back before needing to charge.

LIDAR, a laser-based sensor technology similar to the ones used in self-driving cars, enables DRU to detect and avoid obstacles, while traditional sensors, much like those most used in robotic vacuums to make sure that it's path is safe as it to its destination. DRU's weather and waterproof acrylic plastic exterior protects the food from the elements while it's aluminium steel interior ensures the pies remain hot. The DRU is equipped with a GPS and Google maps guidance DRU can navigate bike paths and also find the quickest way to the destination. To access there food customers have a unique code provided by the company this doesn't just ensure that the pick-up the right pizza but also it prevents the pies prom getting stolen.

Through domino's has thus has just one prototype they except additional DRU'S to be ready for there service in different locations.
