Estonia-based Cleveron unveiled its new driverless semi-autonomous last mile delivery vehicle, the Cleveron 701. Being successfully piloted for the last six months, Cleveron 701 is the first ever vehicle in Europe to be granted a license for driverless and semi-autonomous operation in all the public streets across a country.

Cleveron, a company that develops and constructs parcel robots, started something last year in Estonia that has never been done before. In cooperation with the Estonian Entrepreneurship University of Applied Sciences, the company started an applied higher education curriculum called the Cleveron Academy. The academy aims to train software developers with a specific focus on self-driving cars.

Estonia is a world leader in the development and application of digital logistics. Now Estonian Cleveron and Japanese giant Itochu signed a memorandum to boost the cooperation in the last-mile delivery technologies.

Estonian parcel locker and fulfillment robotics provider Cleveron has had a productive decade. Over the last year alone Cleveron has launched a grocery robot, opened a robotics academy, expanded to 21 countries, and has been awarded as the best last mile delivery innovator and this year’s exporter of Estonia.

This fall, Cleveron opens an academy to provide professional higher education for young robotics enthusiasts in cooperation with Estonian Entrepreneurship University of Applied Sciences.

Estonia’s parcel locker and fulfillment robotics provider Cleveron has launched an automated street-front locker system for groceries that supports robotic click-and-collect orders, offering an efficient alternative to home delivery.

Estonian company Cleveron, that makes click-and-collect lockers and parcel robots, has partnered with five new big companies over the course of two months. This is a new milestone of success for the company.

‘It’s like a Japanese hotel,’ was the reaction of the show host on the stage of Robotex 2018 in Tallinn as Cleveron launched its new self-driving robot courier. The autonomous cargo car is the latest invention of the Viljandi-based company that has installed nearly 1000 robotic parcel stations for Walmart in the US and is piloting small parcel terminals for private homes across Estonia.

Estonia’s Cleveron will display the world’s first self-driving parcel delivery car on November 30th at the Robotex International Conference in Tallinn.

Founded by Arno Kütt in 2006 as an online furniture retailer in the central Estonian town of Viljandi, Cleveron soon found a new business focus − developing software and hardware for automated parcel terminals to overcome the inefficient and monopolistic delivery service that was an obstacle for its own business

Cleveron, a Viljandi, Estonia-based company that produces automated package machines, is partnering with one of the world’s largest fashion retailers, Inditex.

Hydrogen-fuelled self-driving buses, autonomous fire brigades and an extensive online network of drones are just some of the solutions that will describe the city-scape of future Estonia, according to Estonia’s Minister of Entrepreneurship and Information Technology, Andres Sutt.
