Abstract
In this paper, we discuss our solution towards social issues such as theft, sexual assault, and work-related stress in the context of delivery in densely populated urban areas, especially with the rising concerns for covid-19 (Muschert & Budd, 2020). In doing so, we will address our robot, TUTUS' design, social relevance, and practicality, and how it can be implemented in real situations. We aim to achieve this by having our robot capable of efficiently navigating through apartment complexes, carrying parcels of varying sizes and shapes while keeping cost low and practicality high.
