Coco Robotics launched its Coco 2 autonomous delivery platform in Los Angeles on February 28, 2026 [1]. The UCLA-born startup designed the new system to transition from human-guided sidewalk operation to full citywide autonomy [1][2]. These robots utilize NVIDIA AI hardware to navigate complex urban environments [1][3]. The Coco 2 platform focuses on moving through bike lanes and roadways rather than strictly relying on sidewalks [1]. This shift aims to reduce urban congestion and lower carbon emissions across the city [1][2]. By operating in designated lanes, the startup seeks to improve delivery speed and safety for local businesses [2][3].
