Domino’s has teamed up with Nuro, the self-driving delivery company, allowing its clients to have their pizza delivered by Nuro’s R2 robot.
Nuro’s R2 is a completely autonomous, occupantless on-road delivery vehicle with regulatory approval by the US Department of Transportation.
Starting this week, customers who place a prepaid order on the website on certain days and times from Domino’s in Woodland Heights, located at 3209 Houston Ave., can opt to have their order delivered by R2.

Here’s how it works
After placing a prepaid website order from the participating Domino’s store, customers will receive text alerts, which will update them on R2’s location and provide them with a unique PIN to retrieve their order.
Customers may also track the vehicle via GPS on their order confirmation page. Once R2 arrives, customers will be prompted to enter their PIN on the bot’s touchscreen. R2’s doors will then gently open upward, revealing the customer’s hot Domino’s order.
