Large-scale apartment buildings present unique challenges, particularly in the last-mile problem, such as moving between floors using elevators and passing through security gates. James W can unlock security on its own, work in conjunction with the elevator, deliver packages to each home's front door, and even ring the doorbell to call residents. The test is scheduled to continue until late September. (August 2025)
