the First people who will lose their employment because of robots, apparently, will be the Swedish scavengers. Carmaker Volvo in collaboration with several universities in Sweden and the USA engaged in the development of robotic assistants for trucks carrying garbage. Remote mechanism will do all the dirty and heavy work, while living the driver can watch the road and choose a route.

it is Expected that the first test pattern of the robot will be ready by June next year. Exactly at the time scheduled for his first day in Sweden. Volvo will try to make your scavenger more quiet and graceful, so that the garbage trucks no longer woke in the morning Swedish family. And of course, the use of robots will reduce costs by reducing staff scavengers.

Volvo will do a mass Assembly of the robot, while its design and management system Swedish scientists do, and for the remote control of responsible engineers in the United States. Assessing the current level of development of unmanned vehicles, it can be assumed that Swedish drivers of garbage trucks would not stay long at the wheel.
