Police Disperse UCLA Pro-Palestine Camp Amid Congressional Hearing

Police thwarted an attempt by anti-Israel protesters at UCLA to smuggle food into their encampment using a robot courier. The protesters had set up barricades and a new encampment, prompting a significant police presence. Despite efforts to deliver supplies, including food and water, police and campus security have blocked all entrances. The situation has escalated, with more protesters arriving and clashes occurring. UCLA Chancellor Gene Block testified before Congress regarding the protests, and the university received a low grade from the Anti-Defamation League for its handling of antisemitism.

Wendy's experiments with underground robot delivery for mobile orders.

Wendy's is partnering with Pipedream, a hyperlogistics company, to test an underground robot delivery system that will bring digital orders to designated parking spots in seconds. The fully electric underground system will connect the Wendy's kitchen to an instant pickup portal outside of the restaurant, where autonomous robots will carry the orders through an underground delivery system to car-side pickup portals. The system is expected to streamline digital order pick-up points and improve speed of service and accuracy for mobile orders.
