Techniques for item delivery and delivery systems including autonomous delivery vehicles used to identify optimal delivery locations and/or deliver physical items to pedestrians is discussed herein. In some examples, a fleet management system may receive sensor data captured from sensor devices of vehicles of a fleet of vehicles while traversing within an environment. The fleet management system may use the sensor data to identify region(s) of the environment within which a threshold number of pedestrians may be located. Based on identifying a region having a threshold number of pedestrians, the fleet management system may determine how many vehicles of the fleet of vehicles are available to render delivery services to the pedestrians within the region. In some examples, the fleet management system may identify an available vehicle of the fleet of vehicles to which instructions may be sent. Such instructions may include transporting items to pedestrians within the region.

Fleet management for providing goods to pedestrians

Techniques for item delivery including autonomous delivery vehicles used to identify optimal delivery locations and/or deliver physical items to pedestrians are discussed herein. In some examples, a vehicle may receive the instructions from a fleet management system. The vehicle may determine that the instructions cause the vehicle to deliver a quantity of goods to a specified region within the environment. Based on the instructions, the vehicle may transition to a delivery vehicle and navigate to the region. Upon arriving to the region, the vehicle may receive sensor data captured from sensor devices of the vehicle. Such sensor data may be used to detect a plurality of pedestrians within the region. Based on identifying the plurality of pedestrians within the region, the vehicle may determine a dispensing strategy. In some examples, the vehicle may deliver the goods to the plurality of pedestrians within the region according to the dispensing strategy.

Dynamic vehicle routing for providing goods to pedestrians

An egg cracker and yolk separator preferably include an egg dish and a dish lid. The egg dish preferably includes a dish member, a handle member and a separator wall. The dish member preferably includes a dish base and a dish peripheral wall. The dish peripheral wall extends upward from the dish base. The dish peripheral wall includes a pouring portion wall, opposing side walls and a rear wall. The handle member extends from the rear wall. The separator wall is located in substantially a middle of the egg dish. An egg white opening is formed between a top of the dish base and a bottom of the separator wall. The dish lid preferably includes a lid base, a lid peripheral wall and a lift tab. The lid peripheral wall extends downward from a bottom of the lid base. A second embodiment includes a removable separator wall.
