Domino's unveils pizza delivery 'bot

This latest news just might be the end of the pizza delivery boy. Domino's Pizza, together with Australian startup Marathon Robotics, has unveiled the DRU (Domino's Robotic Unit), the world's first autonomous pizza delivery vehicle. The four-wheeled robot sourced from the military and its own technology includes GPS tracking data. It has a sensory system that uses lasers to move around obstacles in its path. It travels with speeds of up to 20km/h and can cruise on footpaths, trails, and bike paths. When it reaches the customer, all he or she has to do is enter a security code in his or her phone to tell the robot to unlock the storage compartment and deliver the pizza.

New Instagram update relegates time stamp to bottom of the post

Before you could easily see when an Instagram post was posted as the time stamp was located on the upper right portion of the app. Now, the social network has relegated it to the bottom of the post, much like the fine print to a contract. If you don't look for it, you just might not notice that it's there. It now shows up right after the comments of a post. The move can be seen as preparation for the social network as it plans to offer a more algorithm-based feed instead of a chronological one. It doesn't show up on everyone's feeds yet but it should be rolling out to all users soon.

Sony launches new PlayStation Video app on Android

Sony is making it easier for Android users to watch the content they buy on the PlayStation Store on a device outside of their PS system. The new PlayStation Video app lets you watch the shows and movies you've purchased. It's basically just a video player of sorts. But the app will also let you purchase more TV shows and movies right from within it. Most of the content on the PlayStation Store are, of course, made or distributed by Sony.

The movies become available either the day before or the same day of the DVD. And TV show episodes come out usually the day after it airs on its respective networks. Some of the new movies available on the service include The Hateful Eight, Concussion, and Pointbreak. Take note, though, that some of the shows and films may or may not appear for you due to license and availability issues.
