Peaq unveils delivery robot system using USDT payments
A simulated delivery robot navigated Seoul streets and settled payments autonomously onchain, marking a step toward machines that earn and spend without human involvement.
Peaq has unveiled a simulated robotic delivery system capable of processing onchain payments through robotic.sh, its marketplace operating on peaqOS.
The showcase: a simulated workflow for a @ServeRobotics delivery robot navigating Seoul on NAVER Maps, settling onchain through @WDK_tether on Solana

The demonstration featured a delivery robot from Serve Robotics navigating Seoul using NAVER Maps and settling payments in Tether (USDT) through Solana using Tether’s Wallet Development Kit.
According to peaq, the workflow allows the robot to access a digital mapping service, make navigation decisions and process blockchain-based payments without human intervention. The company said transaction records, wallets and settlement activity are verifiable onchain.
The NAVER Maps integration is now available to machines running peaqOS through robotic.sh, which launched this week with multiple machine-accessible services. Peaq said the marketplace currently supports services including AI inference tools, search and data platforms, cloud-based analytics, CAPTCHA solving and decentralized storage.
The company said any mobile robot, autonomous vehicle, drone or humanoid operating on peaqOS can access the services regardless of the blockchain network the machine uses.
Peaq has established itself as one of the leading layer 1 networks dedicated to DePIN infrastructure, supporting over 60 applications in more than 20 industries and millions of machines and devices.
