That's actually an interesting idea. If you had VR could you actually do it remotely? Or is there something that has to be done by hand?
I work at a company that makes robot-assisted pallet-jacks. This could totally be done if you think it is possible.
@Sibshops @nixCraft assuming nothing spills then I don't have to get off, but straightening pallets, picking up dropped stuff, etc is pretty common.
now if spills would be decreased from more accurate automated driving therefore decreasing the frequency a driver would have to get up, that might change things but idk.
