Volvo Cars has created a new ‘roam delivery’ app that allows consumers to have their shopping delivered straight to their boot, thanks to a new digital key technology.
Showcased this week at Mobile World Congress, the technology means that car owners will be able to choose their car as a delivery option when ordering goods online. Via a smartphone or a tablet, the owner will be informed when a delivery company wants to drop off or pick up something from the car.
Having accepted the delivery, the owner hands out a digital key and can track when the car is opened and then locked again. Once the pick-up or drop-off is completed, the digital key is destroyed.
