Arrive AI secures ninth U.S. patent for AI-powered smart mailbox

Arrive AI (ARAI) obtained its ninth U.S. patent for its artificial intelligence powered, smart mailbox designed for autonomous and conventional package delivery. “This latest patent establishes our Arrive Points as the first device ever to win patent protection for a smart mailbox docking station housing that is accessible by drone, robots and humans,” said Arrive AI CEO Dan O’Toole. “We were already ahead in this race to offer a secure endpoint for the last inch in the package delivery industry’s logistical last mile. The cements that first position status and further refines our product.” O’Toole said improvements covered by the new patent – No. US 12,387,072 B2 – strengthen the security of the company’s Arrive Points by reducing ways the units could be tampered or damaged by weather or other impacts. They also enable the addition of autonomous battery exchange, drone charging pads and sensor arrays without needing a major structural redesign.
