What about stairs/raised sidewalks?
3 comments

It looks like the rear wheels can moved up and down to give it more ground clearance for sidewalks.

I presume it only works in areas that are wheelchair accessible, and any areas it has trouble with (such as a flight of stairs in an apartment), it could notify the recipient to come and collect it.

Maybe they could use the same design as the stair-scaling wheelchair that was featured on HN few days ago?
The Daleks figured it out eventually, I'm sure these guys will too.
Seriously? Those things travelled millions of light-years but yet they were stopped by a flight of stairs.
