Abstract
Robots are increasingly tested in public spaces, towards a future where urban environments are not only for humans but for autonomous systems. While robots are promising, for convenience and efficiency, there are challenges associated with building cities crowded with machines. This paper provides an overview of the problems and some solutions, and calls for greater attention on this matter.
