Do you like playing Pokémon Go? It is a fun game on your phone. Many people walk around and catch small monsters every day. When players walk, they take photos of buildings and parks. These photos are very useful for scientists. Scientists use the photos to make new maps of our cities. These are special maps for robots, not for people. In the future, robots will use these maps to move around safely. They will bring things to your home. For example, a robot could bring you a hot pizza or some groceries. Groceries are food and items from the supermarket. This is very exciting because it helps robots find their way. Pokémon players are like little helpers for the future. They show robots where to go. Is there a robot in your city? Maybe one day, a robot will bring food to your house!
