Robots are rolling through Kansas City.

It's all part of a testing trial for Starship Technologies, the same company that owns Skype.

College students from the University of Arkansas spent Friday in Kansas City introducing the robots to neighbors at Union Station.

The robots are being used right now in Europe. They can move around 4 miles per hour and carry 20-25 pounds of cargo.
