Methods of performing a dispatched logistics operation related to an item being shipped and using a modular autonomous bot apparatus assembly and a dispatch server

Methods of performing a dispatched logistics operation for delivery / pickup of items using a modular autonomous bot apparatus assembly (with a modular autonomy module, cargo storage system, auxiliary power module, and mobility base) and a dispatch server. The modular autonomy control module receives a dispatch command from the dispatch server and authenticates that each of the modular components in the assembly are compatible with the particular dispatched logistics operation. The bot assembly receives the transported item, autonomously moves from an origin location to a destination per the dispatch command using the mobility base autonomously controlled by the modular autonomy control module, receives authentication input that at least correlates to authentication information in the dispatch comment to allow selective access to the modular cargo storage system of the bot assembly, and then autonomously returns to the origin after the item is detected removed from the cargo storage system.
