A new generation of AI-powered robots is taking over warehouses

Australian Centre for Robotics

While these robotic systems look like other robot arms, they embed artificial intelligence, machine learning, and vision technology that will shape Amazon’s robot fleet for years to come. Robin, for example, must calculate how to identify, move, and sort parcels that may rest atop one another as they are presented via a conveyor. The palletizer / depalletizer must calculate how to stack a stable pallet on the fly. To do it, they use both cutting-edge AI algorithms that make decisions in fraction
