…the robots to develop a touch soft enough to minimize damage, the two teams had to design the goods-to-robot work cells. To do so, Berkshire Grey built an Ichikawa-like test environment at its headquarters in Bedford, Mass. Initially, Okabe was able to visit to participate in the design; then came COVID-19. From then on, that work took place remotely using…

…to manual mode with the touch of a button. Infrastructure-free navigation, using LiDAR simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) technology, allows the trucks to integrate into existing operations by mapping structural features, without laser reflectors, guide wires or magnets. The ability to deploy a single unit before expanding also helps provide a lower cost of entry and greater scalability for customers,…
