How Amazon Robotics Helps Fill Orders, Create Jobs

Found in Robotics News & Content, with a score of 17.08

May 09, 2021

Last week, local news outlets reported new Amazon.com Inc. distribution and fulfillment centers in Shreveport, La., and Savannah, Ga. The Seattle-based company has continued to open such facilities across the U.S. as e-commerce demand rises, and it said that each one will employ about 1,000 people. In addition, Amazon's centers will include robots from its Amazon Robotics unit in North Reading, Mass. Last year, Amazon had more than 185 fulfillment centers across the U.S., according to CNBC. Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards said that construction of the $200 million, 650,000-sq.-ft. Shreveport center, the first one in his state, will begin…

The Current State of Labor in Supply Chain and Logistics

…have drastically increased over the last few years. With Amazon as the number-one online retailer offering free one-day shipping–and, most recently, two-hour shipping–consumers expect their packages to arrive immediately and free of charge. This shift in expectations has raised the bar for fulfillment: If companies can’t keep up with Amazon’s standards, for example, they risk losing market share to competitors that can. Prior to the pandemic, retail, e-commerce, and business-to-business (B2B) fulfillment operators were increasingly turning to collaborative mobile robots to gain operational flexibility to support growth and contain labor requirements. The pandemic accelerated the surge of automation needs.


7 Reasons Why Warehouse Robots Beat Traditional Automation

…to $4.88 trillion, more than double 2017 figures. The Amazon effect is at the heart of this e-commerce boom: consumers are empowered to demand what they want and when. These demands aren’t what they used to be, catching retailers and service providers ill-equipped to keep up. With shrinking store footprints and faster product turns, warehouse operators have been shifting to accommodate more SKUs and lower order quantities, while struggling to staff for growing demand and supporting service level goals. This new fulfillment landscape is forcing the hands of supply chain executives, leaving them no option but to automate or fold.…


Walmart Joins $750M Investment in Autonomous Vehicle Firm Cruise

In January 2021, Cruise and parent company General Motors announced that they will work with Microsoft's Azure cloud computing platform as they develop and commercialize self-driving vehicles. Microsoft joined GM, Honda, and other investors in investing $2 billion in Cruise. Last month, Cruise acquired Voyage, which has been working on technology to provide autonomous mobility in senior citizen communities. Autonomous vehicle companies accounted for more than $3.3 billion in transactions in the first quarter of 2021. Last week, TuSimple Holdings announced an IPO…

…general, there aren't enough people,” responded Huerta. “Even as Amazon fulfillment centers are growing, people are jumping ship for a 50-cent change in salary. In addition, people see the advancements in driverless cars and ask, 'Why aren't they in our warehouses?'” “We're one of the few applying an AMR philosophy to forklifts, tuggers, and palletization,” he said. “Our primary focus is on logistics, but we're also holding onto our development aspect for advanced robotics applications such as healthcare.” “Once we can do what we can in the warehouse, we want to go outside in the trucks, where we understand there…


Disruption vs. Hype: What Is the Reality for Robotics?

Found in Robotics News & Content, with a score of 4.56

April 09, 2021

…After all, the cloud is a commodity. Companies like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, SAP, and others make billions of dollars because they know how to package, deliver, and support that commodity at scale. So it will be with autonomous robots. Execution will drive AMR adoption If all the above factors have only heightened demand for AMRs in sectors like logistics, manufacturing, retail, consumer goods, and pharma, then we should expect a large number of robots to enter service in those sectors. However, I do not expect that robot uptake will be concomitant with demand until we have resolved the product/market…

…doesn’t need expensive programming. The ideal is like an Amazon warehouse—software is making all the decisions, but humans are working side by side with robots and autonomous systems. The mix of manual and automated labor will change and develop over the years as solutions change and develop. The future depends on the first stage, the current stage, working well. Ingredient technologies enabling autonomy Artificial intelligence is one of the key enabling ingredient technologies, but it is not the only one. In the past few years, machine learning, computer vision, and deep learning have enabled some amazing capabilities and tasks. However,…
