How mobile robots boost productivity

Found in Robotics News & Content, with a score of 2.13

November 11, 2019

…bought up by the biggest e-commerce player of them all—Amazon. Today, dozens of vendors offer AMR solutions, and others offer piece-picking robotic arms. There are different AMR approaches, too. Some solutions follow a “goods-to-person” principle in which robots bring mobile shelf units filled with items to a workstations, while other AMRs meet up with human pickers in the aisles to guide them through a set of picks within a relatively dense section of the warehouse. In either case, the goal is to vastly reduce the amount of walking or “travel” that takes up much a warehouse associate’s day. Going forward,…


Will Robots Find a Place in the Smart Home?

…Fig. 1: The temi home robot combines advanced sensing, Amazon’s Alexa virtual assistant technology, and AI-enabled facial and voice recognition to deliver a mobile smart home hub that promises to take human-machine interaction to a new level. Image courtesy of temi USA. Multiple Personalities One vision of this technology divides the robots into two types of systems: service robots and social robots. In both cases, these machines can be part of the drive toward greater automation in the home. Within the context of the smart home, service robots provide utility functions on behalf of their owners (Fig. 2). Current examples…

…load of TVs. Another person told me that, recently, Amazon (of all companies) lost the mattress he ordered. The support agent admitted to it: “We're sorry but, unfortunately, we lost your mattress in our warehouse.” They wound up sending him a different one. Who knows what happened to the first one. Admittedly, it took more than just a few conversations to fully wrap my head around the problem - to understand how much money and resources modern warehouses spend trying to answer the same seemingly simple question every day: where is my stuff? Here are just a few of the…


What Exactly Is Hyperlocal Fulfillment?

Found in Robotics News & Content, with a score of 2.81

September 26, 2019

…Demand for Instant Fulfillment Thanks in large part to Amazon's ever-accelerating fulfillment speed, e-commerce has become a race to the front door. Same-day delivery for urban customers has become simply table stakes, and the bar is moving higher with even shorter delivery windows on offer. Customers are growing used to faster fulfillment, with close to half expecting delivery speeds to continue increasing, according to a recent survey.[9] As same-day delivery becomes too slow, retailers will strive to match the “30-minutes or free” standard that used to be a pizza delivery promise. If you could begin deliveries only blocks from your…

…“It’s awesome to say I’m a robotics tech for Amazon.” Extending Human Capabilities Amazon currently enlists the help of more than 100,000 robots, which operate using the AWS cloud, to fulfill customer orders. These robots complement human capability to “help make us smarter,” according to Tye Brady, Amazon robotics chief technologist. “Our three principles – lower prices, wider selection, and enhanced customer experience – will not scale up by manual labor only, they keep accelerating and growing only if we augment and supplement human intelligence with machine intelligence” Brady believes we can accomplish this with collaborative robots “who work in…
