…as IAM Robotics, offer “mobile manipulation” robots that can pick items. In short, there are multiple types of robotics, and they often work in combination with people, or with fixed forms of automation like conveyors. This range of solution types is the first thing potential users need to realize about warehouse robotics. Robotics vendors say there are other ways that…
