Handle Robot Reimagined for Logistics

Thousands of people do this for a living; I did it for a few years. I'd love to see a day when these processes are automated to the point where human involvement would simply get in the way. Sorting and distributing inventory is important work, but imagine all the human brainpower that is wasted on this task today.

As an aside, Handle was clearly designed as a proof-of-concept. In most warehouse settings, a more efficient design would be a ceiling mounted robot with a single rotating arm.

We have a truly achieved the peak of evolution, a true robot chicken

Can two robotic arms be set up front and back? Improve handling efficiency.

Could have started from the pallet second from the right and saved a bunch of time the robot empties the entire pallet.

How deos it stand like that!?

20x slower than a human 😂 and how long are they going to last before they break down? They look badly designed, oof!

My dad used to sell pallet jacks (the hand operated gizmo attached to the pallet the AI gizmos are taking boxes off of.✌️

Getting it done! No bad attitude. No texting or talking on the phone.. No stealing.. Welcome robots.

It looks like a dinosaur or a giant bird

What in the Aperture Science bullshit is this!?

I think any human would have just moved the pallet jack closer.

Alles schön und gut zum Helfen. ABER, nicht nur das sie kosten den Menschen ihren Arbeitsplatz und somit keinen Job mehr und das ist Scheiße Leute. ☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️😎

I like how all the robot/automation haters are also the same people that shame or turn a blind eye on their fellow burntout workers just asking for some time off.

Beyond stupid. Any human could do this and many are UNEMPLOYED!

OMG!

Bravo

Хорошо, но пока человек быстрее

Good beginning, It still need some changes like the size and flexibility & speeding

It's just fascinating to see these bird bots work

That's a huge nutsack

You know Amazon is intense keeping tabs on this one for future prospects...

humans are bipedal for lung capacity, robots don't have lungs. makes no sense to design robots with 2 legs and waste energy on balancing themselves.

Is this actually real?

Great fun, incredible to see, fascinating designs. This is the future, and upon these test beds, speed, efficiency and cost effectiveness will follow. When will they get their unionisation upgrades when they become irreplaceable when all of humankind is sitting on the same beach drinking the same cocktail and therefore doing something "really cool". ie nothing?

🌹 GOOD JOB FAIR

why does it got a dumpy

how much price ?

HOLY SHART- FIRST 10 SECONDS AND IM BLOWN AWAYYY :0000

this is a good step on but its a million miles away from a productivity perspective.

I can’t wait to see when they become DISGRUNTLED LOL 😝, Those mechanics 🧰 must get paid very well and I’ll bet you they don’t wanna hear no crap about it neither. Same as Airline Mechanics, you definitely want to keep them happy 😊. BUT of course they’re probably not English Speaking Americans. Geez 🙄 Go Figure.

Yeah I just don't see how the hell CEOs think this will improve the bottoming. They're not even that fast. The maintenance and upkeep for these things will be ridiculous. The electric power source won't be cheap. Not to mention the fact that this "warehouse" isn't a true warehouse. It's a test environment setup exactly so that these robots can succeed. They would never be as productive as this in a real work environment and they're not even that fast in this video.

I got to say, those are robots are dummy thicc!

This robot has two wheels instead of 4 and for that reason it is forced to resort to solutions of additional components, it makes too wide movements instead of making precise movements in a small space and does not have an extendable arm.
Moreover the metal that composes it (the external one that can be oxidized) is not stainless metal.
So it's a lousy and obsolete robot ... and it was lousy and obsolete since its construction

Can it still jump, tho?

Are they real or it is 3d visualisation?

I can see these ostrich bots zooming around large warehouses fetching items and moving small parcels around, which frees up room for mass transit systems to move items more efficiently.

Coming to Amazon warehouse near you.

I feel like they made the robot move on 2 wheels just to flex

👷👷‍♂️👷‍♀️➡️❌ 🤖🦾🦿➡️✅

damn do they move smoothly

edit: also how fast they move without almost tipping is disturbing

They look like ancient big Birds or Dinosaurs lol.

it's a counterweight

I'll be honest with you these robots will break down a lot and the cost is going to be astronomical, they're like 100 years or more away from replacing an actual human who can palletize 90 cubic feet with boxes weighing in at 44lbs and below with dozens of sizes and at -20° Fahrenheit in the frozen and the pallet has to be perfect to fit in the trailer 😂
And a human can work 10, 20, 30, 40+ years with no injuries 🤣

My boy has a real ball of stell

Hanzhen harmonic drive gear , strain wave reducer, robot joint , over 30 years experience

They look like birds lol

Now lets see them move boxes with a realistic amount of weight. The retailer I work at, 90% of the boxes are far too heavy for this. Not that I assume the bot can't lift it, but the box top will tear right off.

Still a lot slower than a human picking boxes

This is a robot Ostrich.

You can't change my mind. Boston Dynamics is literally building Megaman stage enemies.
