A few years ago, unloading trailers and containers with autonomous robots was a breakthrough. Today, it’s a production reality with tens of millions of boxes moved. But when faced with certain challenges, like complex or chaotic stacking patterns, wedged boxes, or extreme SKU variety, robots can slow down or stall where a human intuitively adapts.
How do we narrow this gap? By leveraging Boston Dynamics’ decades-long experience building mobile robots, cutting-edge AI-driven methods, and traditional engineering.
Join us for an in-depth session as we explore the challenges in automating warehouse tasks like unloading trailers, and how recent advances in AI are rapidly changing how much and how quickly we can expand our autonomous capabilities in the most constrained and unpredictable environments.
In this webinar you’ll discover:
