AI meets Logistics - When we get robots into the warehouses then we know times are changing. Take a look at Handle - it is a mobile manipulation robot designed for logistics from BostonDynamix. Handle autonomously performs mixed SKU pallet building and depalletizing after initialization and localizing against the pallets. The on-board vision system on Handle tracks the marked pallets for navigation and finds individual boxes for grasping and placing. When Handle places a box onto a pallet, it uses force control to nestle each box up against its neighbours.
