From a box of crayons to a container of what looks like garlic powder to a whisk broom, each item is grasped and moved with no human direction.
At the rate it’s going in the video, Amazon says the robot could handle more than 1,000 items an hour, meaning it could pick and stow items at rates several times faster than a human worker could. But it can pick up a new item and deposit it on a metal chute every three seconds.
The proof-of-concept machine uses an off-the-shelf metal pincher rather than some novel grasping device. The robotic arm in question does not look as futuristic as you might imagine.
