Amazon robots: the coding that went into this is *insane*

Hi Guys.

 

As the guy responsible for site content, I spend a fair amount of time each week researching trends and topics we should invest more into here on element14. I'm currently on the hunt for cool topics in industrial automation and factory robotics. I came upon the following video which shows how Amazon's warehouse automation uses automatic pallet fetchers to fulfill customer orders. I've watched it twice already, and it still blows me away that this actually works.

I hope you enjoy watching it, too. image

 

Are there areas of industrial automation you'd like to learn more about, or examples of topics and content you'd like to see more of here on element14?

 

Let me know!

 

Cheers,
Sagar

    Paul-- That was pretty mesmerizing. I liked the Kraftwerk-inspired music as well! Kind of funny how there were nearly as many lights in the audience as everyone was trying to capture the experience on…

    I bet there are some _hilarious_ outtakes during quality assurance testing.
