do they really have this kind of jobs of moving parts from one shelf to another in a real factory?
I think a more impressive demo would be last-mile package delivery, since it can climb stairs and operate elevators.
- enragedcacti 2y agoYes they definitely do, see very similar numbered organizers in the background of this video [1]. In auto mfg they need to reliably build dozens of configurations on one line while maintaining impeccable part tracking for auditing and triage purposes. Each shelf on the left could be a different version of the engine cover for a different trim and the shelf on the right will be brought to a station where workers will pick from it based on the number the computer tells them for the exact vehicle in front of them. This helps make sure the customer gets what they purchased and helps for QC and recalls. If one batch is bad then this system allows them to pinpoint down to the exact VINs that were affected.

- dyauspitr 2y agoThis is a job that currently employs a massive number of humans in Amazon warehouses. When you order a product on Amazon, they currently have autonomous robots that bring in entire shelves of that product up to a person standing at a counter, who picks the product from the shelf, puts it into a box and sends it off for shipping. This could take all those jobs away.
