A new robot, Stretch designed to move boxes in warehouses by Boston Dynamics

The makers of Spot the robot dog, Boston Dynamics has unveiled a new robot, Stretch. Stretch is designed to work in warehouses moving boxes, with a long robotic arm for moving objects.

 

Boston Dynamics says, it's a "box-moving robot designed to support the growing demand for flexible automation solutions in the logistics industry". It is the company's first entrance into warehouse automation, although Spot has been used in some warehouses.

 

The new robot is optimized for any tasks that require moving boxes, including unloading trucks and eventually building orders. The base can move in different directions to navigate loading docks and maneuver around tight spaces and changing layouts.

 

Boston Dynamics says Stretch's robotic arm is lightweight and custom-designed with a "smart gripper" that can handle different types of boxes and coverings. Computer vision technology enables Stretch to identify boxes without need specific training for each customer.

 

The company is looking for pilot customers to test Stretch before it is commercially available in 2022.
