Boston Dynamics' Logistics Robot Is Available For Purchase
Stretch, a logistics robot from Boston Dynamics that's capable of moving boxes and unloading cargo, is now on sale for anyone who wants to purchase one. Though, as TechCrunch notes, "deliveries are not expected until 2023 and 2024." From the report: The company predictably cites ongoing labor issues as a key driver in interest around the new robot. "Labor shortages and supply chain snags continue to create challenges in keeping the flow of goods moving," says CEO Robert Playter. "Stretch makes logistics operations more efficient and predictable, and it improves safety by taking on one of the most physically demanding jobs in the warehouse. Many of our early adopter customers have already committed to deploying the robot at scale, so we are excited Stretch will soon be put to work more broadly, helping retailers and logistics companies handle the continued surging demand for goods."Read more of this story at Slashdot.
