Season’s Greetings From A Bunch of Robots
Posted in Technology and tagged with robots on 12/16/2007 12:14 am by uxmelinaWith work and seasonal festivities heating up I haven’t found much time to post. This video seemed to nicely create a festive combination of the traditional “Nutcracker” and Robots! Kiva Systems, a Boston based company “shaking up the world of material handling”, created the video to wish everyone a Happy Holidays. Imagine a warehouse where the product comes to you? Kiva is doing just that! “Pallets, cases, and orders are stored on inventory pods that are picked up and moved by a fleet of mobile robotic drive units”. The robotic drive units can be seen below performing “The Nutcracker”.
Enjoy, if this isn’t a statement of technology, I don’t know what is!
