Honeywell has announced a new automated robotic solution for unloading packages from truck trailers and shipping containers at distribution centres.
The robotic unloader uses artificial intelligence to operate fully autonomously inside of a trailer, which significantly reduces the manual effort required to operate receiving docks for retail merchandise and parcel distribution centres.
It drives into a trailer or container and uses machine vision to identify various package shapes and sizes as well as the optimal approach to unloading.
