Amazon's New Vulcan Robots for Fulfilment Centres Have a ‘Sense of Touch’
Amazon introduced a new warehouse-focused robot last week that can carefully manipulate a wide range of objects. Dubbed Vulcan, the new class of robots feature force feedback sensors that allow it to understand the amount of force it is applying while picking an object or pushing a cart. These robots will be used in the tech giant’s fulfilment centres globally and are designed to assist the human workers.
