Robin

Robin is an AI-powered mobile bimanual robot developed by Roboligent Inc. (Austin, USA) for intelligent manufacturing automation. It combines a mobile base with dual compliant arms based on patented force-control soft robotics technology, enabling safe and precise collaboration alongside human workers. Robin uses imitation learning so it can quickly master new tasks from human demonstrations, targeting material handling, machine tending, and logistics in smart factories.

Amazon has over 1 million robot workers. What’s next for human employees?

Amazon now operates over 1 million robots across its warehouses while still employing 1.5 million human workers, making it both the largest operator of robots and the second-largest corporate employer in the world. The company's robotic fleet includes wheeled mobile robots like Hercules, Titan, and Proteus, along with increasingly capable robotic arms like Robin, Cardinal, Sparrow, and the newest touch-sensitive Vulcan, many powered by AI foundation models. While Amazon executives argue robots reduce injury risks by taking on dangerous tasks, labor advocacy groups cite data showing higher injury rates at robotic warehouses, raising questions about the human cost of automation at scale.
