Don't need to think about it. Effortless. Natural extension. Instinctual and fluid. Like all elite performers, warehouse workers are in a state of flow when they feel like this ☝ Designing an interaction to require constant or frequent conscious action is disruptive and costly. There's real power in robots that can blend into the workflow vs. demand attention. In helping workers accomplish more, truly #collaborativerobots don't compete with or ask more from workers throughout their day. Being invisible-in-use directly contributes to ROI because people use and enjoy things that feel natural - which leads to adoption and scale. #RobotsForHumans 🤖 🤝

If a robot needs a "For Dummies" manual, you may need to rethink its design and purpose. People shouldn't have to tax their brains or bodies to jive with robots in their workspace. Robots need to move in concert with workers, complimenting needs and behaviors in ways that are repeatable, intuitive, and satisfying. "Why should I have to change?" Is a powerful question, and the answer should be, "You don't." Carter™ Pro works with and for people 👇 #RobotsForHumans 🤖 🤝

"We have an opportunity now to invent a future where people are the stars of the show and robots are part of the supporting cast of characters." Congrats on a great session at TEDx Palo Alto, Leila Takayama! If anything from robot design to social psychology to warehouse worker satisfaction piques your interest, this is well-worth a listen.

Our growing relationship with DHL Supply Chain is a big point of pride and excitement heading into the holiday season and 2025. 🌟 Last month, our VP of Revenue, Ben Gruettner, represented RobustAI at the DHL Tech Conference in Austin. DHL continues to show that continuous improvement and innovation is in their DNA. Our team - and Carter™ Pro - is honored to be part of it. 🤝
A few weeks ago I had the honor to speak at the DHL Technology Conference in Austin, TX. While it was not a surprise, it was incredible to see first hand DHL’s dedication to revolutionizing operations for their customers. With the focus on AI and Innovation, it was amazing to witness the knowledge and collaboration DHL shares with their customers and partners. Thanks to Angelos Orfanos, Dr. Klaus Dohrmann, Ernesto Camacho III, MBA, Alexander Gunde, Thijs Hulstman and the entire DHL team for allowing me to be part of such an amazing event! #dhl #robustai #innovation #ai #robotics

AMR solutions that require tech-defined (not people-defined) use cases promote a behavioral crash diet instead of a long term healthy lifestyle. We have to stop seeing human agency as an inhibitor for transformative technology (See Rodney Brooks' 2nd Law of Robotics). The opportunity for #embodiedAI to achieve better results AND make people happier is huge. Image credit to the talented John Bleau!

Combining the strengths of people AND robots (vs. thinking in terms of people OR robots) gets you to what's possible right now, faster - and better. 💫 #RobotsforHumans, in theory, is nice. In practice, it's intangible. 🤖 🤝 AMR opportunity is in #collaboration and "real life" #EmbodiedAI. How does Carter™ Pro work for people? See below. 👇

Launching new products is an expectation. Your team, industry, and existing customers love it, but without the promise of real-life impact, it's "just another product" to everyone else. Carter™ Pro is a robot built to work for people. It's design and purpose embodies Rodney Brooks' Three Laws of Robotics. These laws form the WHY and bigger-picture impact that mean everything to our team and brings a new level of #collaboration to the market. More on Carter Pro and Rodney's Three Laws in the comments ⬇ #robotsforhumans 🤖 🤝

Going gentle into the end of 2024 isn't on tap for us - or other companies who launched new products and services in October. There's exciting momentum coming out of the Carter™ Pro announcement, and we can't wait to see new levels of #collaboration come to life in the coming months. In case this news is news to you, check out the release from last week's official launch: https://lnkd.in/e-CP_cmB #robotsforhumans 🤖 🤝

To train and understand a robot in seconds, it needs to be designed for zero friction. Which is why this on-stage moment demonstrating ease of use is one of our favorites.
