INTRODUCTION & OVERVIEW

 Amazon, founded by Jeff Bezos in 1994.


 It is an American multinational electronic commerce company with headquarters in Washington, united
states. It is the world’s largest online retailer. the company also produces consumer electronics – notably
the amazon kindle e-book reader – and is a major provider of cloud computing services.
 Amazon has separate retail websites for the following countries: united states, Canada, united kingdom,
Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Japan, and China, with international shipping to certain other countries for
some of its products. it is also expected to launch its website in Poland, Netherlands, and Sweden.
 Jeff Bezos incorporated the company (as Cadabra) in July 1994, and the site went online as amazon.com
in 1995. amazon.com started as an online bookstore, but soon diversified, selling DVDs, CDs, mp3
downloads, software, video games, electronics, apparel, furniture, food, toys, and jewelry.

Challenges
 Increasing demand for faster, reliable delivery.
 Amazon needed to control the last mile experience to ensure customer satisfaction and manage costs.
ROBOTIC FULFILMENT CENTRES

 Kiva robots: Kiva robots, which are now part of amazon robotics, are automated
mobile robots that transport shelves with goods to human operators for picking,
streamlining warehouse operations and improving efficiency.

 Robotic arms: Amazon uses robotic arms to streamline the fulfillment process by
moving individual products before they are packaged, automating tasks like picking,
sorting, and moving items.

 AI inventory tracking: Employing machine learning for demand forecasting,


optimizing warehouse operations, and streamlining the delivery process, ultimately
improving efficiency and customer experience.
AUTOMATED PACKAGING & MIDDLE-MILE

 Automated packing machines: It uses sensors to measure an order’s dimensions and then
creates a correctly sized, protective bag using a more durable, weather-resistant paper and
heat-sealing technology.

 Computer vision: They use computer vision to detect defects in project. Computer vision
techniques like object detection and recognition are integrated into a heads-up display that
helps them locate, scan, sort and move inventory without needing a handled scanner or
referencing hard-copy forms.

 Middle-Mile logistics: The middle mile refers to the transformation of goods between
warehouse, distribution centres and fulfilment centres essentially moving products from
one facility to another before they are shipped to the final customer or retail store.
Sparrow
This robotic arm picks up and moves
individual items from containers into
specific totes to send off to employees
before they’re packaged.
• Cardinal
• Cardinal is a robotic arm that uses advanced AI
and computer vision to quickly select one
package out of a pile of packages delivered via a
chute, lift it with air suction, read the label, and
precisely place it into the appropriate cart
before it’s brought to a truck in the loading dock.

Robin
The first robotic arm ever deployed by amazon robotics,.
Made to sort packages before they’re brought to the outbound dock to be
placed on a truck.
Robin grabs packages from conveyor belts and puts them onto robotic
drive units to be moved to the next part of the facility. It also transfers
damaged packages to ensure optimal quality control.
CENTRAL AI & LOGISTICS CONTROL

Real-time Monitoring: Tracks millions of packages, vehicles, robots and order


simultaneously.

Predictive maintenance: AI analyzes data from machines to predict when they’ll


break down.
Fixes or schedules maintenance before failure happens.

Route optimization: Dynamically adjusts delivery routes based on traffic, weather


or delays.

Load balancing: Keeps operations smooth and efficient during peak demand.
CONCLUSION

Amazons logistics showcases how automation, ai and robotics are transforming the way
products are stored, packed, shipped and delivered all with minimal human intervention.

 24/7 operations :robots and ai doesn’t need breaks, enabling non-stop processing,
packaging and shipping.

 Faster delivery
 Increased accuracy
 Real time data and predictive analytics: ai can detect inefficiencies, forecast demand
and optimize supply chain automatically.
