Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 48280, member: 636"] Amazon just hit a major robot record at one of its warehouses in Japan. The company added its one millionth robot to the workforce around the globe. The tech giant also rolled out a smart computer system called DeepFleet that makes these machines move faster. This new artificial brain speeds up robot travel routes about 10 percent. The company saves huge amounts of time and money because of this upgrade. Amazon keeps about 1.56 million people on its payroll right around the world. Most of these workers spend their days inside massive warehouse buildings. The robot army grows bigger every month and might overtake human staff numbers soon. These mechanical helpers do all kinds of jobs like grabbing items off shelves and moving boxes around. Some robots even sort packages before they ship out to customers. The robot team has different specialists for different tasks. Hercules can lift incredibly heavy stuff that weighs up to 1,250 pounds. Pegasus works with packages using a special moving belt system. Proteus stands out as the first robot that moves around completely alone and can work safely near people. This smart machine carries heavy carts without any human help. Company leaders say robots change how people work rather than steal their jobs. About 700,000 workers learned new skills to work with the machines. Staff members handle more technical jobs like watching over robot systems instead of doing hard physical work. Amazon tests even smarter robots that listen to worker commands and builds humanoid machines with arms, legs and heads. [/QUOTE]
