Handle Robot Reimagined for Logistics-YouTube


The V-shaped robot that works with two wheels is Handle. Handle is a logistics-oriented robot that can automatically load and unload packages from SKU pallets after initialization and localization to pallets.



I grabbed my luggage and backed it back ...




90 degree turn brilliantly with two wheels



And accelerate and stop to the front of another pallet



Loading and unloading of luggage is quite delicate.



It is also possible to flush the load loaded on the pallet into the line.



When I was pouring it on the line, I was somehow dropping the package from a certain height.



Let's take a look at how we pile up our luggage on the pallet.



Bring at a stretch until there is a certain gap between the load and the load ...



From there, adjust the position slowly until the packages touch or not touch each other.



Then the robot hand with a suction cup for lifting the load is released.



The vision system installed in Handle recognizes the position of each pallet and the position of Handle based on the mark of the QR code style placed in front of each pallet.



It is said that the box loaded with Handle, which appears in the movie, contains a weight of about 5 kg, but the handle design allows it to be carried up to a load of 15 kg.



The size of the pallet that Handle can handle is up to 1.7 meters long x 1.2 meters deep.



In the meantime, I quickly transferred packages from multiple pallets to one pallet.
