Meet the 8 robots powering Amazon’s next-gen fulfillment centers

Amazon Robotics is taking delivery operations to new heights. Amazon has more than 750,000 robots across its fulfillment centers that lift, sort, and carry packages to help employees with your orders safely and efficiently. From the inventory-organizing Sequoia to the autonomous Proteus and robotic arms like Robin, Cardinal, and Sparrow, these cutting-edge systems work in concert with employees to accelerate package processing and delivery.

Amazon’s robots use AI, computer vision, and intelligent navigation to provide employees with the right tools for the job. Employees also see increased safety and efficiency when working alongside these robotic companions. As Amazon continues scaling across its global network, customers can expect even more reliable deliveries powered by this seamless human and robot collaboration.
