"Honeywell has introduced an automated robotic solution for unloading a wide range of packages from truck trailers and shipping containers at distribution centers. The robotic unloader can operate fully autonomously inside of a trailer to reduce the manual effort required to operate receiving docks.
The robotic unloader drives into a trailer or container and uses machine vision to identify various package shapes and sizes as well as the optimal approach to unloading. A robotic arm with a series of small suction cups conforms to the package shape to gently extract it from the stack. A conveyor below the arm can serve as a sweeper for packages to move them out of the trailer."
