Humanoid robot with highest operational time in tests by US logistics giant

One of the world’s largest logistics provider, GXO, has partnered with Apptronik, a robot manufacturer. The collaboration aims to explpre Apptronik’s Apollo humanoid robot’s use in warehouses.

The companies claimed that together, they are evaluating the overall performance of the robot in a lab setting to further fine-tune Apptronik’s AI model before deploying the technology to a U.S. distribution center once ready. “We’re excited to partner with Apptronik to develop their AI-enabled humanoid robot. Apollo has great potential to add value throughout the distribution center, including the most labor-intensive operational processes,” said Adrian Stoch, Chief Automation Officer, GXO.

“Our mission is to build versatile robots that can do work in real-world applications – from large, powerful movements like transporting boxes and totes to small, precise ones like picking individual items or scanning barcodes,” said Jeff Cardenas, co-founder & CEO of Apptronik.
