Skypicker

Your high-speed robotic right hand.

The Skypicker is a robotic picking arm that picks goods that are carried by Skypod robots and places them into fulfillment containers. Our software suite synchronizes the Skypicker with the Skypod robots to ensure the highest degree of operational performance and efficiency.

Equipped with its own order mover, the Skypicker can prepare up to four orders simultaneously. It is capable of moving up to 600 items per hour, weighing up to 2 kilograms (4.4 pounds) with a minimum size of 2 x 2 centimeters (0.8 x 0.8 inches).

Intelligent picking and placement

The Skypicker leverages machine learning algorithms to intelligently pick items from the Skypod robots and place them in fulfillment containers. The cameras and sensors automatically detect items’ dimensions to pick and place them in a way that optimizes the available space.
