“How do the robots work? They move along a grid system.” No shit?
-
Very poor video. 4 minutes of rolling robots ! What do they do, where does the produce enter the system, how does the robot pack the crate, how do the crates move. VERY uninformative.
-
The explanation of how they work is ridiculous. I have more questions now than I did before watching this video.
-
They are controlled by an air traffic control system ???? 😂😂😂
-
Not very informative.
-
Not clearly explained :/

I've been an Ocado customer for nigh on twenty years. The robot system in Andover is amazing. I've watched these videos many times and I'm still in awe. Absolutely fantastic. I so wish they had open days to actually be there to watch. My orders come from Andover and it would make an old girl really happy to be able to see my weekly order being picked and packed. Wishful thinking I suppose ....

More information on what the bots are actually doing would be really great. Do they get assigned one persons order each and travel around until they have all the items, then deliver them to an allocated slot? Or is there one bot per grocery item delivering their one item to all the customer crates that have ordered the item? Or do the bots only replace empty grocery crates? As shown?
-
Weird. A lot of video. And no explaination at all.
-
Leaked video of the new Wall-E movie
-
"they are using 4G, and thats how they don't crash". LOL They don't crash because few under payed programmers did the whole job writing the algorithm. 4G is just communication protocol.
-
This video does not explain the most basic question: what are these carriages actually doing. I thought they drop stuff into the crates, but they don't. So what do they actually do? Only placing a crate at a certain position? Why?
-
I thought this was about Amazon for a second
-
yeah, but where do the groceries come from in this system?
-
Woah, I had no idea ordering from Ocado was so futuristic! I thought someone went round the warehouse with a shopping list collecting the items, putting them into bags, and then loading the van 🙈 xx
-
They all look so HAPPY!
-
I wish there was footage of how the pick and pack orders.
-
If one of those things breaks down in the middle. Imagine trying to get to it haha
-
My favorite part: 2:02- "How does the system work? The robots act as a giant goods-to-person system." 🤣🤣🤣 Who wrote this script,

POV: you came here after Tom Scott’s video
