Ever wonder how Amazon gets all those items that you ordered out of the warehouse and into a box ready to be dropped in the mail...

The first time I saw robots like this live was at the Lego factory in Denmark where robots were picking up bins of newly molded 'bricks' from the injection molding machines and delivering them to the warehouse where they were boxed-up and sent-off to where the kits were being packaged which often were in other countries around the world. In this case, it was a totally 'lights-out' operation (actually there were lights on, just that this term refers to where a factor floor has no humans at all, only a remote supervisor keeping a watch over closed-circuit TV).
