AMRs use a combination of 3D cameras, LiDAR sensors and sophisticated AI programs to interact with their environments. Apptronik, based in Austin, TX, is making major strides in the development of AMRs. They recently unveiled Apollo, a "general purpose humanoid robot designed to work in the real world." Imagine having a full-cohort of "employees" that need no breaks and require no benefits. New fear unlocked?
