Interview with Christina Gomez-Terry of Plus One Robotics: Why warehouse robotics succeeds or fails at scale
Warehouse automation is evolving as logistics operators increasingly focus on scaling robotic systems. While the effectiveness of robotics in tasks like parcel picking, depalletizing, sorting, and palletizing has been demonstrated through various pilot projects and controlled deployments, the industry now faces the challenge of implementing these technologies on a larger scale. This shift comes as companies seek to enhance efficiency and productivity in their operations, responding to growing demands for faster and more reliable logistics solutions. As the sector moves forward, the emphasis will be on integrating robotics into existing workflows and expanding their capabilities across multiple facilities.

Doosan Robotics Unveils Award-Winning AI Robot Solution, as the Beginning of a New Path at CES 2026
Doosan Robotics Inc., a leader in collaborative robotic solutions, is set to showcase its latest innovations at CES® 2026, taking place from January 6 to 9 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The company will present the Scan & Go Autonomous Robotic Solution, which has garnered two CES Innovation Awards, including “Best of Innovation” in the AI category. This AI-driven system revolutionizes large-scale composite repair by utilizing cognitive learning and laser-based 3D vision to interpret complex geometries in real time, thereby eliminating the need for traditional CAD modeling. Deployed on an autonomous forklift, Scan & Go is designed to perform intricate tasks such as sanding and grinding on large structures, enhancing production efficiency and workplace safety. In addition, Doosan Robotics will unveil its AI-Powered Depalletizing demonstration, which features real-time motion planning using Nvidia cuMotion technology. This automated solution employs 3D vision for box recognition and obstacle avoidance, significantly improving operational efficiency in logistics environments. Kevin Kim, CEO of Doosan Robotics, emphasized the company's commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions that enhance efficiency and safety across various industries. Earlier this year, Doosan Robotics announced a strategic shift towards becoming an AI robotic solutions company, focusing on future growth and technological competitiveness. The company plans to launch its AI Palletizing Solution in the first half of this year, further solidifying its position in the robotics market.
