It's so obvious that there's a need.
And we're not just going to unload trucks.
We're going to do any box moving task in the warehouse.
And so it too will be a multi-purpose robot.
And we'll eventually have it doing palletizing or depalletizing or loading trucks or unloading trucks.
There's definitely thousands of robots.
There's probably tens of thousands of robots of this in the future.
So it's going to be profitable.
It looks like a big, strong robot arm on a mobile base.
The base is about the size of a pallet.
And we wanted it to be the size of a pallet because that's what lives in warehouses, right?
Pallets of goods sitting everywhere.

And in fact, the very first version of the logistics robot we built was a balancing robot, and that's called Handle.
Oh, it's a beautiful machine.
