The delivery of a parcel to your door after placing an order on Amazon is an amazing story of efficiency and technology.
1:05
Like several football fields combined, Amazon's fulfillment centers are busy hubs, where millions of products are sorted, stored and shipped out every day.
1:13
We have to fill the centers that are as large as 1.25 million square feet.
1:17
That's like 23 football fields.
1:20
And in it, we'll have just millions of products.
1:22
Warehouse automation is an ingenious procedure that leverages technology to optimize inventory
1:27
movement while reducing human intervention.
1:30
At the heart of Amazon's warehouse, Marvel are different types of robots, each with a specific

role.
1:36
Let's peek into this high-tech world.
1:37
Kiva robots, some little orange marvels, travel through the warehouse, shifting and raising
1:43
product shelves.
1:44
Equipped with sensors and cameras, they adeptly traverse the expansive area while corresponding
1:49
with a central computer.
1:52
Transporting an incredible 750 pounds at a fast pace of 5 miles per hour, they deliver
1:57
shelves straight to human workers, cutting down on walking distance, boosting productivity,
2:03
and optimizing storage density.
2:11
Inside the warehouses are the drive robots, their larger siblings.
