Pudu Robotics has unveiled an AI-powered autonomous pallet handler designed to transport heavy loads between floors in warehouses and factories, with the ability to pick up pallets in as little as 20 seconds. The device uses 3D lidar and depth cameras to identify pallet locations, avoid obstacles, and adapt to different pallet formats and misaligned loads. When deployed alongside other robots from the same company, the MP2000 coordinates tasks through distributed fleet intelligence that maintains operation even during network outages. The robot can also communicate with facility equipment like doors and elevators, and includes a manual override option to function as a powered forklift.
