Thanks! It's a really destructive job for workers' lower backs and elbow tendons. This actually puts into perspective the blended throughput rate - you can imagine loading a few bags really quickly, but moving 20kg bags for 10 minutes straight will slow you down. That said - we still have a lot of runway on speed for these mechanisms and are still running fairly conservatively as we shake out our software.

There are a few ways we plan to deploy (some fixed rails, some mobile). Since the carts we're loading aren't placed with much precision, even the fixed deployments need to do serious environmental perception / localization.
