An autonomous mobile robot that supports warehouse associates with picking and replenishment. Origin carries containers between work locations while people handle items. Its interface guides the workflow, reducing travel and allowing staff and robots to share responsibility for order fulfilment.

The useful work

  • Assisted order picking
  • Putaway
  • Replenishment
  • Container transport

The workplaces

  • E-commerce
  • Retail distribution
  • Third-party logistics
  • Healthcare distribution

How people fit in

Associates pick and place products while the robot performs travel and presents task instructions.

Availability & deployment

Commercial warehouse solution offered through Locus Robotics, including its robots-as-a-service model. Requires a warehouse workflow and systems integration assessment. Origin assists human picking; it is not itself a robotic picking arm.

Before deploying Locus Origin

These are editorial procurement questions, not results of independent product testing.

  • What loads, rack interfaces, routes and floor conditions have been validated?
  • How will the robot integrate with the warehouse system and existing traffic?
  • Who handles blocked routes, damaged goods, charging and system outages?
