Plus One is now undertaking a new initiative that will further streamline operations for its clients: the Yonder Project, which enables robots to be human-assisted from anywhere in the world via cameras and the cloud.
"We make the eyes for the robots to be able to work in those environments," said Plus One Robotics Founder and CEO Erik Nieves. "They do the same thing over and over again, and that works when you're going to build cars. It doesn't work when you have to move packages or fulfill orders."
Robots are able to call for assistance from locally-based crew chiefs if adjustments are necessary.
Demand for Plus One's technology has accelerated significantly to satisfy the increase of online purchasing during the COVID-19 crisis.
"These robots don't need to do social distancing and don't need to wear the masks," says Plus One Robotics Developer Zachary Keeton. "San Antonio is ushering in a new era of remote labor."
