Created by the former head of Tesla’s robot division, the Mytra system turns warehouse storage into a game of Tetris.
The warehouses of the world are surprisingly empty spaces. These essential nodes of the intricate global goods movement system are packed with stuff, but they also include a significant amount of empty floor space between their racks. It’s there to accommodate the workhorse of the warehouse—the forklift—which needs room to maneuver as it lifts and carries pallets topped with hundreds or thousands of pounds worth of goods. The forklift gets a dumb and dangerous job done, but requires a lot of room to do it.
