Samsung Develops Robot Capable of Working Around the Clock

The RX Business Promotion Division, which oversees Samsung Electronics' robot business, is validating the performance of a robot capable of operating 24 hours a day at industrial sites in Seoul's Nulim-dong R&D Park. While performing repetitive tasks such as moving goods in manufacturing and logistics environments, the robot also learns its surroundings and operational methods. An industry source stated that employees from Samsung Electronics and partner companies are working around the clock in three shifts to monitor the robot's operations. It is reported that Samsung Electronics is researching whether to exhibit this robot and other candidate products at CES.
