About the Stretch

The Boston Dynamics Stretch is an autonomous mobile warehouse robot purpose-built for high-throughput case handling in logistics and distribution centres. Combining a compact omnidirectional mobile base, a 7-degree-of-freedom robotic arm, a custom vacuum gripper, and an AI-powered computer vision system, Stretch autonomously unloads trailers and shipping containers while handling mixed case sizes without prior SKU programming. Capable of moving 600–800 cases per hour, reaching loads up to 23 kg, and operating for up to 16 hours with the high-capacity battery, Stretch is designed to improve warehouse productivity, reduce manual handling, and integrate into existing warehouse infrastructure with minimal facility modifications.

Typical applications: Logistics & Warehousing, Manufacturing & Industrial Operations, Industrial & AI Development, Distribution Centres.
