We gained great perspective of how fast the company is growing, a real feel of what it is like to work at Amazon Robotics and how much more productive the Amazon Fulfillment centers have become thanks to this new robotic systems. We were impressed by the bots\u2019 assembly process, the precision involved, automation and speed. It\u2019s fair to say there was innovation all over the place!<\/p>\n<p>The cherry on top of our warehouse tour was looking at the bots being tested. Bots were navigating around the warehouse by following a series of computerized 2D bar-code stickers on a predetermined path on the floor.<\/p>\n<p>Near the end of the morning, we enjoyed a conversation with Chad and his team. We discussed the evolution of automation processes, the 4th industrial revolution and even learn more about careers in IT at Amazon Robotics.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you CIS Sandbox and Chad Wright! for allowing us to enjoy such great experience, we learn and grow because of these continues company visits. Excited about what is to come on this robotic era.<\/p>\n<p><em>Written by: Carmen Cardenas | MSMBA candidate class of 2018, Bentley University<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Learn more about the robots <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=urWtlOVhg_4\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7668 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/cis.bentley.edu\/sandbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20180316_102211244-300x249.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_20180316_102211244\" width=\"300\" height=\"249\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cissandbox.bentley.edu\/sandbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20180316_102211244-300x249.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cissandbox.bentley.edu\/sandbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20180316_102211244-800x663.jpg 800w, https:\/\/cissandbox.bentley.edu\/sandbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20180316_102211244-750x622.jpg 750w, https:\/\/cissandbox.bentley.edu\/sandbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20180316_102211244-440x365.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>** Current students **<\/strong> Interested in more opportunities like this?
