Is this much of a big deal by comparison with existing palletising robots?
But it *does* show, I think, that the "general meme" is taking hold in
robotics - a growing desire for a robot that can do *anything* in a given
range of handling without special programming. "General box handling",
which seems to be this robot's thing, isn't a big deal, but it's a start.
