Our Verdict: A groundbreaking human-safe warehouse AMR from the company that pioneered modern warehouse robotics.

Amazon Robotics Proteus represents a paradigm shift in warehouse automation. Unlike Amazon’s earlier Kiva systems that operated in caged zones, Proteus navigates freely among human workers using advanced perception and safety systems. It autonomously transports GoCarts loaded with packages throughout fulfillment centers.

Proteus uses a green light detection system to signal its presence and intentions to nearby workers, while its multi-sensor safety suite ensures collision-free operation. The robot seamlessly integrates with Amazon’s broader robotics ecosystem including Robin, Sparrow, and Cardinal systems.
