The American robotics company Boston Dynamics is known for YouTube videos of its dog-like “Spot” and humanoid(类人型的) “Atlas” robots. It recently made public a new robot called Stretch. It is designed to do only one job: to move containers, or boxes, in large buildings called warehouses(仓库). Michael Perry is a manager of business development for Boston Dynamics. He said Stretch is the first robot designed for one job that the company has built. He added that the robot was developed because of requests from companies around the world. “We heard across warehousing that truck unloading is one of the most physically difficult and unpleasant jobs. And that’s where Stretch comes into play,” Perry said. Stretch has a small base that permits it to move around small spaces in warehouses without having to design them again. The robot also has an arm with highly developed cameras that can identify and deal with boxes of many shapes and sizes. Perry said Stretch can pick up boxes that weigh about 23 kilograms. He adds that the robot can move about 800 boxes in one hour. Experts say the warehousing industry experienced strong growth in 2020. That growth is expected to continue this year. They say online buying during the COVID-19 health crisis drove the need for a huge expansion in delivery services. Boston Dynamics has not made the public know a price for Stretch. But the company said the system can be set up in present buildings. 1 . What can we know about Stretch? A??.?? It can carry out different tasks. B??.?? It is good at lifting heavy objects. C??.??
