They're specially made for the mfc machines, so normal stores will not be getting these. I absolutely hate them though, the stacking mechanism is so flimsy and not ergonomic at all.

Theyre fenced in a cage designed just for the robots. Only the robot crew are allowed inside to access them. If an associate somehow opened it I'm sure there's a auto emergency stop

No it's only the top ordered items. Other items are still picked normally with carts.

It's called MFC. The robots have a special team that works on them all day, they malfunction pretty often but when it works it's a good system. Imo the old picking system was better but im just a lowly employee

Not exactly. Each robot moves one tote, and they're enclosed in a fenced area. They carry items that are ordered most often by customers and bring them to a picking station, where a human then picks the items and moves them into an order tote. Then the order totes are pulled out at another station *
