RLWRLD, CJ Logistics expand partnership to build smarter warehouse robots

RLWRLD, a tech firm, and CJ Logistics, a supply chain giant, have partnered to develop advanced warehouse robots that can manage the complexities of modern logistics. The companies signed a memorandum of understanding on Monday to collaborate on Robotics Foundation Model (RFM) technology, with plans to commercialize their creation from Korean operations to global markets.

RLWRLD and CJ Logistics will first select logistics processes for initial RFM deployment and carry out proof-of-concept tests to confirm the robots' core movements in real working environments. They aim to broaden the applications and refine technical performance based on these tests, ultimately seeking to commercialize Logistics as a Service (LaaS).

CJ Logistics has been incorporating physical AI, such as AI humanoid robots, into logistics operations, deploying them in actual workflows, according to RLWRLD. Logistics facilities are particularly challenging environments for robots, making this partnership a significant step forward in the field.
