Locus Robotics unveiled Locus Array, a mobile robot with a robotic arm and AI vision that picks, puts away and replenishes orders without human hands.
On April 13, 2026 Locus Robotics launched Locus Array, which it describes as a new class of “Physical AI” for fully autonomous fulfillment. An integrated picking arm and an AI vision system sit on an omnidirectional mobile base. A single unit handles picking, putaway, induction, slotting and replenishment on its own.
The gripper handles totes up to about 66 lbs and maneuvers within centimeters of double-deep shelving up to ten feet high. According to Locus it covers roughly 60-70% of e-commerce SKUs and cuts manual labor by as much as 90%.
Three units are already running at DHL Supply Chain’s Columbus, Ohio facility, and the product was demonstrated at MODEX in Atlanta. Locus robots have assisted in more than seven billion picks, and Array joins the same fleet under the LocusONE orchestration software.
Machine vision and autonomous mobile robots are becoming one fulfillment machine. It sits close to our own focus on Physical AI for logistics and commerce.
