reescrito 180 añadidas, 56 eliminadas
Amazon introduced Blue Jay ~~on 22~~in October 2025 as a system coordinating several robotic arms in one workspace, ~~doing~~combining the work of three separate robotic stations for picking, stowing and ~~consolidating. [S] It~~consolidating; it was being tested ~~in production~~ at a ~~facility in~~ South ~~Carolina,~~ Carolina facility, where it could handle ~~roughly~~about 75% of ~~all~~ the item types stored there. Amazon ~~stores. [S]~~ said it went from concept to production in just over a year, against three or more years for earlier systems, and Amazon Robotics' chief technologist Tye Brady said the real headline was not about robots. On 25 February 2026 Amazon added ~~a note~~an update to that announcement saying it is no longer…operations, and that the technology behind it will ~~continue to support~~keep supporting employees across the network. ~~[S] Reporting on the decision attributes it to~~ The halt was first reported by Business Insider in mid-February; TechCrunch quoted spokesperson Terrence Clark saying Blue Jay was launched as a prototype, which the ~~robot being expensive~~ original press release had not made clear, and ~~difficult~~ that Amazon was accelerating use of the underlying technology in other manipulation programs, with staff moved to ~~manufacture, awkward~~ other projects. Reasons were not given by Amazon in those reports; BGR, citing others, put it down to high cost and hard manufacturing, poor fit ~~into~~with existing warehouse ~~workflows,~~workflows and ~~out of step~~ a change in Amazon's warehouse strategy, with a ~~shift towards smaller, more flexible facilities. [1]~~ reconfigurable system called Orbital reportedly coming later, around 2027. Context: Amazon has run its robotics program since buying Kiva Systems in 2012 and passed one million warehouse robots in July 2025; its Vulcan two-armed robot, also unveiled in 2025, continues. Project Eluna, the agentic AI system announced alongside Blue Jay ~~and piloted at~~ for a Tennessee pilot, is a ~~Tennessee fulfilment centre, was not withdrawn. [S]~~separate effort that the update note does not mention.
