Dexterity, a developer of robots for logistics, warehousing, and supply chain operations, has partnered with GXO Logistics, a contract logistics provider, to pilot AI-enhanced robots in warehouse operations for a beauty brand, one of GXO's customers.

The companies will use robotics combined with AI and machine learning to improve warehouse tasks such as depalletizing and repalletizing to enhance productivity and safety.

Dexterity's robots can reportedly operate with minimal initial setup, learning and improving autonomously over time, which helps streamline warehouse operations and allows staff to concentrate on more complex tasks.
