Amazon says it has begun testing human-like robot solutions at its robotics research and development site to perform repetitive tasks and work collaboratively with employees . The company has started testing Digit , a twolegged robot that can grasp and lift items , which comes as a result of its partnership with Agility Robotics . Amazon says the device will first be used to shift empty tote boxes , a ‘ highly repetitive ’ process .
