About Stretch

Boston Dynamics' Stretch is a mobile warehouse robot designed specifically for truck unloading and case handling. Standing 206 cm tall and weighing 1,200 kg, Stretch combines a compact wheeled base with a custom-designed arm, a high-capacity suction gripper array, and advanced perception. The robot can handle up to 23 kg per pick and operates for approximately 8 hours on a single charge. Stretch uses the Boston Dynamics Pick AI system for autonomous case detection and handling, achieving throughput rates exceeding 800 cases per hour. Deployed at DHL Supply Chain and other major logistics operators, Stretch addresses a critical labor shortage in warehouse unloading, one of the most physically demanding roles in logistics. The robot navigates autonomously within trailers and warehouse environments.
