### What changes On March 18, 2025, Californian startup Dexterity launched Mech, a robot it calls an industrial "superhumanoid": two arms on a mobile base, with no legs or face, designed for the toughest physical tasks in logistics. Its first application is autonomous truck loading, hard to automate because every trailer and every wall of boxes is different. ### Specifications - Payload: up to 130 lb with both arms (about 65 lb per arm). - Places boxes up to 8 feet high. - Mobile base with four independently steered wheels; operates from 32 to 122 °F. - Up to 16 onboard cameras and hundreds of AI models for stacking and arm coordination. - One operator can supervise up to ten robots. - Dexterity had just raised $95 million at a $1.65 billion valuation. ### Why it matters Mech illustrates an alternative to humanoids: keep the versatility of two arms and vision, on a simpler and more stable wheeled platform. Logistics companies FedEx and UPS are among the users of Dexterity technology. ### Key takeaways A robot built for one hard job, truck loading, with additional application software announced throughout 2025.
