Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Amazon's fulfillment centers are equipped with the latest robots and automation, but its delivery stations still remain mostly manual. The company is now developing an internal project to build fully automated delivery stations. The technology behind Project Tetromino could come from Boxbot, a robotics startup that uses conveyors and AI-driven storage trays to automatically sequence packages for vehicle loading. Amazon has opened up a Last Mile Innovation Center in Germany to test delivery station technologies.
