Voodoo Robotics is making headlines by leveraging technology to provide low-cost order fulfillment solutions, including wireless Pick-to-Light systems.
A leading third-party logistics provider in the United States, Kenco Logistics Services, featured Voodoo Robotics wireless Cloud Display Devices in its Ahead of the Curve published by Chain magazine.
“Kenco deployed the Voodoo Robotics system to increase efficiency and help with bottleneck issues during peak season.”
They used the cloud display devices in put wall with high-volume SKUs, indicating the tote to pick from on the put wall with a light and text and providing instructions to the packer to remove the tote and pack the product into a shipping container. The solution is hybrid, combining handpicked and packed containers and totes that Locus Robots deliver onto the conveyor line.
“With Voodoo Robotics’ flexible design, and intuitive interface, Kenco customers achieve more picking in less time, and with fewer errors.”

However, the technology has evolved in multiple ways to become easier to deploy for different workflows. Trends include wireless display modules, lights that illuminate an entire compartment and mobile carts with lights.
