Marty

Meet Marty, the new robot at our grocery store. He scoots around all over the store, looking for things out of place and spills. Sometimes he will see you coming, and greet you at the door. He can turn on a dime. All of this tires him out, so he goes to bed at 9 P.M. Thoughts?





This is the sign he carries.

The woman just ahead of you at the supermarket checkout has all the delectable groceries you didn't even know they carried.

I won't mind having a robot like Marty in our stores. And it has a cute face too.

How cool. Not only is he keeping an eye out for hazards but I bet the customers enjoy seeing him

I, for one, welcome our new robotic overlords.

not only have I never seen one, but never even heard of one until now.. wow... I would like to meet Marty and of course take photos . I wonder how well he works... I wonder if he has a sibling that could keep house for me. if so I want one.. preferably one that can dust furniture and clean glass nooks. I cleaned the nook yesterday for the first time in 6 months

Marty has a nice smile. I hope he works out well.

He is taller than I expected...a true blue guy!

Now isn't he a cutie? I would't mind having a marty around my place to help with clean ups. I'm guessing he doesn't really help.....only reports spills. Have a great day Ginny....It's already Warm here in Texas....

Lots of folks complain about the new automation that seems to be taking over... putting humans out of work. But, quite honestly, I don't think we have the human workers in our world today who WANT to work!! At least not in the numbers as we used to have. So why not robots? I think Marty is darling and is the wave of the future coming. Thank you so much, Ginny, for these pictures. I had no idea something like this was even in existence. Love, Andrea xoxo

Wow I've never seen a robot in our store! I like the design with a cute smiley face :-)

Inger said...

I think he's cute. I wonder if people worry about him taking their picture also.

Linda said...

I bet he can spot a shoplifter and report that as well!

You know I saw something like that at our store - I thought he was taking inventory. He wasn't as cute as Marty either!

I have never seen a store robot before like Marty. I would probably fall out of my shoes in shock if I turned the corner and bumped into him. I wonder if when the store is really crowded they still are able to operate? It is no doubt a great idea and we will be seeing more Marty's around. Thanks for introducing me to him.
