About

About Locus Array

Locus Array is a mobile-manipulation system developed by Locus Robotics for autonomous in-aisle warehouse fulfilment. The robot brings an AI-guided arm directly to inventory and uses the NeuraGrasp soft compliant end effector to handle varied items, including polybags, pouches, porous goods and unpackaged products. Six active order totes support picking and consolidation, with a published 29.9 kg limit per tote and storage access up to 3 m high.

Array combines picking, transport, putaway, replenishment and automatic induction or drop-off through LocusONE. It works with standard racking and off-the-shelf totes, coordinating with Origin and Vector in mixed fleets. Locus previewed the system in 2025 and launched it commercially in April 2026 through its Robots-as-a-Service model. Integration with conveyors and downstream systems extends the workflow beyond individual picks, while the mobile architecture lets operators add capacity without installing fixed robotic picking stations.

Timeline

  • Locus Robotics acquires Nexera Robotics to expand Locus Array mobile manipulation

    2026-05-19 - Acquisition - Locus Robotics acquired Vancouver-based Nexera Robotics, adding Nexera patented NeuraGrasp end-effector technology to its mobile manipulation roadmap. NeuraGrasp combines AI-driven grasping intelligence, onboard sensory inputs, computer vision and a soft membrane structure to adapt to item shape, surface texture, material, porosity and weight. Locus said the technology will expand the range of SKU types Locus Array can pick autonomously, including porous textiles, loosely bagged items, perforated polybags, irregular packages, delicate goods and thin packaging features.
