Overview

• Morrisons has become the first UK supermarket to trial 'Tally' robots, deploying them in Wetherby, Redcar, and Stockton stores.
• Developed by US-based Simbe Robotics, Tally uses AI and computer vision to autonomously scan shelves and identify stock issues with 99% accuracy.
• The robots can capture up to 30,000 products per hour and self-dock for charging when needed, ensuring continuous operation.
• Morrisons emphasizes that no jobs will be cut, with the robots freeing staff to focus on customer service and other tasks.
• Initial feedback from employees and customers has been positive, with staff finding the robots helpful and unobtrusive.
