The CRAZY origin story of retail robots! 🤖
In 2015, Marty Reeser's friend in Philadelphia was using robotics to help blind people navigate inside houses. Marty had a lightbulb moment: "Couldn't we do that in a STORE?"
He brought the idea to Whole Foods, discovered what Schnucks was doing with Dave Steck, then asked Simbe for a demo... "I was blown away by what they had!" Sometimes the best innovations come from unexpected connections. From helping the blind navigate homes → revolutionizing grocery store operations!
