ABB机器人在假期在Bloomingdale的标志性纽约旗舰店响起

• ABB机器人修剪树的下一步展示了人类机器人合作，带有假日音乐和卡拉OK的购物者
• 用ABB的Yumi制作和提供的Nespresso咖啡的购物者^®协作机器人
• ABB and robot animator andyRobot^®创建一个独特的展示，以展示零售商如何增强未来的零售体验
• 动态窗口显示使用机器人来创建更多的参与度与传统静态销售点显示器

帮助纽约庆祝节日，十二个ABB机器人正在与Bloomingdale的标志性假日庆祝活动互动^ThStreet flagship store. ABB’s robots are the main attraction in three of Bloomingdale’s twelve holiday window displays on Lexington and Third Avenues as ABB demonstrates the potential for its robotics and automation technology to revolutionize visual merchandising and make the retail experience more dynamic and whimsical. ABB and long-time creative partner andyRobot^®利用了布卢明代尔（Bloomingdale）的人类机器人互动的兴奋，通过独特的视觉体验吸引购物者，并探索如何在零售环境中应用机器人技术。

在一个窗口中，四个ABB机器人一起工作，创建一个自主的圣诞树装饰显示。两个楼层安装和两个天花板安装的IRB 120机器人协调其动作，以将20枚金色装饰品彼此传递，将它们放在树枝上，然后剥去树并再次开始30分钟的过程。

一个由四个ABB IRB 1200机器人组成的节日乐团演奏黄铜振动器，鼓动乐队，音乐会的声音和一个未来派的数字Xylophone，以招待各种圣诞节颂歌的购物者。Visitors to Bloomingdales can interact with the robot performers from the street and choose from three holiday classics: ‘Deck the Halls’, ‘Jingle Bells’ and ‘We wish you a merry Christmas’, while pressing a button on the window takes a picture of the visitors which appears on a video monitor behind the robot band inside the window display.

没有卡拉OK，这不是假日庆祝活动，所以第三个展示是Roboscreen^®圣诞颂歌卡拉OK窗口。购物者可以从各种节日歌曲中进行选择，歌词出现在三个移动的38英寸图形屏幕上，这些屏幕附在三个IRB 120机器人的手臂上。

RoboScreens, patented by robot animator andyRobot, bring highly coordinated six-axis motion to video displays. Assembling in various formations, when together RoboScreens can display one large cohesive video or image, and when apart they can display individual, synchronized images that virtually jump from screen to screen. This creates a highly engaging and dynamic viewer experience which, in this case, inspires window shoppers on the street to participate in the festive singalong.

Inside Bloomingdales, ABB’s dual-arm collaborative YuMi^®机器人展示了最新的Nespresso咖啡体验，为购物者提供咖啡的选择。

设计安全与人类工作,客户s can interact directly with YuMi to create a unique merchandising experience for Nespresso by allowing customers to see their new product in action. With its precision and mobility, YuMi automates the entire brewing process, from handling and loading the selected drink pod, to serving the hot beverage and disposing of the used capsule for recycling.

“We are excited to be part of such an iconic celebration as shoppers in New York kick off the holiday season. As well as bringing some festive cheer to Bloomingdales’ customers, we are showcasing how robotics and automation technology could help revitalize the retail experience,” said Marc Segura, ABB’s Global Head of Service Robotics. “Our demonstrations in Bloomingdales show how robotics can make visual merchandising more dynamic and engaging. In the future, retailers could use robotics to create innovative mediums to interact with customers, demonstrate products and engage at the point-of-sale with far more appeal and relevance than traditional static point-of-sale displays.”

All of the robots at Bloomingdale’s are being monitored 24 hours a day by the ABB team from their US Robotics headquarters in Auburn Hills, Michigan using ABB Ability™ Connected Services technology. This sophisticated system remotely monitors and analyzes intelligence directly from the robots, allowing ABB technicians to identify and address potential issues that could lead to an unplanned stoppage before it occurs.
