A look into an automated warehouse

I have been working in high-end retail automation for many years, architecting the most fantastic portable touch screen gadgets, RFID solutions and really Really big and profitable e-commerce websites. After a while you start to think that you have become really important because your products are generating so much press coverage (With Claudia Schiffer in Time.com, ComputerWeeklylink, link, link...etc.).
 
Then you come across a web page like this one that shows you the inside of a fully automated warehouse and you quickly realise that the part of a retail organisation that is not customer facing is at least as important, if not more so, than the customer facing side.
 
Interesting, thanks for the excellent article Anand.
