Amazon claim perfect packaging machines, ask the recipient to doubt life-IT information

Amazon's warehouse robots and drones, everyone has heard about. In fact, the company's warehouse, and a not-so-known robot--CubiScan.

It is so:

Did you see it? CubiScan is a packaging machine, using Amazon's claim, that is, for any given article to determine "right size" box.

This machine developed by Quantronix, irregular objects by infrared laser sensor scan, then connect to the computer in the machine out of the box size required, automatically from Amazon's 17 in the box to select the most suitable tray.

Principle sounds reasonable, to keep good is another matter. Like this girl called Emily, Amazon packaging is just ridicule on Twitter:

"Do not to buy a feather duster? Packaged to the flooded my mom. ”

Others have said you are not a person, not one, because we also received the:

As well as this:

Boxes are probably more expensive than goods ... ...

Buy a mattress:

Buy a cell phone case:

Buy some batteries:

Removed Amazon Express must be careful, or you may not find yourself buying stuff. The Lupton Lady like this on Twitter said she had received to Amazon pushing ridicule she bought 20 times the volume of the box:

"When my brother first opened the package, I thought there is nothing, then he found a small bottle of supplements. We can't believe with so much paper, the size of the box is a full bottle of 20 times. ”

Amazon customer service replied that such packaging a bit too, and invited her feedback Center to submit comments on the site.

Lupton said the wrapping was to warm her up, and the exact size of the box can do a pet casket ... ...

Of course, not all users think Amazon this excessive packaging is not good.

"Meow my home no longer need toys, Amazon's packaging is enough to play for a year. ”

"My children don't buy toys. ”

Why Amazon would use these cartons to package it? It probably dates back to 2008 they signed a "frustration-free packaging" Protocol (Frustration-Free Packaging). The agreement was supposed to simplify packaging, user-friendly right out of the box, so as to reduce waste, but now it doesn't seem to backfire.

Honestly, this is known as "packaging for your products to create the perfect" CubiScan, the algorithm may need to learn Chinese:

亚马逊这台号称能完美打包的机器，让收件人怀疑人生 - IT资讯

亚马逊的仓库机器人和无人机，想必大家都有所耳闻。其实，这家公司的仓库里，还一种不太为外界所知的机器人——CubiScan。

它是这么用的：

看出来了吗？CubiScan其实是一个打包机器，用亚马逊的说法，就是为任何给定物品确定“正确大小的”箱子。

这种由Quantronix开发的机器，能通过红外线雷射传感器扫描不规则物体，再由连接到机器上的电脑计算出所需包装盒大小，自动从亚马逊的17种包装盒中挑选出最合适的纸盒。

道理是这么个道理，好不好用就是另一回事了。比如这个叫Emily的姑娘，就在Twitter上吐槽了亚马逊的包装：

“不就买了只羽毛掸子吗？包装多到快把我妈都淹没了。”

其他网友纷纷表示你不是一个人，绝对不是一个人，因为我们还收到过这样的：

以及这样的：

大概包装盒都比商品贵了……

买了个垫子：

买了个手机壳：

买几颗电池：

拆亚马逊的快递一定要细心，不然你可能都找不到自己买的东西。比如这Twitter上这位Lupton女士就向亚马逊官推吐槽说她收到的盒子是她买的东西体积的 20倍：

“我哥哥最初打开包装时，还以为里面啥都没有，后来他找到了一小瓶补充剂。我们简直不能相信用了这么多包装纸，盒子的大小足足是瓶子的20倍。”

亚马逊客服回复说这样的包装确实有点过了，请她在网站的反馈中心提交意见。

Lupton表示这些包装纸被她来用保暖了，而纸箱的大小正好可以做一个宠物棺材……

当然，也不是所有用户都觉得亚马逊这种过度包装不好。

“我家喵不再需要玩具了，亚马逊的这些包装就够玩一年了。”

“我家娃也不用买玩具了。”

为什么亚马逊会用这些纸盒来包装呢？这大概得追溯到2008年他们签署的一份“无挫包装”协议（Frustration-Free Packaging）。这项协议原本是为了通过简化包装，方便用户开箱，从而减少浪费，但现在看来好像起到了反作用。

讲真，这个号称“为您的产品创造完美包装”的CubiScan，可能需要学习一下中国人的算法：
