<p>A group of researchers from Singapore have created an autonomous robot that can be used to cut down on the admin work librarians have to do.</p>
<p>A shelf-scanning robot called AuRoSS has been created that can navigate the aisles of a library each night, using lasers to scan each shelf and compile a report on missing or misplaced books.</p>
<p>This report is then ready for human library staff to read in the morning, telling them exactly where needs organising, reducing the time-consumption significantly.</p>
<p>The bot uses more lasers and ultra-sound to navigate its way between the shelves, and has already been trialled in several libraries in Singapore, where according to the A*STAR Institute for Infocomm Research – the team behind AuRoSS – the robot has achieved an accuracy rating of up to 99%.</p>
<p>They added that the technology could easily be adapted to work in warehouses or retail stores, saving man hours for staff.</p>
