Not all, but enough to make this a viable product. There are a lot of high volume, low-sku warehouses where each product is light enough for Stretch's arm. As with any robotics project, there are a lot of ways that this might fail, but

The first definition I see for attraction is "pleasing to the senses" and the second is "sexually alluring." If OP meant something more than physical, then "attraction" was a misleading word choice. Even with y
