Cornell University unveils SORT shelves, a robotic wall-climbing system designed to keep you organized without having to install anything. SORT (Self-Organizing Robot Team) utilizes magnetic wheels to stick to walls and there’s no information on how exactly they work, although we do see them moving around freely on flat surfaces.
SORT shows the possibilities of assistive technologies and how they can leverage our everyday physical environments to perform functional tasks towards improving users’ overall wellness. This system is part of an emerging trend, advanced by Cornell’s Architectural Robotics Lab, of research in tangible and embedded interaction within homes, workplaces, classrooms, and healthcare facilities.

A messy environment can be especially challenging for people with various forms of impairment, including older adults with mild cognitive impairment, patients recovering at home needing medication management, high-functioning individuals on the autism spectrum, and people of all ages that have mobility challenges due to an accident or otherwise,” said the researchers.
