That's the stupidest robot I've ever seen. It's taking boxes off one pallet and moving it onto another. Why not just have a robot is smart enough to just take the pallet-jack over to the pallet with the boxes already on it?

I'm fairly certain that that's just a demonstration. From the description, the intended purposes of the robot are:
1: To palletize things which are not palletized (eg: by taking them from a conveyor belt, from shelves, or from loose stock piled on the floor) and then stacking them on a pallet, and
2: To separate incoming pallets, and place their contents onto a conveyor belt, onto shelves, etc.
The fundamental concept of having a robot for this makes sense. Palletizing robots are already quite common in non-mobile applications:
I can see why having one that's able to free-roam would be advantageous. What I don't understand is why they've come up with such a complex design.
