Bay Area-based Bossa Nova Robotics this morning announced plans to bring its shelf-scanning inventory robot to 1,000 Walmart stores in the U.S. The plan adds an additional 650 locations to the growing army of retail robots, up front its current number of 350.

It’s a sizable presence for the startup, which was founded in Pittsburgh in 2005 as a robotic toy startup. The company announced an initial deal with Walmart back in 2017, starting with a modest 50 robots.
