If you have spent any amount of time in China, you have likely engaged in an online shopping spree or two and experienced firsthand the speed and efficiency of the country’s delivery system.

But now, thanks to a captivating video circulating online, you can witness what’s going on behind the scenes while you are eagerly awaiting that new gadget you ordered off Taobao.

The footage profiles a Chinese delivery company that uses self-charging robots to sort through a staggering 200,000 packages per day in their warehouse.

The robots run 24 hours a day and use a code-scanning system to ensure packages are moved to the right location. These codes, according to a People’s Daily Facebook post, virtually eliminate sorting errors.
