Ford is using a 'Wall-E' lookalike self-driving robot that can avoid obstacles to ferry parts around its factory in Spain
The robot has been designed by Ford engineers and is being trialled in Europe
'Survival' can sense its environment and dodge obstacles with LiDAR technology
The robot is made of a shelf that has 17 slots for different weights and sizes
Around 40-employee hours are saved everyday on mundane tasks, Ford says
