Abstract: In an infrastructure that uses a mobile order fulfillment system, robotic drive units may be dispatched and instructed to bring inventory holders to a workstation where at least one of the inventory holders is packed and prepared for shipment. The robotic drive units are then instructed to move the prepared inventory holder to a transport vehicle such as a truck. Fiducial marks may be removably placed within the transport vehicle to aid navigation of the robotic drive units. At a destination facility, additional robotic drive units may be instructed to move the inventory holders from the truck and place the inventory holders at appropriate storage locations.

Abstract: An inventory system can receive a receipt receptacle from a shipping vehicle. The receipt receptacle can be moved to a case shuttle without separating or sorting inventory items in the receipt receptacle. A mobile drive unit can move the case shuttle to a receiving station, where the receipt receptacle can be removed and where the inventory items can be stowed in a pickable inventory holder. A mobile drive unit can move the pickable inventory holder to an order-compiling station, where inventory items can be picked from the inventory holder into order receptacles. A mobile drive unit can move an order shuttle carrying order receptacles with completed orders to a shipping station, where the completed order receptacles can be transferred to a shipping vehicle.
Abstract translation: 库存系统可以从运输车辆接收收据容器。 接收容器可以移动到外壳穿梭而不分开或分类收据容器中的库存物品。 移动驱动单元可以将外壳梭子移动到接收站，在该接收站处可以移除接收容器，并且可将库存物品存放在可拣选的库存持有者中。 移动驱动单元可以将可挑选的库存持有人移动到订单编制工位，其中库存物品可以从库存持有人中挑选到订单容器中。 移动式驱动单元可以将装有订单的订单接收器的订单运送到运送站，运送站可将完成的订单插座转移到运输车辆。

Abstract: A system includes a first mobile drive unit and a second mobile drive unit. The system also includes a first inventory holder, a second inventory holder, and a third inventory holder. An inventory station includes a first location and a second location and the inventory station operable to receive a first inventory item from the first inventory holder at the first location. The first inventory holder is transported by the first mobile drive unit. The inventory station is also operable to receive a second inventory item from the second inventory holder at the first location. The second inventory holder is transported by the second mobile drive unit. The inventory station is also operable to receive a third inventory item from the third inventory holder at the second location. The third inventory holder is fixed at the second location while the inventory station receives the first inventory item and the second inventory item.
Abstract translation: 系统包括第一移动驱动单元和第二移动驱动单元。 该系统还包括第一库存持有人，第二库存持有人和第三库存持有人。 库存站包括第一位置和第二位置，并且库存站可操作以从第一位置处的第一库存持有者接收第一库存物品。 第一个库存持有人由第一个移动驱动单元运输。 库存站还可操作以从第一位置处的第二库存持有者接收第二库存物品。 第二库存持有者由第二移动驱动单元运输。 库存站还可操作以从第二位置处的第三库存持有者接收第三库存项目。 在库存站收到第一个库存项目和第二个库存项目时，第三个库存持有人被固定在第二个位置。

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a human transport device and associated system to transport a user within an active workspace. The human transport device may include a platform to support a user, an enclosure coupled to the platform to surround the user, a drive subsystem to power the human transport device, and a control unit to control the movement of the human transport device in coordination with active mobile drive units moving within the workspace. A system implementing one or more human transport devices may include a management module to direct the movement of the one or more human transport devices and designate one or more areas within the workspace as protected areas. Unauthorized objects may be prohibited from entering the protected areas while the human transport device may be allowed within the protected areas.

Abstract: Some examples include using an inventory tracking device to track the addition of inventory items to an inventory holder of an inventory system or removal of inventory items from the inventory holder. The inventory holder may include one or more trays to store one or more inventory items, with each tray including one or more bins that may be defined by dividers on the tray. The inventory tracking device may use inventory holder configuration data that identifies locations of the bins to determine that the inventory item was added to or removed from a particular bin of the inventory holder.
Abstract translation: 一些示例包括使用库存跟踪设备跟踪向库存系统的库存持有人添加库存料品或从库存持有者中清除库存料品。 库存持有者可以包括用于存储一个或多个库存物品的一个或多个托盘，每个托盘包括一个或多个可由托盘上的分隔件限定的仓。 库存跟踪装置可以使用库存持有者配置数据来识别料仓的位置，以确定库存料品被添加到库存持有者的特定料仓中或从其中移除。
