Abstract: Features are disclosed for using location awareness, bin capacity, and environmental cues to provide in context guidance to the associate when stowing items such as at a fulfillment center. In accordance with aspects of the present disclosure, the associate may scan an item he or she may want to stow. In response, lights on the bins in the associate's vicinity are illuminated to indicate bins in which the item can be stowed (e.g., because the item fits in the bin) without breaking stow etiquette. For example, in order to prevent mix up, stow etiquette may indicate that two types of erasers should not be stored in the same bin. As yet another example, stow etiquette may indicate that an item should not be stowed in a bin, even if it fits and there is room, so that a total weight for the bin is not exceeded.

Abstract: An inventory system employs self-illuminating inventory management containers. A self-illuminating container can include a container body, an illumination element, and a signal receiver for receiving instructions to illuminate the container. The self-illuminating inventory management containers can be illuminated to assist in locating the containers in the system broadly, or locally, and to assist in inventory processing operations.

Abstract translation: 公开了使用位置感知,箱体容量和环境线索的特征,以便在诸如在履行中心处收集物品时向关联人员提供上下文指导。 根据本公开的方面,员工可以扫描他或她可能想要存放的物品。 作为响应,辅助员附近的箱子上的灯被点亮以指示物品可以被收起的箱子(例如,因为该物品装在箱子中)而不打破礼物礼物。 例如,为了防止混淆,礼物礼物可能表明两种类型的橡皮擦不应该存储在同一个盒子中。 另一个例子,礼服礼仪可能表明,一件物品不应该被存放在垃圾箱中,即使它适合并且有空间,从而不超过垃圾箱的总重量。
