Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for a dispensing cabinet incorporating an image based counting system that includes one or more imaging devices (e.g., one or more color cameras) to capture images of one or more items (e.g., pills, capsules, pharmaceutical units, items for medical use, etc.). Control circuitry of the image based counting system is configured to determine one or more properties of the one or more items based on the images. The dispensing cabinet includes a cabinet housing comprising one or more containers to hold the one or more items, which may employ mounting hardware to releasably secure the image based counting system to the cabinet housing.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an onboard object dimensioning system for a vehicle, such as a lift truck. The vehicle may have one or more sensors (e.g., a radar system, an acoustic sensor, an image capture system, LIDAR, microwave, etc.) to generate and transmit a signal toward an object on the vehicle, which is received as a feedback signal corresponding to a reflection from one or more surfaces of the object. Control circuitry receives data from the sensors including signal characteristics of the feedback signal. The data is converted into multiple dimensions corresponding to the one or more surfaces of the object, which are employed to determine a shape, volume, orientation, or area of the one or more surfaces of the object corresponding to the first and second dimensions.
