    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a lift truck attachment system that includes a lift truck weighing device with a carriage mounted scale configured to support load handling fixtures and to be secured to a lift truck carriage. The weighing device includes one or more sensors arranged at a mounting interface between the lift truck carriage and the carriage mounted scale. The lift truck weighing device includes one or more of rails, plates, and/or mounting brackets, as a list of non-limiting examples, arranged at the interface with the one or more sensors, which measure a load from the load handling fixtures.

    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.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an area wide object dimensioning system for an object in motion, such as mounted to a vehicle (e.g., a lift truck). One or more sensors (e.g., a radar system, an acoustic sensor, an image capture system, a LIDAR system, a microwave system, etc.) are located within the area to capture data corresponding to one or more dimensions of the object as it travels through the area. Control circuitry receives the data from the sensors, which is converted into multiple dimensions corresponding to one or more surfaces of the object. Surface dimensions are employed to determine a shape, volume, orientation, or area of the surfaces of the object, and/or the object itself, based on the multiple surface dimensions.

    Abstract: Disclosed are image based counting systems and methods. Image based counting systems and methods employ one or more imaging devices (e.g., one or more color cameras) and one or more illumination devices (e.g., one or more illumination sources to provide variable and/or dynamic lighting). In some examples, the image based counting system provides illumination to a tray upon which one or more items (e.g., pills) are placed. The illuminated items are then imaged by the one or more imaging devices based on one or more imaging techniques or processes to determine and/or present information associated with one or more properties of the item.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an onboard object measurement system for a vehicle, such as a lift truck. The vehicle may have one or more sensors incorporated thereon, such as within one or more load handling fixtures. Control circuitry associated with the vehicle and/or the sensors is configured to receive data from the first sensor corresponding to changes in force in the first axis, receive data from the second sensor corresponding to changes in force in the second axis, correlate the changes in force along the first and second axes, and to determine one or more of a direction of motion, a thrust, or a position of a center of gravity associated with the load based on the correlation.
