Abstract: Systems and methods for proximity device to device user interface management are disclosed. The systems and methods include a primary user device displaying variable data to a user assigned one or more tasks to be performed. In response to determining that the primary user device is within a predetermined range of an assistive device, the systems and methods pair the two devices, identify task data and/or other data, and modify a user interface displayed on the assistive device, where the modification occurs from device to device communication of displayed variable data and results in variable data from the primary user device being displayed on the assistive device.

Abstract: An example method of coordinating a mobile robot with a worker to access a task location of a task includes: obtaining the task location of the task for the mobile robot; defining a restricted region about the task location, the restricted region defining a region in which the mobile robot is restricted from stopping; identifying a worker access zone of the restricted region, the worker access zone for the worker to enter the restricted region to access the task location; determining a stop pose for the mobile robot, wherein the stop pose includes a stop position outside the restricted region and selected to avoid obstructing the worker access zone; and directing the mobile robot to the stop pose for completion of the task.

Abstract: A method includes: detecting a transporter allocation trigger associated with a mobile computing device disposed in a facility; in response to detecting the transporter allocation trigger, selecting a transporter identifier of an autonomous transporter disposed in the facility; selecting a joint notification parameter; causing the mobile computing device to generate a notification according to the joint notification parameter; and transmitting the joint notification parameter to the autonomous transporter, to cause the autonomous transporter to generate a visual notification corresponding to the notification.
