    摘要: Embodiments provide shelves, bracket systems, automated picker robots, totes, and other features that may be used with delivery vehicle configurations that have automated cargo areas. A delivery vehicle may include a picking robot that selectively retrieves packages for delivery without requiring substantial human intervention for locating those packages. The cargo area of the delivery vehicle may further comprise a plurality of customizable shelving units that generate custom-sized shelves for packages. The shelves may include a plurality of individually movable shelf brackets having retaining members that pivot between an extended and retracted position to hold the package in place and to enable the picking robot to retrieve the package from the shelf. Another embodiment provides for a tote having a drive mechanism to hold letters so that a letter may be automatically retrieved from the cargo arear and provided at a delivery location.

    摘要: A method for an optical acquisition of physical features of an object with an optical system. The method includes aligning the optical system towards an object position so that a first and a second optical device of the optical system gain optical access to the object position, assessing the object with the first and the second optical device from a first perspective so that the first and the second optical device engage with the object along a first and a second optical axis from the first perspective, respectively, adjusting first and the second adjustable spacial filters to a defined spacial adjustment with a defined spacial adjustment parameter, deriving a distance between the optical system and the object from the defined spacial adjustment parameter so as to derive a first distance information between the optical system and the object, and acquiring at least one physical feature of the object.

    摘要: According to a first aspect of the invention there is provided a motion generator comprising an effector for applying forces, moments and movements to an effector pay load relative to a surface connected to one or more elongate rigid struts, each strut being connected at one end thereof by a first joint to the effector and being connected at its other end by a second joint to an associated rocker, the rocker comprising a rocker arm and having a pivot axis which is generally parallel with the surface, such that the movement of the rocker arm through a generally vertical are about the pivot axis leads to movement of the effector, and forces applied to an associated rocker lead to forces being applied to the effector, in which the movement of a rocker and forces applied by the rocker are controlled by an actuator, the actuator being in the form of, or comprising an elongate belt, cable, or rope drive which is connected by either end thereof to an associated rocker to apply a force to a point on the associated rocker away from the pivot axis of the rocker, the motion generator further comprising means for applying tension to the belt, cable or rope drive during movement of an associated rocker.
