Abstract: An autonomous cart moves products and materials in an industrial environment. It is different from conventional carts because it can navigate autonomously indoors or outdoors in dynamic environments where things change frequently. This autonomous cart uses state-of-the-art "dense" visual perception giving it unequalled and continuous awareness of its surroundings. With this it can operate at a cost, speed, level of safety and efficiency that has never been possible before. This robotic cart makes factories and warehouses more efficient and safer. It enables the movement of smaller batches of material more frequently, reduces the need for expensive conveyor systems, and helps eliminate dangerous and polluting fork trucks from indoor environments.

自动购物车在工业环境中移动产品和材料。 它不同于传统的手推车，因为它可以在室内或户外在动态变化的动态环境中自主导航。 这种自动购物车使用最先进的“密集” 视觉感受赋予它无与伦比的持续的环境意识。 有了它，它就可以以前所未有的成本，速度，安全和效率水平运行。 这款机器人手推车使工厂和仓库更加高效和安全。 它可以更频繁地移动较小批次的材料，减少对昂贵的输送系统的需求，并有助于消除室内环境中危险和污染的叉车。
