Abstract: Autonomous robot guidance systems and related methods are disclosed. An example autonomous robot includes processor circuitry to detect a first fiducial based on image data collected while the robot is in a first drive mode, the first drive mode corresponding to an autonomous drive mode; cause the robot to switch from the first drive mode to a second drive mode responsive to the detection of the first fiducial, the robot to move in the second drive mode in a direction corresponding to a position of the first fiducial relative to the robot; generate navigation data for the robot, the navigation data indicative of a position of the robot in an environment; and cause the robot to switch from the second drive mode to the first drive, the robot to travel in the first drive mode based on the navigation data after the switch from the second drive mode.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods to improve performance efficiency of autonomous robots are disclosed. An example apparatus includes processor circuitry to identify a first and a second task; detect a first condition associated with a first location, the first condition to affect a first task performance condition associated with performance of the first task by an autonomous vehicle, the first condition including congestion at the first location; detect a second condition associated with a second location, the second condition to affect a second task performance condition associated with performance of the second task by the autonomous vehicle; select one of the first or the second task to be performed based on the first and the second condition; and cause the autonomous vehicle to travel to the first or the second location to perform the selected one of the first or the second task.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for autonomous vehicle operation. A computing system can include a communication device configured to receive a plurality of event signals from at least a first autonomous vehicle that is traversing a path, and a processor in electrical communication with the communication device and configured to determine whether the event signals are indicative of an obstacle in a portion of the path. The communication device can be configured to receive, from at least a second autonomous vehicle, at least one characteristic of the obstacle captured by at least one sensor of the second autonomous vehicle, and transmit, to at least a third autonomous vehicle, at least one task to clear the obstacle from the portion of the path. The processor can be configured to determine, based on the characteristic of the obstacle, the at least one task to be transmitted by the communication device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically reprioritizing pick jobs in a fulfillment center are described herein. The example systems can be configured to periodically classify pick jobs in order to optimize throughput of the fulfillment center. The classifying can include determining an estimated completion time for pick jobs and identifying at-risk jobs that may complete after their associated due dates. The at-risk jobs can be assigned to autonomous vehicles based primarily on their associated due dates. Other pick jobs that are not at-risk can be assigned to autonomous vehicles based primarily on efficiency. The at-risk pick jobs can be assigned to autonomous vehicles before the other pick jobs.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing kit orders in a fulfillment center are described herein. The example systems can be configured to receive a determination that a kit pick job is needed to pre-assemble a kit, wherein the kit comprises a first item and a second item. The determination can be based on a number of orders for the kit, a kit pre-assembly time, and a kit on-demand assembly time. The determination also can be based on historical order data for the kit and a predicted number of orders for the kit. The kit pick job is created, wherein the kit pick job is associated with at least one of a plurality of the first item and a plurality of the second item, and the kit pick job is transmitted to an autonomous vehicle for completion.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for autonomous vehicle operation, in which a processor is configured to receive sensor data collected by a first sensor of a first autonomous vehicle during navigation of the first autonomous vehicle through a particular location and prior to a control signal subsequently generated by a controller of the first autonomous vehicle; determine based on the sensor data an event that triggered the control signal. A communication device coupled to the processor is configured to transmit to a second autonomous vehicle an instruction, based on the determined event, to adjust sensor data collected by a second sensor of the second autonomous vehicle during navigation of the second autonomous vehicle in the particular location.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are computing systems and computer-implemented methods for autonomous vehicle operation. The computing system can include a processor configured to determine a transformation function based on a current position of at least one sensor of a first autonomous vehicle relative to a body of the first autonomous vehicle such that, when the transformation function is applied to images captured by the sensor, the images are adjusted to correspond to an intended position of the sensor relative to the body of the first autonomous vehicle.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for making autonomous vehicle handover decisions are described. A handover decision involves deciding if an autonomous vehicle should be handed off from one worker to another worker. The methods allow for decisions to be made in real or near real time shortly before an autonomous vehicle changes location. Worker time, if a handover is not implemented, is considered including the amount of worker time involved with the worker moving with the autonomous vehicle to the new location as compared to a new worker meeting the autonomous vehicle at the new location or on the way to the new location. Handover decisions can consider worker distribution and/or order priority. Such factors can be used to weight one or more time based cost values with a cost value representation of the cost if a handover is not implemented vs implementing a handover being compared to make the handover decision.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for automated analysis of a load of a robotic vehicle. In one embodiment, a method (e.g., a computer-implemented method) includes lifting a load via a lifting mechanism of a robotic vehicle and applying a first pulse of force to the load. The method further includes obtaining, from one or more sensors, first sensor data related to movement of the load responsive to the first pulse of force applied to the load and determining one or more parameters related to the load based on the first sensor data. The method further includes performing one or more actions based on the one or more parameters related to the load. In this manner, the load is analyzed in an automated manner and appropriate action(s) (e.g., not moving the load because it is unstable, restricting acceleration/deceleration of the robotic vehicle while moving the load, etc.) can be taken.
