Abstract: In an infrastructure that uses a mobile order fulfillment system, robotic drive units may be dispatched and instructed to bring inventory holders to a workstation where at least one of the inventory holders is packed and prepared for shipment. The robotic drive units are then instructed to move the prepared inventory holder to a transport vehicle such as a truck. Fiducial marks may be removably placed within the transport vehicle to aid navigation of the robotic drive units. At a destination facility, additional robotic drive units may be instructed to move the inventory holders from the truck and place the inventory holders at appropriate storage locations.

Abstract translation: 在使用移动订单履行系统的基础设施中，机器人驱动单元可能会被派发并被指示将库存持有人带到至少有一个库存持有人打包并准备出货的工作站。 然后指示机器人驱动单元将准备的库存持有人移动到诸如卡车的运输车辆。 基准标记可以可移除地放置在运输车辆内以辅助机器人驱动单元的导航。 在目的地设施，可以指示额外的机器人驱动单元从货车移动库存持有人，并将库存持有者放置在适当的存储位置。

Abstract: Collapsible fabric pods may include a plurality of posts attached to a base and a fabric bin array attached to the plurality of posts, wherein the plurality of posts are displaceable between an upright position and collapsed position. When the plurality of posts are in the upright position, the plurality of posts support the fabric bin array above the base, and when the plurality of posts are in the collapsed position, the plurality of posts are decoupled or displaced and the fabric bin array is in a compressed position on top of the base.
