Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/208658
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A system and method for sorting delivery items in a plurality of bins using a robotic system 203 are provided. The robotic system 203 includes (i) a barcode scanner 206 that scans a barcode of a delivery item that is received from a feeding unit 202, (ii) a control unit 204 that (a) determines a destination bin 208 on which the delivery item to be sorted by processing the scanned barcode and (b) determines a destination path for the robotic system 203 to reach the destination bin 208, (iii) an obstacle detection sensor 210 and a small obstacle detection sensor 212 that detect if any obstacle in the destination path, an inbuilt lifting unit 216 that place the delivery item in the destination bin 208 and a floor barcode unit 218 that localizes the robotic system in the floor for sorting the delivery item on the destination bin.
