Abstract: A method for performing tasks on items located in a space using a robot, includes receiving an order to perform a task on at least one item and obtaining a pose associated with the at least one item. The pose is in a coordinate system defined by the space and the pose is where the task is to be performed on the at least one item. The method includes navigating the robot toward the pose associated with the at least one item and detecting, when in proximity to the pose, if the pose is obstructed by an object. If the pose is obstructed by an object, halting the robot at a location spaced from the pose and then causing the robot to provide a first signal indicating that the robot is in a holding mode at the location spaced from the pose.

Abstract: A method and system for data retrieval in an enterprise portal application. The method and system include receiving, in a data access layer, a request for object data from a business logic layer. The method and system further includes validating, by a schema layer in communication with the data access layer, that cache data of a cache and data of one or more databases of the enterprise portal application are synchronized. The cache data may include table data and index data of the one or more databases of the enterprise portal application. The method and system further include retrieving, if the cache is validated, table data from the cache, and returning the object data to the business logic layer, the object data corresponding to the retrieved table data.

Abstract: An electrical charging system for charging an autonomous robot powered by a re-chargeable battery and having a first charging member. The charging station includes a second charging member configured to receive the first charging member on the autonomous robot when the autonomous robot is docked with the charging station for charging the re-chargeable battery. There is a power supply configured to charge the re-chargeable battery of the robot and a sensor configured to measure an amount of charge transferred from the power supply to the robot. There is a processor configured to determine from the amount of charge transferred from the power supply to the robot measured by the sensor, a state of charge (SOC) of the autonomous robot. There is also a communications device configured to transmit to the robot the SOC of the robot while docked at the charging station.

Abstract: A method for navigating a robot from a current pose to a goal pose. A map represents obstacles and free space within an area for robot navigation. A matching map pyramid and an exclusion map pyramid are constructed based on the map and decimations from a highest resolution to successively lower resolutions of the map pyramids. Current pose for navigating from a current location to a goal pose along a goal path includes determining a search area and creating a search heap. Scoring of search tasks on the search heap determines a best candidate pose at a highest resolution matching map, or expands the search heap with search tasks at the next higher resolution matching map. Expanding the search heap at the next higher resolution matching map avoids search tasks that would localize the robot in an exclusion zone.

Abstract: A method, system, and wheeled base for navigating a robot for docking with a charger docking station. The robot receives an initial pose associated with a robot charger docking station and a mating pose associated with the robot charger docking station. The robot first navigates from a location to an initial pose using scan matching to a first map. The robot performs a second navigation from the initial pose to the mating pose using scan matching to a second map, thereby causing an electrical charging port of the robot to mate with an electrical charging assembly of the robot charger docking station. Localization during charger docking may use a higher resolution map than when navigating to the docking station. Localizing against the robot charger docking station may be performed on a higher resolution map of the docking station alone.

Abstract: Robot charging dock includes a charge connector configured to mate with a charging port of a mobile robot. There is a charge connector frame having a front surface on which the charge connector is mounted. The front surface has a first side edge and a second side edge. There is a front cover disposed over the charge connector frame which has an aperture through which the charge connector protrudes. At least a portion of the front cover is spaced from the front surface of the charge connector frame, defining an internal region. There is an opening to the internal region formed along at least a portion of a perimeter of the aperture and there is a light source disposed in the internal region. The light source is directed toward the opening to allow the light source to illuminate charge connector.

Abstract: Processes are provided for dynamically sorting and storing items in a warehouse without the need for presorting items and without delaying or negatively impacting the efficiency of operators in the warehouse. Items are individually scanned and placed in totes of a tote-array provided on a mobile robot. An optimized route is calculated based on the items in the tote-array, and the robot navigates to a first location on the route. When the item has been put away, a replacement item is placed in the just-emptied tote of the tote-array, and an updated route is calculated. A robot capable of navigating to predefined locations for storing items is a warehouse is provided.
