Abstract: Systems, method, and computer-readable storage media for controlling item retrieval processes from an item and storage infrastructure are disclosed. The disclosed techniques utilize an automated guided vehicle (AGV) and real-time feedback to validate the item retrieval process is performed correctly. Item retrieval may be performed autonomously by an AGV equipped with item retrieval components, such as hydraulic arms, pistons, and other components and control logic, or may be performed as a user-aided process, where feedback is provided to the user to instruct the user which item is to be retrieved and the user then loads the item onto the AGV. The AGV is configured to utilize a coordinate system to facilitate automated navigation along a series of determined waypoints during the item retrieval process. Additionally, feedback or instructions may be provided to a user device (e.g., for user-aided processes) to assist with the item retrieval process.
