No assignee for this patent application has been made.News editors obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“Currently, warehouse and retail facilities follow a standard process for put-away and picking of goods.Items arrive at the facility to a receiving area, typically in cases or pallets, and are registered into aWarehouse Management System (WMS). The WMS is a software database that stores information aboutthe items, such as size, weight, inventory count, storage location, etc. After the items are received into thewarehouse or retail facility, they are put-away into their storage locations, generally open shelving or racks.When an order for items is received and registered with the WMS, a work order is created, commonlyknown as a pick list. The pick list instructs the human worker, or “picker,” about the items to be retrieved,i.e., identities, quantities, and locations within the facility. The picker then finds the items and physicallytransfers them to a shipping container associated with the order.
