Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“The present disclosure relates generally to storage systems and inventory retrieval methods, and moreparticularly, to a storage system and a mobile, manipulator robot for retrieving inventory items from thestorage system.“Warehouses, or distribution fulfillment centers, require systems that enable the efficient storage andretrieval of a large number of diverse products. Traditionally, inventory items are stored in containers andarranged on rows of shelving on either side of an aisle. Each container, or bin, holds a plurality of items of one or more product types. The aisles provide access between the shelving for an operator or robot tomigrate the aisles and retrieve the items. It is well understood that the aisles reduce the storage densityof the system. In other words, the amount of space actually used for the storage of products (e.g., theshelving) is relatively small compared to the amount of space required for the storage system as a whole.As warehouse space is often scarce and expensive, alternative storage systems that maximize storage spaceare desired.
