The assignee for this patent, patent number 11938518, is AMP Robotics Corporatio n (Louisville,Colorado, United States).Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“Within many industrial facilities, objects are transported on conveyor belts from one location to another.Often, a conveyor belt will carry an unsorted mixture of various objects and materials. Within recyclingand waste management facilities, for example, some of the conveyed objects may be conside red desirable(e.g., valuable) materials while others may be considered undesira ble contaminants. For example, therandom and unsorted contents of a collection truck may be unloaded at the facility onto a conveyor belt.Although sorting per sonnel may be stationed to manually sort materials as it is transported on the b elt,the use of sorting personnel is limiting because they can vary in their spe ed, accuracy, and efficiency andcan suffer from fatigue over the period of a sh ift. Human sorters also require specific working conditions,compensation, and b elt speeds. Production time is lost to training the many new employees that ente ras sorters, and operation costs increase as injuries and accidents occur.”
