The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied by the inventors: “U.S. Pat. No. 10,259,649 assigned to the assign ee of the present application describes a warehouse management system. The syste m comprises inter alia a fleet of autonomous robots used to move items around th e warehouse and a shelving system comprising vertical support posts and horizont al rails that support shelves on which the items are stored. The robots comprise a set of on-board sensors, a processor, software, and other electronics configu red to provide them with three-dimensional navigation and travel capabilities th at enable them to navigate and travel autonomously both along the floor and up and down specially designed vertical rails and along specially designed horizonta l rails that either are attached to the existing vertical support posts and hori zontal rails of a retrofitted shelving system or replace them in a new shelving system. This ability of the robots to travel in three dimensions allows them to pick items from or place items at any location on the floor or shelving system of the warehouse. In the same manner, the system could also function as an automa ted pick system by moving, picking and put-away items inside a vehicle.
