By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News-According to news reporting originating from Wash ington, D.C., by NewsRx journalists, a patent application by the inventors Grind staff, Jeffrey (Collinsville, TX, US); O'brien, Ben (Omaha, NE, US); Webb, Jonat han Hogan (Allen, TX, US), filed on March 14, 2024, was made available online on September 19, 2024. No assignee for this patent application has been made. Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: "Boxes, cartons, or other types of containers are used to safe ly package products for shipping. In warehouses or fulfillments centers products are often received in one type of container, removed, and then placed in other containers for storage. The storage containers can then be placed on racks for l ater retrieval of the products. The storage containers can be part of an automat ed storage and retrieval system (ASRS). Whether a traditional storage system or an ASRS, products may have to be removed from their shipping containers and plac ed in storage containers. Opening, unpacking, and transferring the products from an enclosed container, such as a shipping container, to another container for s torage is a time consuming process. With the growth of online retail, the time r equired to unpack or decant products has become an even greater time consuming p rocess as fulfillment centers receive and store products for filling multiple sh ipping orders on a daily basis. As such, an improved way to decant products woul d be advantageous."
