Palletizing head and method for palletizing layers of individual items using a palletizing head

A palletizing head (1) and a method for palletizing layers of individual items using a palletizing head (1) are disclosed. The palletizing head (1) has a support level (2) for each layer of individual items to be picked up and transferred from a receiving station to a destination. This support level (2) can be removed from under the layer of individual items at the destination. The placement direction (A) of the layer of individual items at the destination is oriented approximately perpendicular to a loading direction (B) at the receiving station. The layer of individual items can be stabilized and positioned within the palletizing head (1) both when picked up at the receiving station and when placed at the destination, in coordination with a positioning movement of the palletizing head (1) between the receiving station and the destination. The process involves picking up individual loads at a receiving station and transferring them onto a support level (2) of the palletizing head (1). The palletizing head (1) then deposits the loads at a destination location by removing the support level (2) from beneath the loads within the palletizing head (1). The discharge direction (A) of the loads at the destination is approximately perpendicular to the loading direction (B) of the loads at the receiving station. The loads are initially positioned within and relative to the palletizing head (1). As the palletizing head (1) moves to the destination, the loads are further advanced on the support level (2) in the loading direction (B). Upon reaching the destination, the support level (2) is removed from beneath the loads to be deposited.

Coordinating actions between a robotic gripper and vision system

Exemplary embodiments relate to a machine-learning based approach to detecting individual items in a chaotic moving pick-and-place environment. In such an environment, objects may move relative to a robotic arm. As the objects move through the environment, their locations may change. A relatively more-processing-intensive procedure is employed once on an upstream side of the pick and place station in order to identify or initially segment objects in the environment. Identified items are then tracked using less intensive methods as the object moves through the environment. In order to provide rapid picks, the robot's vision system coordinates with the robot's gripper to image the target when the gripper is out of the image area. A pick location is transmitted back to the gripper within a few hundred milliseconds of the last pick.

Examples provide a system and method for dynamically filtering candidate item identifiers (IDs) from a pool of item IDs in real-time for automatic labeling of images for use as training data used to train computer vision (CV) models. Images of carts are paired with item receipts. Candidate item IDs are extracted from the receipts. Item recognition inference results generated by CV models are used to pair images of individual items with item IDs identifying the item in each item image. As each candidate item ID is assigned to an item image, the item ID is dynamically filtered. Any candidate item IDs remaining after filtering are assigned to any item images failing to pair with an item ID based on the infer results. The results are presented for review and status update via a user interface device for faster and more accurate auto-labeling of training data for CV models.

Systems and methods for a two-part recommendation system wherein a non-personalized item-to-candidate item list is generated without personalization and the items within the corresponding candidate list may be ranked in order to personalize that list to the particular user. In an embodiment, ranking occurs based on a distance function between individual items in the list and the reference item, such as a distance between the items within an embedding space that represents relevant features of items as vectors in latent space. Accordingly, ranking by a candidate ranker can select which items in the candidate list are most pertinent and personalized to the user at a present time. Because ranking can require significantly fewer resources than generating the candidate list, this two-part system can enable real-time recommendations that are personalized to the user.

Dynamic utility functions for inference in machine-learned models

In an example embodiment, a technique is presented that accesses training data that includes information about items, queries for items, and labels for the combinations of items and queries. The labels may correspond to different events, and there may be multiple different labels for the same combination of item and query. A machine learned model is then trained to learn a function for embedding each item to which a label pertains and a function for embedding each query to which a label pertains. Then, for each item in the training data, the items are embedded using the machine learned model, and the item embeddings for the item are concatenated into a single item embedding. At inference time, a similar concatenation is performed for multiple query embeddings. The concatenated embeddings are then used as input to an approximate k-nearest neighbor search function.
