An object processing system is disclosed that includes an object induction station at which objects are provided for processing. The object induction station includes at least one perception unit for providing perception data regarding an object, and an object processing system for receiving objects from the object induction station, and for urging an object into a first end of one of a plurality of chute location, each of which including a first end that is accessible by the carrier and a second end that is accessible by a mobile destination container of a plurality of mobile destination containers.

Robotic put wall systems and methods with mobile destination location assemblies

A load control system for controlling the amount of power delivered from an AC power source to a plurality of electrical load includes a plurality of independent units responsive to a broadcast controller. Each independent unit includes at least one commander and at least one energy controller for controlling at least one of the electrical loads in response to a control signal received from the commander. The independent units are configured and operate independent of each other. The broadcast controller transmits wireless signals to the energy controllers of the independent units. The energy controllers do not respond to control signals received from the commanders of other independent units, but the energy controllers of both independent units respond to the wireless signals transmitted by broadcast controller. The energy controller may operate in different operating modes in response to the wireless signals transmitted by the broadcast controller.

A storage, retrieval and processing system is disclosed for processing objects. The storage, retrieval and processing system includes a plurality of bins including objects to be distributed, the plurality of bins being provided on a conveyance system, a programmable motion device that includes an end effector for grasping and moving any of the objects, the programmable motion device being capable of reaching any of the objects within at least one of the plurality of bins in an input area of the conveyance system, a perception system for providing perception data regarding a selected object that is presented to the perception system by the programmable motion device, and a routing conveyance system including a track-mounted shuttle for receiving the selected object, and for moving the selected object in each of horizontal and vertical directions toward a destination container responsive to the perception data.

Systems and methods for providing order fulfillment using a recirculating routing system

An order fulfillment system is disclosed in which objects to be collected into orders are provided in output totes. The system includes a primary sortation system that includes a loop conveyance system that moves objects around a closed loop that includes a plurality of primary sortation exits, each of which leads to a location inside the closed loop, and a secondary sortation system that includes a plurality of secondary conveyances, each of which receives an object at one of the plurality of primary sortation exits, and conveys the object to one of a plurality of totes, the plurality of totes being within the closed loop of the primary sortation system.

Systems and methods for sorting objects to large numbers of orders

A storage, retrieval and processing system for processing objects is disclosed that includes a plurality of bins including objects to be distributed by the storage, retrieval and processing system, the plurality of bins being provided on an input conveyance system, a programmable motion device that includes an end effector for grasping and moving any of the objects, a perception system for providing perception data regarding a selected object that is presented to the perception system by the programmable motion device, and a routing conveyance system for receiving the selected object, and for moving the selected object in each of horizontal and vertical directions toward a destination container responsive to the perception data, the destination container being provided among a plurality of destination containers in a row that are provided as a set on a destination conveyance system.

A multiple location load control system comprises a main device and remote devices, which do not require neutral connections, but allow for visual and audible feedback at the main device and the remote devices. The main device and the remote devices are adapted to be coupled in series electrical connection between an AC power source and an electrical load, and to be further coupled together via an accessory wiring. The remote devices can be wired on the line side and the load side of the load control system, such that the main device is wired 'in the middle' of the load control system. The main device is operable to enable a charging path to allow the remote devices to charge power supplies through the accessory wiring during a first time period of a half-cycle of the AC power source. The main device and the remote devices are operable to communicate with each other via the accessory wiring during a second time period of the half-cycle.
