Abstract
The present application discloses a robotic stack pusher system, and a method and a computer system for controlling the robotic stack pusher system. The robotic stack pusher system includes an actuation device and a plurality of pusher structures that are substantially planar. At least one of the plurality of pusher structures is nested within one or more other pusher structures of the plurality of pusher structures. The actuation device is the actuation device is operatively coupled to at least one of the plurality of pusher structures. The actuation device is configured to actuate a position of the plurality of pusher structures between a retracted state and an extended state in response to a control signal. Actuation of the actuation device causes the one of the plurality of structures that is nested to extend telescopically with sufficient force and to controllably push a payload.
