Re: 3 tote auto probability poll

Any strong robot whose primary function is to pick up and stack totes should be able to stack the three autonomous totes: Consider: you have three totes placed precisely and predictably. You can place your robot in an ideal location and you can arrange with your alliance partners to go whereever. If you can quickly pick-up and stack totes, this task should be something the programmers can handle.... The real question is, besides stacking the three totes, what *else* can you do?

No, we don't have a robot yet. We are building a base and just got a prototyping group assigned this evening for our second manipulator. Our first manipulator has been in the prototyping phase for a couple of days, but the design not yet complete. However, picking up totes and stacking them very quckly with a bin on top is our focus. Once we have built the devices and having them working, we'll work on the autonomous programming......
