Abstract
A parsing system includes an imaging device and one or more processors. The imaging device may capture visual instructions displayed on a monitor. The one or more processors may be configured to receive, from the imaging device, the captured visual instructions, generate functions for a robot to perform based on the captured visual instructions, and transmit, to a robot, the functions to perform.
Claims20
A parsing system, comprising:
- an imaging device configured to capture visual instructions provided by a warehouse or fulfillment center system and displayed on a monitor, the warehouse or fulfillment center system being distinct from the parsing system;
- and
- one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors are configured to:
- receive, from the imaging device, captured visual instructions;
- process the received visual instructions to determine task instructions included in the received visual instructions;
- and
- generate functions for a robot to perform based on the determined task instructions, the functions configured to cause the robot to perform the determined task instructions.
4 more elements
A system, comprising:
- a robot having a picking arm configured to grasp an item from a first location and place the grasped item in a second location spaced from the first location;
- an imaging device to capture visual instructions provided by a warehouse or fulfillment center system and displayed on a monitor, the warehouse or fulfillment center system being distinct from the parsing system;
- and
- one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors are configured to:
- receive, from the imaging device, captured visual instructions;
- and
- generate functions for the robot to perform based on the captured visual instructions.
4 more elements
A method comprising:
- receiving, by one or more processors, an image including visual instructions displayed on a monitor and provided by a warehouse or fulfillment center system;
- determining, by the one or more processors, task instructions included in the visual instructions;
- and
- generating, by the one or more processors, task functions for a robot, the task functions configured to cause the robot to perform the determined task instructions.
