Robotic system with coordination mechanism and methods of operating the same

A robotic system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory device connected to the at least one processor and having stored thereon instructions executable by the processor for
• identifying a set of two or more available operations, each operation including a unique sequence of two or more tasks that include at least a group manipulation task and/or a racking task arranged adjacent to each other and/or adjacent to a unique task in comparison to other operations in the set;
• obtaining a target condition representative of an end state of completing an operation selected from the set of two or more available operations;
• based on the target condition, identifying a sequence of tasks from the set of two or more available operations;
• obtaining an access sequence based on the identified sequence of tasks, wherein the access sequence represents an order for placing target storage containers at a first source location of a first task station;
• and
• implementing the identified sequence of tasks according to the unique sequence for (1) accessing a task target from one of the target storage containers at the first source location and transferring the task target to a destination location at the first task station and (2) accessing the task target from the second source location and for manipulating the task target in completing the operation.

A tangible, non-transitory computer readable medium having processor instructions stored thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform a method, the method comprising:

• identifying a set of two or more available operations, each operation including a unique sequence of two or more tasks that include at least a group manipulation task and/or a racking task arranged adjacent to each other and/or adjacent to a unique task in comparison to other operations in the set;
• obtaining a target condition representative of an end state of completing an operation selected from the set of two or more available operations;
• based on the target condition, identifying a sequence of tasks from the set of two or more available operations;
• obtaining an access sequence based on the identified sequence of tasks, wherein the access sequence represents an order for placing target storage containers at a first source location of a first task station;
• and
• implementing the identified sequence of tasks according to the unique sequence for (1) accessing a task target from one of the target storage containers at the first source location and transferring the task target to a destination location at the first task station and (2) accessing the task target from the second source location and for manipulating the task target in completing the operation.
