Abstract
An item sorting system is disclosed. The system includes a control server and a first robot. The first robot communicates with the control server, and runs in a storage area of the item sorting system. The storage area is deployed with at least one item-collecting container, each of the at least one item-collecting container includes at least two sub-compartments. The control server determines a target sub-compartment from the at least two sub-compartments of the at least one item-collecting container, and sends a sorting instruction to the first robot. The first robot delivers an item to the target sub-compartment in response to the sorting instruction.

An item sorting system, comprising:
- a control server, a first robot;
- wherein the first robot communicates with the control server, and runs in a storage area of the item sorting system;
- and the storage area is deployed with at least one item-collecting container, each of the at least one item-collecting container comprises at least two sub-compartments;
- wherein the control server is configured to determine a target sub-compartment from the at least two sub-compartments of the at least one item-collecting container, and send a sorting instruction to the first robot;
- wherein the first robot is configured to deliver an item to the target sub-compartment in response to the sorting instruction.
An item sorting method, applied in an item sorting system comprising a control server and a first robot, wherein the first robot communicates with the control server and runs in a storage area of the item sorting system;
- the storage area is deployed with at least one item-collecting container, and each of the at least one item-collecting container comprises at least two sub-compartments, wherein the method comprises:
- determining by the control server a target sub-compartment from the at least two sub-compartments of the at least one item-collecting container, and sending by the control server a sorting instruction to the first robot;
- and
- delivering by the first robot an item to the first sub-compartment in response to the sorting instruction.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium, configured in a control server of an item sorting system, wherein the item sorting system further comprises a first robot, the first robot communicates with the control server and runs in a storage area of the item sorting system;
- the storage area is deployed with at least one item-collecting container, and each of the at least one item-collecting container comprises at least two sub-compartments;
- wherein when instructions in the storage medium are executed by a processor of the control server, the processor is configured to:
- determine a target sub-compartment from the at least two sub-compartments of the at least one item-collecting container, and send a sorting instruction to the first robot.
