We’ll handle it with the PickOne Perception System.

How it Works

The PickOne Perception System identifies the pick points of parcels in an accumulation chute and sends the points to your robot. The robot arm picks and places each parcel onto an induction conveyor.

PickOne verifies placement and addresses errors by issuing robot commands to reposition errant parcels. PickOne calls for more parcels from the infeed when the chute is empty.

Key Benefits

• Picks from a cluttered pile of mixed parcels (boxes, padded mailers, etc.)
• Generates pick commands much faster than alternatives
• Short latency means robot can pick parcels that are jostling

Additional Benefits

• Improved customer service driven by predictable sortation accuracy
• Cost savings: reduction in downstream verification and return handling

Example Application
