Abstract: The system can include: a chassis, sensor suite, computing system, a set of drive mechanisms, a set of deployment mechanisms, and/or any other suitable components. The system can optionally include a support tray and a set of tray actuators. However, the system can additionally or alternatively include any other suitable set of components. The system functions to traverse within a support frame. Additionally or alternatively, the system can structurally support and/or a transport payload (e.g., shipping pallet), such as on the optional support tray (e.g., which may be actuated/locked into the support frame). However, the system can provide any other suitable functionalities.

Abstract: The system can include: a cell frame structure; a robot; and a motion planner. The system can optionally include a set of cell trays and a warehouse management system. The cell frame structure can include and/or define a set of payload storage cells; a set of transfer cells; a set of cell tray storage cells. However, the system can additionally or alternatively include any other suitable set of components. The system functions to automatically manage the storage of payloads within a grid-based structural system.

Abstract: Systems and methods for operation and assembly of a helical drive are provided. A helical drive includes a discrete roller assembly-based roller worm including a body portion and a plurality of discrete roller assemblies disposed in a first helical pattern about the body portion. The helical drive includes an engagement structure including a primary axis, wherein the roller worm is configured to rotate about a central axis to cause linear translation of the roller worm along a length of the engagement structure and the primary axis. The engagement structure includes a plurality of tracks disposed along the length of the engagement structure, where each of the tracks is configured to receive at least one of the roller assemblies during the rotation of the roller worm.

Abstract: The system can include a warehouse management system, a motion planner, an optional user interface (UI), and/or any other suitable components. The system can include or interface with a set of robots and a cell frame structure. However, the system can additionally or alternatively include any other suitable set of components. The system functions to facilitate automated storage and/or retrieval of payloads (e.g., cell trays, pallets, etc.) within a warehouse. Additionally or alternatively, the system can function to dynamically rebalance and/or rearrange the payloads, such as to increase global throughput efficiency (e.g., reduce storage and/or retrieval times; reduce number of required actions; etc.).
