  • Publication number: 20240239606
    Abstract: An order fulfillment control for a warehouse includes a controller, a memory, a current state storage, and a training module. The controller controls fulfillment activities and issues orders to pickers. The controller controls the issuance of the orders and records operational data corresponding to the fulfillment activities in the warehouse. The memory holds operational data. The current state storage holds live data corresponding to the current state of the warehouse defined by selected portions of the operational data. The inference module includes an order release control to issue an order release recommendation to the controller when a set of live data is received from the current state storage. The training module retrains the order release controls. The training module performs reinforcement learning on the operational data to retrain and update the order release control. The order release control is retrained based upon priorities for optimal operation of the warehouse.

  • Publication number: 20240046204
    Abstract: An order fulfillment control system for a warehouse in accordance with the present invention includes a controller, a memory module, and a training module. The controller controls mobile autonomous devices, fixed autonomous devices, and issues picking orders to pickers. The controller controls fulfillment activities in the warehouse using hierarchically tiered algorithms, and records operational data for the fulfillment activities in the warehouse. The memory module holds the operational data. The training module retrains the algorithm using reinforcement learning. The training module performs the reinforcement learning on the operational data to retrain/update the algorithms. The training module retrains a macro algorithm according to a first set of priorities for optimal operation of the warehouse and retrains a plurality of micro algorithms according to corresponding second sets of priorities for optimal operation of a particular location and/or activity within the warehouse.

  • Publication number: 20230373248
    Abstract: Big wheel cars that have wheels with diameters of 24?, 26?, and 28? have tires that are currently made specifically for various weather conditions which require the tires to have tread on the face of the tire, but nothing regarding high performance or racing applications. This invention will give the rear of the car more traction and safer stopping/steering performances during high performance applications that include DOT approved tires for public highways, and non-DOT approved tires for racing applications on raceways.
