  • Object location guiding device and operation method thereof
    Patent number: 9741013
    Abstract: An object location guiding device and an operation method thereof are provided. The object location guiding device includes a processor, a controller and a guiding element array. Guiding elements of the guiding element array are disposed at different positions in a field so as to point to storage positions of different objects in the field. The processor converts the object data on an object list into storage-position information. The controller receives the storage-position information from the processor, converts the storage-position information into a first axis position code and a second axis position code, and drives the guiding element array by using the first axis position code and the second axis position code, so as to allow at least one corresponding guiding element of the guiding elements to point to a storage position of a corresponding object in the field.
