Systems and methods for dynamic processing of objects provided in vehicles with dual function end effector tools

This is an automated system designed to unload various items from the back of a semi-trailer. It first uses sensors to understand the overall arrangement of objects inside the trailer, specifically noting their height and how close they are to the back. Then, it assesses individual objects to determine their exact position and surroundings, using this information to dynamically choose between at least two different robotic gripping systems to pick up and remove each item.

Why it matters: Filed before recent advancements in AI-driven computer vision and robotic control. These improvements could now make the dynamic load and object assessment, and the selection of engagement systems, more robust.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedRobotic arms, sensors, complex software
