System, method, and storage unit for managing multiple objects in an object zone

摘要

Disclosed is a system for managing multiple objects in an object zone. The system comprises multiple machine-readable object identification tags configured to be respectively attached to the multiple objects; a storage unit moving through the object zone to store the selected objects which are respectively attached with the machine-readable object identification tags; at least one machine-readable storage unit identification tag attached to the storage unit; and multiple spaced reading units capable of remotely reading the multiple machine-readable object identification tags and the at least one machine-readable storage unit identification tag, wherein the objects attached with the machine-readable object identification tags within a predefined spatial range defined based on the at least one machine-readable storage unit identification tag are associated with the storage unit. A method thereof and a storage unit are also disclosed.

1. A system for managing multiple objects in an object zone, comprising:
multiple machine-readable object identification tags configured to be respectively attached to the multiple objects; a storage unit moving through the object zone for storing one or more of the multiple objects within a predefined spatial range defining an area with the storage unit; at least one machine-readable storage unit identification tag configured to be attached to the storage unit and configured to define the predefined spatial range; multiple spaced reading units configured to remotely read the multiple machine-readable object identification tags and the at least one machine-readable storage unit identification tag; and at least one processor and memory configured to:
determine that the one or more of the multiple objects are within the predefined spatial range based on the reading of the multiple-readable object identification tags and the at least one machine-readable storage unit identification tag; andassociate the one or more of the multiple objects with the storage unit based on the determination.
