<p>A loading station (20) for loading items to a robotic system is provided which permits the robotic system to unequivocally identify each of the items essentially without mistakes. The station (20) comprises a sensing panel (24) on which the items are placed and which has a sensing arrangement for emitting a location data signal responsive to placing an item thereon, and being indicative of the item's location on the tray; a reading assembly (32) for reading a sign allocated for each different item prior to placing it on the tray and emitting an identity data signal corresponding to said sign; and a processor for receiving said location data signal and said identity data signal, ascribing one to the other, and generating an output data signal to be transferred to the robotic system.</p> |
