摘要
Techniques for optimizing movement of robotic drive units (RDUs) in a warehouse are described. The optimization involves assignment of a task of delivery of plurality of products to a destination location a first RDU of a plurality of RDUs in the warehouse. Then, an analysis is performed for each product whether its retrieval is to be assigned to an RDU other than the first RDU. Based on the analysis, a task of retrieval of one or more products is assigned to one or more RDUs other than the first RDU. Further, an intersection point between a future path of the first RDU and a future path of each of the one or more RDUs is determined. Based on the determination, each RDU is instructed to deliver its respective retrieved products at the intersection point. The first RDU is then instructed to retrieve products delivered at intersection points.
