Warehouse automation using machine learning models can enhance operational efficiency and reduce costs in large-scale robotic fleets.
Current research focuses on increasing picking success rates by prioritizing high-probability picks but lacks data-driven optimization for performance at scale.
A new ML-based framework was developed to predict transform adjustments and optimize suction cup selection for multi-suction end effectors in packages.
The framework was tested in workcells resembling Amazon Robotics' Robot Induction fleet, leading to a 20% decrease in pick failure rates compared to heuristic methods.
