Large "cart markers" on top of cart to enable locating and orientation using our camera system
Overhead camera monitors the location and orientation of carts within a space
The precision alignment software architecture used in Vector and Max can provide a pose relative to the camera
And the camera can be located relative to the map using the map's coordinate system
This enables the camera to give precise location information on the carts within the building
Single sensor can replace all other sensors by detecting if a cart is at a particular coordinate location within the map

Problem/opportunity trying to be solved
When Vector is picking up or dropping off carts there's a need to know if a cart is parked in a certain place, what the orientation of the cart is, and in some cases which specific cart is parked in a location. |

Quantify the problem/opportunity
Almost every Vector opportunity uses a cart. Almost every use case that uses a cart needs this solution. |
