Vector with Lift: Maintain Cart through the Drop-off Process [Bot Never Drops Cart]

-Create the possibility for an Origin style drop-off/induct flow with the Vector bot with a cart used through the lift attachment

-Vector bot continues through the whole induct/drop-off process without losing the cart

Problem/opportunity trying to be solved

-Currently unable to maintain the cart through the drop-off process

-Client wants to keep the carts on the bot through the drop-off process

Quantify the problem/opportunity

-Design for site here is a larger Origin style picking with the Vector with Lift and Carts

-Product is too large for any of the fixed shelf options for the Vector, necessitates a cart

-Client doesn't want to maintain many carts off of the bot

-Eliminates dock/undock time

-Induct and Drop-off time in this flow is very quick

What is the root cause of the problem/opportunity

-Designed flow maintains the cart through the drop-off induct process

-Flow is to just take the full totes off the bot, throw the new totes on the bot, start new mission
