Designed to help with locating a specific bot in the pick space for certain reasons. An example would be if Operations is trying to track down a certain bot because a tote needs to be expedited or moved to another bot. (I’ve seen this a lot at SD1 in the past) It is currently very difficult to find specific bots when needed. The functionality would allow Operations to select a desired bot or order in the admin iPad/Portal and the bot would either: 1) stop in place and play a sound to announce its location, 2) proceed to a designated meet-up location in the map, or 3) proceed to LP99.
Problem/opportunity trying to be solved
If a site's Operations team needs to find a specific bot today, it is very challenging if the site is even remotely large. |

Quantify the problem/opportunity
This would be more of an on-site Operations team gain by being able to manage their operations more efficiently. |

What is the root cause of the problem/opportunity
There is no good way to be able to track down specific bots today for customers. |
