ABSTRACT Multi‐tote autonomous mobile robots (MT‐AMRs) are an emerging warehousing technology in which a mobile drive unit carries a lift‐based storage‐and‐retrieval mechanism with an extendable fork and a multi‐tote onboard buffer. On autonomous picking tours, an MT‐AMR visits storage locations, extracts product totes from racks, stores them in its ...
