CarouselAI_hotspot
RPC software

The Al-driven "brain" behind CarouselAl, fusing Al models with realtime sensor data.

Advanced self-learning offers reasoning through errors to optimize efficiency & maximizes SKU coverage.

Optimal grip strategies & enhanced precision for uninterrupted picking.

Autoswap

Ensures efficient swapping between different suction cup sizes for picking up different items.

SpectrumGripper®

The "hand" responsible for picking items from Bins.

Features advanced suction & vacuum techniques with optimal grip detection.

Doesn't require a perfect seal for a secure grasp, offering safe handling for irregular shaped & bulky items.

Primary Perception module

Intelligent vision analyzes visual data with bird's eye view of the Bin.
Ensures accurate item selection & determines optimal grasp point for SKUs

Barcode scanner

Reads and verifies item barcodes at the workstation as part of the pick cycle. Confirms item identity for traceability and compliance-sensitive workflows without additional verification hardware.

AutoStore CarouselAI robotic picking arm can handle hue variety of SKUs.

Built-in control

Barcode scanning for item verification and traceability

Native barcode scanning adds item verification directly at the workstation, helping operations confirm the correct item before fulfillment.

Built into CarouselAI, it supports traceability and compliance-sensitive workflows while reducing the need for separate verification hardware.
