System and Method for Automated Fulfillment of Orders in a Facility

A system and a method for the automated fulfillment of retail orders in a facility is disclosed. A sorting control device aggregates a plurality of orders into a master picklist divides the master picklist into sub-picklists based on a location of the items. The sub-picklists, a first location of an item, and the location of a dock to a conveyor system are transmitted to an autonomous guided vehicle (AGV). The AGV navigates to the first location and obtains the item. The AGV iterates the sub-picklist navigating and retrieving each item. The AGV navigates to the AGV dock of a conveyor system and deposits the items at an inlet of the conveyor system. The conveyor system scans each of the items as they pass through a scan tube. Based on the scanning, each item is directed by a set of computer controlled rollers and actuated platforms to a destination isolation wing.
