Patent attributes
Techniques for identifying optimal placement instructions for placing an object within a container by a robotic device are disclosed. An artificial intelligence model may be trained utilizing historical placement images and/or placement data to identify subsequent placement instructions for a robotic device. As an object is brought within a threshold distance of a goal placement location, one or more images may be captured of an area adjacent to the placement location. Features of these images may be provided to the artificial intelligence model as input to cause the artificial intelligence model to identify particular placement instructions for the robotic device. By executing the identified placement instructions, the available space within the storage container may be optimized (e.g., increased) by reducing the space between objects of the storage container in accordance with the placement instructions.
