Abstract

The paper explains new technologies and their role in the dehumanization of traditional warehouses. Smart warehouses and the application of modern technologies with the use of artificial intelligence achieve greater integration with people, through the use of autonomous robots. The paper explains the approach to working with systems for moving large amounts of data via the Internet of Things, then using the latest sensor technology, Light Detection and Ranging technology, as a tool for successfully handling autonomous robots, navigating in indoor and outdoor warehouses, and reducing their movement. For the quality handling of smart warehouses and collected large data, warehouse management systems such as Warehouse management system and Inventory management system are explained. This paper will show an example of the use of autonomous robots and explain the diagram of the warehouse inventory management system as one of the important
factors for reducing warehouse operating costs.
