DESC:BACKGROUND
Technical Field
[0001] Embodiments herein generally relate to a location assistance system, more particularly to a system and method for assisting location of objects for a user on storage units.
Description of the Related Art
[0002] Many organisations, including commercial enterprises, government regulators, scientific research facilities, and educational institutions, require secure storage for enormous quantities of objects. The size of the objects might vary depending on the application, and they are stored in containers. These containers are kept in a tray that either accommodates one or more racks or a rack that allows individual articles to be stored or retrieved without removing the entire rack.
[0003] The containers, racks, and trays are typically labelled with a bar code or another machine-readable identifier because tracking the items is crucial. Each object's identity and location are kept in a system memory that keeps track of all the samples in the storage system. This allows for the quick identification and retrieval of specific objects from storage. The system must be able to pick specific items from one or more racks in the storage compartment while limiting the exposure of other objects in the storage compartment, or in the same trays, to an environmental change in order for the retrieval process to take place without unnecessarily exposing objects. Additionally, the system must be dependable in order to be serviced without putting the objects at risk of exposure to unfavourable environments.
[0004] Accordingly, there remains a need for a system and method for assisting users with a location of the objects for efficiently storing and retrieving objects.

enable a first light source from the plurality of light sources to determine a column location of the object on the object access table; and
enable a second light source from the plurality of light sources to determine a row location of the object on the object access table.

8. The location assistance system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first register values and the second register values are associated with at least one of technical parameters associated with the storage and retrieval systems (104A-N), errors, pointer assembly reset location or column and row direction of the objects the storage units (112A-N) of the storage and retrieval systems (104A-N).

9. A method for providing location assistance for storage units comprising
generating first register values for first inputs that is received from the user (108), wherein the register values correspond with at least one of storage and retrieval of at least one objects from the storage and retrieval systems (104A-N);
determining at least one second register values from the database for the generated first register values;
generating an action code for the first user inputs using at least of the first register values and the second register values;
determining a status code from a plurality of status codes for at least one of (a) empty cabins or (b) at least one component locations on each storage cabins of the storage and retrieval systems (104A-N);
generating at least one control codes using at least one of the first register values, the second register values, the action code or the status code;
enabling the storage and retrieval systems (104A-N) to perform at least one of object storage or retrieval on the storage units (112A-N) by communicating the action code and the status code; and
enabling the pointer assembly (122) to assist the user to identify a location of the object on the object access table (120) with the light sources to perform at least one of the object storage or retrieval on the storage units (112A-N) of the storage and retrieval systems (104A-N).
