Virtual reality warehouse management system complement
First Claim
1. A system for enhancing a warehouse management system comprising:
- a virtual reality technology means comprising means for processing computer generated graphics imagery refreshed at a selected realtime or non-realtime update rate by computing a three dimensional perspective view of a supply chain surroundings or location from a viewpoint in a three dimensional world said viewpoint comprising roll, pitch, yaw or heading, coordinate information in relation to a central coordinate location where when said viewpoint changes an entire new image being calculated, created and displayed, whereby advances to ones of a warehousing, logistics, distribution and supply chain industry occur.

Abstract
An image generator system (5) with a warehouse database (3) that is integrated to an image generator system human interface (FIG. 6) (virtual reality) and integrated to a warehouse management system'"'"'s (WMS) stock location system (FIG. 1). This software and hardware combination performs warehousing functions in a simple, visual, real time, non real time and three-dimensional environment. This computer combination is intended for organizations to more efficiently manage the warehousing process—especially by locating key positions. World famine can be reduced with the capabilities of visualizing locations within any warehouse. All industries that use warehouses can ultimately use this virtual reality warehouse management system complement to augment their distribution process. The combination of two previous technologies: that of Virtual Reality (real time 3D graphics) and the field of warehousing and warehouse management systems.
