Claim 22:
23. A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium and comprising computer instructions for:
implementing, by one or more processors, a plan to move and place an item from a source location to a destination location comprising:
autonomously operating a robotic structure having a robotic arm to move and place the item using an end effector of the robotic arm along a predetermined path from the source location to the destination location, wherein:
in response to a first determination that a weight of the item is greater than a predefined threshold, a first active measure is performed to adjust the plan to singulate the item;
the item comprises one or more identifiers;
in response to a second determination that at least one of the one or more identifiers was not obtained by a first sensor of a plurality of sensors, performing a second active measure to cause one or more other sensors of the plurality of sensors to obtain the at least one identifier that was not obtained;
the one or more other sensors are downstream from the first sensor;
the predetermined path corresponds to a path along which the item is moved from the source location to the destination location; and
the predetermined path is configured so that the item is moved within a threshold range of the plurality of sensors while the item is moved along the predetermined path; and

autonomously operating the robotic structure to place the item at the destination location based at least in part on the plan.
