(54) Title: SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING AN INDUSTRIAL CART FOR A GROW POD (57) : A cart (104a) having a wheel (222a-222d), a drive motor (226a) coupled to the wheel such that an output of the drive motor (226a) causes the wheel (222a-222d) to rotate and propel the cart (104a), a cart-computing device (228a) communicatively coupled to the drive motor (226a); and sensors (232a, 234a) communicatively coupled to the cart-computing device (228a), the sensors (232a, 234a) generating one or more signals in response to a detected event. The cart-computing device (228a) receives a communication signal and electrical power from the track (102) via the wheel (222a-222d). The communication signal corresponds to one or more instructions for controlling an operation of the cart (104a). The cart-computing device (228a) receives the one or more signals from the sensors (232a, 234a). The cart-computing device (228a) generates and transmits a control signal to the drive motor (226a) to cause the drive motor (226a) to operate based on at least one of the one or more signals generated by the sensors (232a, 234a) or the communication [Continued on next page] WO 2018/231318 Al OII (81) Designated States (unless otherwise indicated, for every kind of national protection available): AE, AG, AL, AM, AO, AT, AU, AZ, BA, BB, BG, BH, BN, BR, BW, BY, BZ, CA, CH, CL, CN, CO, CR, CU, CZ, DE, DJ, DK, DM, DO, DZ, EC, EE, EG, ES, FI, GB, GD, GE, GH, GM, GT, HN, HR, HU, ID, IL, IN, IR, IS, JO, JP, KE, KG, KH, KN, KP, KR, KW, KZ, LA, LC, LK, LR, LS, LU, LY, MA, MD, ME, MG, MK, MN, MW, MX, MY, MZ, NA, NG, NI, NO, NZ, OM, PA, PE, PG, PH, PL, PT, QA, RO, RS, RU, RW, SA, SC, SD, SE, SG, SK, SL, SM, ST, SV, SY, TH, TJ, TM, TN, TR, TT, TZ, UA, UG, US, UZ, VC, VN, ZA, ZM, ZW.
