- 30 - SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ACCESSING INFORMATION ON STORED OPTICAL DISCS ABSTRACT An automatic disc handling system and method for retrieving and positioning information carrying discs between a storage position to a position of use is described. A displaceable robot having a pair of robotic arms is controlled by a computer connected to a robot controller and instructed to move to discrete positions, either in front of storage racks where a plurality of superposed lighting trays containing one or more discs are stored, or to a plurality of playback units disposed at said position of use to move selected ones of the disc to and from these positions and as requested by a person accessing the discs from a remote station. The robot is provided with a tray engaging element to move the tray in and out of its storage position, and the robotic arms of the robot are each provided with a picker mechanism to engage and remove the discs from the trays or the playback units and transport them to effectuate a function as dictated by the computer and the robot controller. The robotic arms are also adapted to invert the disc for access to information recorded on both sides thereof.
