Products & ServicesOptimized Logistics & Container Loading
See every step of loading, from the warehouse floor to the sealed container.
How it works
Cameras over the work area
The system understands the loading steps, not just who is there.
Marked with a time stamp
Off-standard work can be replayed, which helps settle damage disputes.
Find the slow step
The numbers show the real bottleneck.

Read the full description
Loading is the part of the shipping chain where things go wrong most often. It is also the hardest part to manage. A careless move can hurt a worker or damage goods. Nobody can watch every loading dock all day. And when cargo arrives damaged, no one can say which step caused it.
We put cameras over the work area. Then we build a system that understands the loading steps. It does more than check whether someone is standing there. It compares each step with your standard procedure, the set way the work should be done. It marks where the work went off-standard, with a time stamp you can replay. It also adds up how long each step takes. So the numbers show the real bottleneck, the step that slows everything down. Buyers can get video and data updates before the container is closed and sealed.
The result: unsafe moves are flagged when they happen. Delays are traced to a specific step. Damage disputes can be settled by replaying the footage. The same method has run at an offshore warehouse in a free-trade zone. It has also run at a port authority in South China.
What is included
Understands the loading steps
It recognizes the key actions and stages of loading. It does not just look for people in the picture.
Checks work against your procedure
Each step is compared with your standard procedure. Off-standard steps are marked with a time stamp. You can replay them later.
Finds the slow step
Time and errors are added up for each step. So data, not guesswork, shows where the bottleneck is.
Multi-camera, one timeline
All cameras are calibrated (set up to line up with each other) and their clocks are synced. So every angle shows the same moment.
Updates for the buyer
Video and data on the loading can be shared with the buyer before the container is sealed.
Works with your records
Loading data can be linked with records you already keep, such as spreadsheets and databases.
Key strengths
Tracks actions, not identities
By default, there is no face recognition. There is no database of staff identities either. A site may need to link events to named staff. If so, the site keeps that part and its legal duties.
Run on real sites
It has been put into use at an offshore free-trade-zone warehouse. It has also been used at a port authority in South China. It is not only a demo.
Helps with training too
New workers can see their own steps compared with the standard. This is faster than teaching by talking.
Fits other sites with set procedures
The same method fits bonded warehouses (where goods wait before import tax is paid), distribution centres, factory floors and building sites. It fits anywhere with a standard procedure that today only a person can watch.
In pictures
What we need from you
Representative footage, camera positions, the operating procedure and examples of acceptable and unacceptable work.
Deliverables
- An agreed event catalogue and labelled review samples
- A configured recognition workflow with time-stamped review results
- Deployment and operator handover instructions
How it is accepted
Measure missed events and false alerts on agreed held-out footage, then review performance under actual site conditions.
