Freight Measurement App

FULLY CUSTOMISIBLE

Utilising hand held or mounted low cost 3D camera technology, this point-and-click application can accurately calculate length, width and height dimensions using a single photo.

3D FREIGHT MEASURE APP

Definitely not just a box measuring app. Customers tell us that measuring accurate dimensions of freight, particularly irregular shapes, sizes, materials and pallets is a challenge. They told us that significant efficiencies can be found through recording the dimensions of freight. Utilising hand held or mounted low cost 3D camera technology, this point-and-click application can accurately calculate length, width and height dimensions using a single photo. Automatic object detection streamlines workflow and improves overall efficiency.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

FREIGHT MEASURE EXCELS AT CAPTURING IRREGULAR OBJECTS FROM 2CM TO 5M

BENEFITS

GPC Freight Measure allows users to obtain accurate dimensional measurements from a single capture from a mobile device, sending the data to the relevant applications and back end systems in real time.

Works in low light conditions.

Handheld and fixed solutions available – PDA and Tablet, dock doors, weigh scales, conveyors and FLT’s.

Fully customisable to your use case and environment.

Freight measure excels at capturing irregular objects from 2cm to 5m in size.

Works with reflective surfaces such as black shrink wrap.

Option to exclude pallet or skid.

PROBLEMS SOLVED

A number of our clients, particularly those within the last mile courier sector, do not need fully accurate dimensions. All they need to know is whether they are picking up a washing machine or a toaster for forward planning. For clients who have large warehouses, knowing whether an item will fit in their racking or conveyor can be guesswork at best.

For our customers like IAG Cargo, knowing the size of baggage and cargo when it comes in has proved invaluable when forward planning. Knowing exactly what will fit means planes are never delayed because AWB’s are too big for the hold and cargo space is always filled to maximum capacity.

Talking to customers, we have found a common issue in supply chains. There is often a disparity between the dimensions a customer states on the label vs the actual item size. By accurately checking weights and dimensions with our Freight Measurement App, our clients can ensure their customers pay for the items shipped in full.

USE CASES

POINT OF COLLECTION

Using a handheld device, users can obtain accurate item dimensions at the point of collection allowing for more efficient forward planning and reduced discrepancies.

CARGO CENTRES

Using fixed or mobile devices users can capture accurate dimensions as soon as items are received for more efficient AWB building.

AUTOMATED SYSTEMS

Using fixed cameras and AI the system can automatically detect and capture items on conveyors.

DEPOT CROSS CHECKING

Using a mobile or fixed device users can obtain accurate dimensional information to spot check item specs for revenue protection.

PALLET DIMENSIONING

Cameras can be mounted to fork lift trucks to allow dimensional capture as part of regular process.

KIOSK / PACKING STATIONS

Fixed stations can use mounted cameras on weigh scales to provide weight and dimension data.

SOLUTIONS

MOBILE

Freight Measure can be used on any compatible mobile device including tablets and PDA units, mobile dimensioning provides a greater degree of flexibility meaning a wider array of items can be captured.

FLT

Using an array of vehicle mounted cameras paired with a dead weight scale we can enable users to capture accurate weights and dimensions as items are picked up with no change to current workflows.

CONVEYOR

Cameras can be fixed to conveyor systems, allowing item dimensions to be captured as items pass through.

DOCK DOOR / CARGO BAY

Cameras can be mounted above dock to enable automated capture as items are unloaded.

WEIGH SCALES

Cameras can be mounted to fixed and mobile scales (pump trucks).

R & D

If you have a requirement which our current solutions cannot meet, we are more than happy to discuss it with you.

HOW IT WORKS

INTEL REALSENSE

Our technology is based around leveraging the Intel RealSense camera line. Intel developed the RealSense as the new industry standard in 3D imaging, the units can be wired into fixed systems or attached/integrated to mobile units.

TELEPHOTO LENSES

Using two telephoto lenses, an infra-red camera and infra-red laser the units can accurately decipher the distances between points.
