International retail group digitizes and optimizes their incoming goods process with Parquery's logistics solution


Real-time results on pallets and goods detection in warehouses for logistics management.

Pilot project for the warehouse of an international retail group

Our partner vi2vi Retail Solution GmbH approached Parquery to develop a pallet management solution for one of the warehouses of an international retail corporation. Their goal was to streamline the goods-receiving process and take a step towards digitizing the supply chain.

Achieving more with and adding value to existing infrastructure

Overhead surveillance cameras capture the goods receiving area of the large warehouse. These were upgraded with Parquery's artificial intelligence (AI), which detects pallets in the camera images and extracts real-time usage and analytical data of each pallet lane.

Digitizing warehouse processes with AI

 

The real-time information on empty aisles and vacant space is critical to on-site staff. The statistics and analytics proved valuable to warehouse operations and management. They shed light on which lanes are fully utilized and which are underused.

 

Typical queries include: Which aisles are occupied and for how long? Which are the high-turnover aisles (hotlanes)? And why?

Answering these questions with an automated computer vision solution adds value to existing infrastructure while helping to optimize warehouse logistics, for example, by directing goods that need to be distributed quickly to hotlanes where they can be turned over quickly.

 

Warehouse management dashboard

Warehouse management dashboard - high-turnover and slow-moving goods aisles can be identified at a glance. The manager can then delve into a deeper enquiry with Parquery's analytics.

More logistics solutions: Automatic truck delivery staging with AI ramp monitoring

A major Swiss corporation needed an AI-controlled traffic signal for delivery staging. The ramps are monitored with our AI-solution, and when a ramp becomes free, the next truck parked in the waiting area is guided onwards by a light signal.
