Logistics, as a key business sector for the global economy, faces major challenges today. Globalization, changing consumer expectations and complex inventory management all call for innovative solutions to ensure the smooth running of these essential cogs in the wheel.

The process of globalization has undoubtedly increased the volume of trade. Against this backdrop, logistics companies are obliged to rethink their strategies in order to develop efficient approaches to transport, storage and distribution.

Modern consumers are increasingly demanding a seamless shopping experience. They want to be able to order products online and receive them quickly, whether at home or at the point of sale. To meet these pressing expectations, companies in the sector need to orchestrate extremely precise logistics processes, optimizing their entire supply chain.

Inventory management, the cornerstone of logistics, is of crucial importance. Striking the balance between maintaining adequate stocks to meet demand and avoiding overstocking, a potential source of unnecessary costs, is a delicate task requiring fine-tuned, efficient management.

The sector's major obstacles

Logistics players face a number of challenges: complex inventory management, optimization of operations, increasing pressure from customer expectations...

Delays in delivery, loss of goods, safety incidents: these obstacles hamper performance and impede business growth.

At the same time, worker safety in warehouses remains a priority. These environments are both dynamic and demanding, requiring constant vigilance to prevent accidents.

In this context, digital technologies are emerging as valuable allies. They enable :

• real-time data collection and analysis,

• automate criticalprocesses,

• theintegration of intelligent safety devices to protect teams.

By adopting these tools, logistics companies can not only meet today's challenges, but also sustainably improve their operational efficiency, while reinforcing the security of their human capital.

Computer vision, a powerful ally

In the modern era of logistics, where efficiency and safety are imperatives, computer vision is emerging as a revolutionary technology, offering a myriad of benefits that fundamentally transform the way logistics operations are managed.

• Better tracking of goods to reduce losses

The ability of computer vision to track goods in detail, from cartons to pallets, is invaluable. This technology enables real-time monitoring of loading and unloading, reducing the risk of loss. Every item can be tracked with unprecedented accuracy, minimizing errors and ensuring complete visibility of the flow of goods.

• Optimize operations with vehicle tracking and monitoring

Computer vision brings a new dimension to on-site tracking of loading vehicles. Thanks to this technology, precise vehicle identification becomes a reality, simplifying logistics management. In addition, inventory management is optimized, with detailed analysis of loads, enabling more strategic planning and efficient use of resources.

• Safeguarding staff and reducing incidents

Worker safety is an absolute priority in logistics warehouses. Computer vision enables real-time monitoring of isolated workers, detecting falls and preventing fire outbreaks. What's more, the technology enhances overall safety by securing the infrastructure via intrusion or prolonged presence detection, creating a safer, more serene working environment.

Key metrics analyzed in an interactive dashboard

Within the logistics ecosystem, several key functions emerge: from supply chain manager to fleet manager to logistics analyst. Each of these players has specific needs in terms of visibility, operational control and safety. CORE, our computer vision platform, adapts to the needs of these stakeholders, offering a versatile solution that meets the varied requirements of the sector. Indeed, computer vision catalyzes improved return on investment (ROI) on several levels. Reduced cycle times thanks to faster, more accurate operations management, increased productivity resulting from optimized processes, optimized compliance with regulatory standards, and optimized storage space all converge to create a powerful synergy that translates into increased profitability.

In conclusion, computer vision is not just an innovative technology for logistics, it's a revolution. By offering unrivalled visibility, precise operations management and enhanced security, this technology is redefining the landscape of modern logistics. Companies that embrace this revolution not only benefit from operational optimization, but also pave the way for smarter, safer and more efficient logistics.
