About FLOW eye
Today’s economy is heavily dependent on online shopping, meaning global parcel shipping volume is expected to grow by 50% over the next 5 years to as much as 250 billion packages per year. To handle this enormous volume, the e-commerce, courier, express, and parcel industry depends on outstanding efficiency, particularly in their intralogistics systems. However, problems frequently occur in the physical material flow of these facilities, reducing throughput by 15%, causing approximately 1% profit loss through damage cases, and delaying the ramp-up of new locations by up to 3 months. This is where the FLOW eye monitoring system can help. Using cutting-edge computer vision technology, FLOW eye revolutionizes transparency in intralogistics. It is able to continuously track conveyed goods and thereby detect, predict, and prevent anomalies in physical material flow. Installation is completely non-disruptive and works regardless of the conveyor system’s OEM. It is capable of precisely localizing anomalies such as blockages, duplicates, damage, theft, manual errors, and others in real time, recognizing patterns, identifying triggers, and making predictions. Through interaction with the conveyor system’s control system, it can generate commands to redirect or align items or trigger emergency stops of the system. FLOW eye’s knowledge is not only location-specific; it also learns from other detections within the network. All this performance data can be analyzed in a real-time KPI dashboard, which also enables customizable reports. Based on these insights, the frequency and location of recurring anomalies are automatically evaluated as the basis for system improvements. The mobile app notifies users of all incidents, including exact locations, so they no longer need to search for them themselves. FLOW eye increases the efficiency of intralogistics systems by raising throughput and ramp-up speed while minimizing costly downtime, complaints, and returns.
