Smart Logistics Measurement Solution

In high-throughput warehouse environments, measurement is often where reality clashes with process design. Dimensioning and weighing still depend on operator timing, pallet positioning, and manual confirmation steps, all happening under pressure to keep forklifts moving and lanes clear. That combination creates natural variability: the same load can be captured differently across shifts, operators, and stations. Over time, those small inconsistencies surface as inaccurate volumetric weight, disputed charges, misallocated trailer space, and a steady stream of exceptions that consume time in reconciliation and audits.

AgileVision reduces manual touchpoints by standardizing capture and validation at the point of work. Their smart logistics measurement solution combines vision, certified weight integration, and edge computing to consolidate barcodes, images, dimensions, and weight into a consistent real-time record. The intent is simple: to fit naturally into daily warehouse flow, scale to multi-camera setups, and run continuously without slowing operations.

Challenges

Operational throughput leaves little tolerance for latency or variability. The platform had to measure pallets in motion, automatically exclude the forklift and operator, and output volume and volumetric weight within a tight cycle to prevent queueing. It also needed to sustain real-time multi-camera 3D processing with certified weighing under continuous operation, consistently across shifts. Finally, scaling the camera setup required stable GigE bandwidth and practical cabling, supported by a compact, fanless compute core with sufficient I/O and performance headroom.

Key Requirements:

eBOX710A as the Compute Core

AgileVision built the measurement station around the Axiomtek eBOX710A as the edge compute core. The fanless platform supports 10th and 11th Gen Intel Core processors up to 65W, providing the processing headroom for real-time multi-camera 3D vision and time-critical measurement output in high-throughput warehouse lanes.

For scalable camera connectivity, the eBOX710A combines onboard GbE and COM interfaces with PCIe x4 expansion, allowing the addition of four extra GigE ports through the AX92322 Ethernet card while keeping camera cabling organized and practical for warehouse floor installation.

With a 9 to 48 VDC power input and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +70°C, the system is designed for continuous industrial operation in demanding warehouse environments.

Axiomtek accelerates deployment by making device-level integration straightforward. The eBOX710A combines the processing capability required for multi-camera image processing with practical I/O for cameras and peripherals, enabling solution providers to integrate vision, weighing, and identification into a single station without adding unnecessary complexity to the installation.

Application: In-Motion Measurement at Line Speed

Axiomtek eBOX710A powers the measurement station as the edge computing core, helping consolidate multi-camera 3D vision and certified weighing into a single, time-aligned record. In operation, the station measures pallets dynamically during normal warehouse flow, so forklifts can keep moving and lanes remain clear.

As a pallet enters the measurement area, five overhead 3D cameras mounted at approximately four meters provide full cargo visibility while the integrated weighing system records weight. In the same pass, barcode, images, dimensions, and weight are captured simultaneously, and the system automatically excludes the forklift and operator from the measurement result to preserve measurement integrity. The output is a unified measurement record that is consistent and ready for downstream use in shipping and warehouse processes.
