WATA AI separates fixed objects from moving objects in real-time collected spatial information and updates the location information of changed logistics in real-time to implement a sustainable digital twin.

Background and Purpose

Background and Purpose

The existing manual-centric logistics process involved measuring and entering data manually. To address the data inaccuracies and labor cost burdens that arise from this process, automation solutions have been introduced to maximize warehouse space utilization.

Key Benefits of Implementation

① Cost Reduction and Productivity Improvement

  • Optimization of Human Resources: By eliminating personnel in the measurement process, which is a simple repetitive task (from 2 people to 0), the workforce can be redeployed to more value-added inspection or management tasks.

  • Acceleration of Processing Speed: By collecting data while the goods move without stopping using automatic measurement equipment, the overall lead time has been shortened.

② Quality Control and Risk Elimination

  • Zero Human Error: We have fundamentally blocked errors in freight calculation and delivery accidents caused by incorrect entries or measurement mistakes.

  • Prevention of Wrong Shipments: By matching accurate logistics data with real coordinates, we eliminated the risk of incorrect goods being loaded into containers.

③ Optimization of Warehouse Operations

  • Maximization of Space Efficiency: Based on accurate size information of the cargo, simulations of container loading have been performed, allowing for optimal arrangements that minimize empty space.

  • Management Based on Digital Twin: By visualizing the flow of goods within the warehouse in real-time using real coordinate data, management efficiency has been improved.
