Core Technological Capabilities


1. Comprehensive Visual Traceability Management


Complete oversight of critical production nodes with precise visual problem scenario reconstruction, enhancing customer complaint resolution efficiency.


The logistics industry processes vast daily parcel volumes, yet challenges including package loss, cargo damage, and operational inefficiencies frequently disrupt normal business operations. While companies implement increased inspection frequencies and various quality enhancement measures, rapid defect identification remains elusive when problems occur, requiring substantial human resources, material investments, and time expenditure for systematic root cause analysis—preventing these methods from becoming routine operational management tools.


2. Automated Cargo Information Sensing


Leveraging AI Cloud technology framework for automatic parcel weighing, volume measurement, and barcode recognition, with integrated data transmission to system servers.


Hikvision's logistics product data sensing capabilities, combined with open API interfaces, provide seamless data feedback to business systems. The DWS system processes barcode data, weight, and volume information, transmitting this intelligence to logistics business systems while integrating with downstream sorting systems to achieve comprehensive data collection and cargo sorting functionality.


3. Advanced Logistics Perception


AI-powered technology enablement utilizing deep learning and multi-dimensional sensing for parcel barcode reading, OCR recognition, and volume measurement.


Deep learning-based barcode reading technology excels in complex scenarios including extreme depth of field, wrinkled, soiled, or reflective surface conditions. The company's cameras utilize AI chip platforms enabling multi-functional capabilities within single devices—including barcode reading, shipping label extraction, OCR recognition, and shipping label image enhancement—representing a significant competitive advantage over domestic and international competitors.


4. Intelligent Parcel Recognition


Proprietary intelligent stereo cameras utilizing deep learning algorithms and active binocular imaging technology for precise parcel positioning and recognition, enabling automatic classification, separation, and loading.


As the logistics industry experiences rapid growth with exponentially increasing parcel volumes, automation upgrade demands become increasingly urgent. Addressing complex and diverse parcel scenarios, Hikvision's intelligent stereo cameras deliver high frame rate RGB-D imaging for precise parcel positioning, with current applications spanning single-item separation, robotic supply systems, and palletizing/depalletizing operations.


Future Outlook


Machine vision technology continues its deep integration across industries, providing powerful momentum for industrial upgrade and development. Moving forward, Hikvision Robotics remains committed to continuous innovation, delivering increasingly advanced and efficient solutions across diverse sectors while driving intelligent transformation and upgrade across all industries.


The company's comprehensive approach to logistics automation—combining cutting-edge AI, robotics, and vision technologies—positions it as a transformative force in the global logistics landscape, setting new standards for efficiency, accuracy, and scalability in warehouse and distribution operations.
