Abstract: Techniques for adjusting the sizes of geo-fences based on an individual's likely location are disclosed herein. An example method includes determining one or more geo-fenced zones corresponding to one or more respective areas; receiving location information indicative of the one or more areas expected to be visited by the individual, of the one or more respective areas; and adjusting the one or more geo-fenced zones based on the one or more respective areas expected to be visited by the individual.

Abstract: A computing device for dimensioning an object includes: a dimensioning subsystem configured to execute a default dimensioning method and a backup dimensioning method; a memory storing quality evaluation rules; a processor connected with the dimensioning subsystem and the memory, the processor configured to: control the dimensioning subsystem to execute a default dimensioning method to obtain default dimensioning data; compare a quality metric for the default dimensioning data to a threshold condition defined in the quality evaluation rules; when the quality metric exceeds the threshold condition, compute dimensions of the object based on the default dimensioning data; and when the quality metric does not exceed the threshold condition, control the dimensioning subsystem to execute the backup dimensioning method to obtain backup dimensioning data and compute the dimensions of the object based on the backup dimensioning data.

Abstract: Feedback generation for a container load process includes digitizing a manual workflow into stages, assigning intermediate targets to each stage, monitoring the workflow, and generating notifications to exert feedback control over the workflow. Feedback generation can include: storing a set of load stage definitions defining sequential load stages of the load process, each stage definition including: an intermediate performance target, and a stage duration; responsive to arrival of a container at a load bay, receiving a task definition defining a performance target for the load process; retrieving the load stages in sequence and, for each stage: receiving sensor data depicting an interior of the container; determining, based on the sensor data, a performance measurement of the container load process, comparing the performance measurement to the intermediate performance target corresponding to the stage, and based on the comparison, generating an alert and/or status message for transmission to a client computing device.

Abstract: An operation management system is disclosed. The operation management system may receive a video stream from a wearable device of a user that is performing an operation in a physical environment. The operation management system may process, using an operation performance model, a set of frames of the video stream that indicates a state of a performance of the operation by the user. The operation management system may determine, based on the state of the performance by the user, a next task of the operation. The operation management system may configure display data that is associated with a physical object that is associated with the next task. The display data may be associated with an indicator that identifies the physical object and/or task information associated with performing the next task. The operation management system may provide the display data to the wearable device.

Abstract: A method of generating feedback for a container load process includes: during a load process for a container at a load bay, controlling a sensor assembly disposed at the load bay to capture sensor data depicting an interior of the container; at a computing device connected to the sensor assembly, detecting, based on the sensor data, a wall of items placed in the container interior; determining, at the computing device from the sensor data: (i) a boundary attribute of the detected wall, and (ii) a composition attribute of the detected wall; comparing, at the computing device, (i) the boundary attribute to a boundary criterion, and (ii) the composition attribute to a composition criterion; and responsive to at least one of the boundary attribute not meeting the boundary criterion, or the composition attribute not meeting the composition attribute, generating an alert for transmission to a client computing device.

Abstract: Methods for assessing trailer utilization are disclosed herein. An example method includes capturing an image featuring a trailer, and segmenting the image into a plurality of regions. For each region the example method may include cropping the image to exclude data that exceeds a respective forward distance threshold, and iterating over each data point to determine whether or not a matching point is included. Responsive to whether or not a matching point included for a respective data point, the method may include adding the respective data point or the matching point to a respective region based on a position of the respective data point. Further, the method may include calculating a normalized height of the respective region based on whether or not a gap is present in the respective region; and creating a 3D model visualization of the trailer that depicts trailer utilization.
