The company develops software for 3D cameras that are used worldwide in the logistics industry to improve data quality. The subject of the new partnership is the integration of the MetriXFreight volume measurement technology for automatic volume and freight measurement into Divis' software-based video management systems.

Users can integrate automatic volume measurement into the software with the Dimension+ add-on module and thus determine the dimensions of their shipments automatically, easily and quickly. The MetriXFreight volume measurement technology requires less than one second for the actual measurement process of a package. This enables logistics companies to carry out up to 600 measurements per hour. The measuring system, which can be integrated into the logistics hall in virtually any position, supplies calibrated measurement data and provides valid volume information for transport cost accounting and loading area utilization in scheduling. In combination with other data obtained during the handling process, it also opens up extensive potential for process optimization.

The existing Divis ecosystem provides a wide range of data that is collected along the daily logistics processes. Combined sensibly, this data allows processes to be automated in a targeted manner and thus made more efficient. Divis makes it possible to collect and control this data, which can otherwise only be collected with the help of several individual systems, in a fully integrated manner via a single platform. This ensures a consistent user experience and eliminates the need for an extra learning curve. The video and location data provided by the Cargovis video management system makes it possible, for example, to investigate the loss of and damage to consignments.
