Revolutionizing Beverage Logistics

From warehouse monitoring to instant action: the EPG AURA Observer delivers “out-of-the-box” AI for logistics operations. It is a ready-to-use solution for Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) that provides immediate operational transparency, monitoring, and optimization. By combining state-of-the-art AI with proven logistics use cases, video footage is transformed directly into logistics intelligence.

The Challenge in the Beverage Industry

In beverage logistics, handling 4- or 6-pallet forks is standard in order to achieve high throughput. However, this leads to technological limitations with conventional systems:

  • Barcode blind flight:
    Since a forklift picks up pallets two rows deep, the pallets in the second row are physically out of reach for barcode scanners.
  • Infrastructure load:
    Conventional tracking systems such as indoor GPS or RFID floor anchors generate high costs, require structural interventions in the floor, and are maintenance-intensive.
  • Process uncertainty:
    Without visual control, it often remains unclear whether pallets have actually been stored or retrieved in the correct aisle of the block warehouse.

The Solution: Intelligent Video Recognition (IVA) Instead of Sensors

The EPG AURA Observer makes complex floor infrastructures unnecessary and delivers valuable insights from the moment it is installed:

  • Tracking without barcodes:
    The system recognizes pallet movements purely visually via live video streams. Since the AI tracks the “pallet” object in space, the flow of goods remains fully transparent even when two rows are on the forks.
  • Natural interaction:
    Users simply describe in natural language what they want to observe or analyze in order to immediately create their own use cases for the block warehouse.
  • Instant value:
    No project setup, model training, or integration is required.

AI-Based Video Intelligence for Block Storage

Transform live video streams into actionable, real-time intelligence from the very moment it is installed.

Interaction is intuitive and effortless: users simply describe in natural language what they want to observe, analyze, or monitor—and create their own use cases instantly. Based on the embedded hardware and pre-installed AI model, insights are generated instantly—with no need for AI expertise, developers, or technical implementation.

Designed for Privacy, Built for Full Data Control

  • Privacy by design
    Personal data is automatically anonymized or blurred in accordance with applicable data protection regulations.
  • Data sovereignty:
    Video streams are processed locally on the box; no footage leaves the company.
  • Notifications:
    Events can trigger alerts directly, for example via Microsoft Teams.

Warehouse Use Cases

Users can freely prompt and define their own use cases with full flexibility—within the existing capabilities and boundaries of the AI model. See how the AURA Observer transforms daily operations in the videos below.

Continuous monitoring of pallet dwell times in staging and consolidation zones.

Automatic detection of collisions or fallen goods, linked to the exact storage location for rapid response.

Real-time visibility of movements and process flows enables monitoring of the correct sequence of storage and retrieval.

Identification of bottlenecks and capacity constraints through movement analyses and real-time heatmaps.

Detection of safety violations (e.g., missing PPE such as helmets) and early accident detection to improve occupational safety.
