Logistics and supply chain are very important modern economic activities. Many companies are faced with the problem of how to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and improve supply chain service quality. Currently, people are already exploring how to automate the transportation process and management through emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things. Logistics management systems (CVMS) based on computer vision technology can help companies better improve the efficiency and quality of the transportation process, thereby reducing transportation costs. Currently, there are many technical problems in the logistics industry, such as: image acquisition equipment, image processing, machine learning algorithms, autonomous driving, intelligent collaborative systems, etc. And CVMS based on computer vision can provide a solution. Therefore, this article will introduce the research progress of CVMS based on computer vision and analyze its application prospects in the logistics field.
2. Explanation of basic concepts and terms
2.1 Introduction to CVMS
CVMS (Computer Vision Management System) is a management system based on computer vision. It is an engineering technology that uses computer vision technology for intelligent management. It allows business managers to grasp information on product production, warehousing, transportation and other aspects in real time, accurately and promptly through technical means such as cameras, cloud servers, machine learning algorithms and databases, and formulate effective management strategies based on this information. Its main features are as follows:
- Use computer vision technology for intelligent management: CVMS uses advanced computer vision technology in image collection, processing, detection, recognition, etc., to improve work efficiency, precision and accuracy by analyzing on-site conditions.
- Based on the cloud: Because CVMS can span different regions, it is not limited by network bandwidth, and can communicate directly with the cloud server, so it has better response speed and transmission speed.
- Provide complete management solutions: CVMS provides complete management tools, including data collection, data processing, intelligent decision-making, automatic control, visual display, fault diagnosis and alarm functions, etc. It can also provide remote management functions through the Internet and mobile terminals, allowing managers to control logistics activities at any time.
