Volume measurement of bulk material with LiDAR

OWL EYE® – MONITORING

The Owl Eye Monitoring System is a system for permanent and precise volume measurement of bulk materials for continuous inventory. High-precision LiDAR sensors are installed in your storage facilities and survey your bulk material in 3D. The Owl Eye is a complete package for fully automated inventory of bulk stockpiles of any size. The data is recorded on a time-controlled basis and stored in an integrated database. Third-party systems such as SAP can control the Owl Eye and access the data at any time.

Stockpile Monitoring System

The network of LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) sensors enables high-precision, minute-by-minute time-controlled monitoring of your bulk material inventory according to individual schedules or on demand. With the use of high-end LiDAR sensors, we rely on proven and innovative laser technology, which makes it possible to take into account the smallest details during inventory recording.

Improvement

Guesses and counts lead to an inaccurate inventory evaluation. False estimations are extended from the cradle to the grave. Our fully automated Stockpile Monitoring System helps you to keep continuous track of your inventory.

The OWL EYE® sees everything. Keep an eye on your bulk material stocks!

OWL EYE® Dashboard

The multi-sensor capable Owl Eye Monitoring System watches over the stock in your warehouses like with the eyes of an owl. Use real-time data from various laser sensors or import your own 3D data from external devices. For example, you can use data from a terrestrial laser scanner from an I-Phone or from an aerial photography drone.

Owl Eye based on a very user-friendly and intuitive web-based application for automated evaluation of your bulk material inventory. The data from the sensors is downloaded and evaluated fully automatically. Individually marked storage areas such as individual bulk boxes or large open storage areas can be drawn in separately depending on their shape and size. Owl Eye cuts out the marked areas independently. The smart filters and evaluation algorithms can be parameterized individually for each marked area. The data is stored in a database and made available via common interfaces.

Supply Chain Management

Safety stock is tied-up capital and causes high storage costs due to required space, inappropriate space layout and multiple handling. Inaccuracies in inventory lead to high capital commitment or outage costs due to under or overstocking. With our Owl Eye Monitoring System, you no longer make production, purchasing, and sales decisions based on estimates, and you avoid costly transmission errors caused by non-digital data collection. In addition to saving an annual survey, you can optimize general processes based on facts, assign raw material directly to a product, and control the quality of your bulk material and production. The permanent inventory avoids surprises at the year-end closing.

Warehouse 4.0

It is essential to think digitization holistically. Our Owl Eye Monitoring System for determining the volume of bulk material is your step towards a digital warehouse.

Digital data logging of storage and production information is indispensable in the future and offers vast advantages:

Decision making

based on facts instead of guesses

Controlled

process optimization

Seamless data streams

without data transmission errors

Reduction

No manual inventory surveys, reduction of capital tied up in safety stock, reduction of warehouse space
