Warehouse Cameras Now Do Double Duty as Freight Scanners

Transload, a Y Combinator startup, uses computer vision—software that interprets what cameras see—to measure freight dimensions from security cameras already on warehouse floors. This eliminates costly dedicated hardware. The pattern is spreading: industrial sites are mining existing infrastructure for insights rather than installing new sensors. For freight logistics, where incorrect weight-based billing costs billions annually, a software-only fix removes a major barrier to adoption.
