Summary of Innovation

xDIM is a modern, multi-method mobile dimensioning system that quickly and accurately captures dimensions of standard and oversized boxes, irregular items, small items and pallets, from anywhere in the distribution center or warehouse. Harnessing the power of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, this portable system enables a more efficient, seamless, less-time consuming workflow with the ability to acquire all necessary item data including dimensions, weights and picture at the product location, rather than bringing items to-and-from stationary dimensioning systems.

xDIM replaces the outdated practice of gathering dimensions at designated stationary units in the warehouse. The software enables a new workflow that was once thought to be impossible – capturing dimensions at the product’s location, even from an order picking lift at the highest level of shelving. There is no longer a need to pull each product and take it to-and-from a stationary dimensioner, which is often a time consuming, inefficient and frustrating process. xDIM increases worker mobility and agility, improves revenue, reduces costs and optimizes storage space.

Innovation Statement

xDIM Mobile enables an entirely new workflow, with the ability to capture all necessary data including dimensions, weights and pictures at the product location, even at the upper levels of the shelving. After success with box dimensioning, from 3-inches to 8-feet, xDIM has evolved, now offering options for irregular items as well as pallets.

Applicability

xDIM offers a comprehensive solution for warehouses and distribution centers by capturing all relevant item data in one application using a single system, delivering significant time savings with its full mobility, and reducing shipping surcharges through reliable and accurate dimensional data.
