Cordes & Simon in production with an integrated video and location system

Providing a step change in quality management - delivered by eseg and Ubisense.

Dortmund – 13. Aug 2007 – Since going into production on 9th July 2007 at their site in Villingen-Schwenningen, Germany, Cordes & Simon, the international logistics company, is able to precisely document the progress of all shipments using an integrated video, bar-code and location system. The solution is able to capture in real-time the status of all goods in the 5,000 m2 facility, providing the capability to present the information related to any shipment at any instant in the past at the press of a button.

"The high precision of the Ubisense real-time location system enables the position of the shipments to be stored to an accuracy of 15cm at the moment they are scanned. This position can then be related to camera pictures, often from several different camera locations, to provide automatically a record of shipment number, time and visual documentation", explains Uwe Knickmeier, the Ubisense project manager.
