Launch HN: Transload (YC P26) – Measuring freight items with CCTV
Nevertheless, this is awesome and I wish I'd built it :)
And yes, from there we expand to other industries such as fulfillment and manufacturing. Long term, we will be the CV layer for any warehouse running CCTV.
Questions: - what is the measurement precision?
- do you need calibration? How do you do it in production?
- what it is the root problem you are trying to solve?
- what is your hypothesis about your solution- quantitatively?
2) Not necessarily. Models like MapAnything/MoGe predict calibration params directly and GeoCalib is good for distortion coefficients. We still calibrate manually on-site, but mainly to validate these models actually hold up in real warehouses and collect our own calibration training data. We are confident the future is calibration-free.
3) carriers lose money every day because shippers understate dimensions and LTL is priced by volume. Every understated shipment is lost revenue. Thats the wedge we sre going after.
