Meet the Arvist Tablet App 📱
What we shipped
The new Arvist Tablet App is a streamlined interface built around what operators do all day: launching inspections, tracking their status, and handling exceptions.
- Built for tablets and mobile devices, and installs as a web app with notifications and offline support
- Runs smoothly on small tablets that operators can keep right at their station
- Inspection launch, status tracking, and exception handling in one place
Why it matters
Operators on the warehouse floor rarely have time to walk back to a desktop to check on an inspection. Putting the essentials on the device already in their hand keeps exceptions moving and keeps the line from waiting on a screen somewhere else in the building.
Impact
- Faster response to exceptions on the floor
- Inspection status visible wherever the operator is
- Notifications that keep working even when connectivity drops
Faster inspections and more stations per server ⚡
What we shipped
A new, faster inspection model significantly increases how many stations a single Arvist server can support. An engineering breakthrough in how existing computing resources are used makes this possible. Inspection quality and accuracy hold steady, even with multiple ML models working together to detect, identify, and inspect products, and results stay near real-time as stations are added.
Why it matters
For a growing operation, every new station used to mean thinking about more hardware. With more stations running on the same server, expansion gets simpler and more cost-effective: less hardware, faster installation, and a lighter footprint on the warehouse floor. Coverage can grow as fast as the operation does.
Impact
- More stations supported per Arvist server
- Near real-time results maintained as stations scale
- One 3PL customer now runs 14 Arvist packing stations on a single server
Conveyor inspections that identify products without a label 🔄
What we shipped
Arvist conveyor inspections now identify products by their appearance, powered by Arvist’s proprietary product catalog and visual similarity AI. Products are recognized accurately even when a label is torn, damaged, missing, or facing away from the camera.
- Visual recognition works alongside label reading to maximize identification rates
- New products can be added from just one or two sample images, with no lengthy model retraining
- The catalog learns continuously as it sees more products
- Inspection results arrive in under a second
Why it matters
On a busy conveyor, labels get scuffed, folded, and turned the wrong way, and every one of those used to mean an item the system couldn’t account for. Identifying products on sight means every item gets counted without slowing the line or asking operators to stop and reorient cartons.
Impact
- Higher identification rates on the conveyor
- Fast SKU onboarding from a couple of sample images
- Sub-second inspection results with no added handling
Key Takeaways
- The Arvist Tablet App streamlines inspections, tracking, and exceptions for warehouse operators, with offline support and notifications.
- New inspection model allows a single Arvist server to support more stations, maintaining near real-time results during expansion.
- Arvist conveyor inspections identify products using visual similarity AI, even when labels are damaged or missing.
- Overall, Arvist enhances operational efficiency by reducing downtime and simplifying hardware requirements.
- Future updates will continue to improve performance; visit the Arvist Experience Center for more insights.
