Position Imaging Launches “Intelligent Logistics” Podcast Series

Podcast Covers Innovative Strategies for Last Mile Package Deliveries

Position Imaging Launches “Intelligent Logistics” Podcast Series

STRATHAM, NH – September 22, 2021 – Position Imaging, Inc, a pioneer in omnichannel logistics fulfillment and asset tracking, today announced the company has launched a new podcast series titled “Intelligent Logistics,” now available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. The informative podcast will delve into how technology is elevating customer/resident package reception and return satisfaction through computer vision and machine learning techniques. It will also cover the logistical benefits retail and multifamily property owners are receiving by utilizing these advanced technologies.

The COVID-19 pandemic forced property and retail establishments to think creatively. Now there is a heightened resident and consumer expectation for seamless, contactless, self-service package delivery and pickup. However, the technologies to support these expectations range from overly complicated and expensive to not being flexible enough to accommodate large package sizes or other challenges unique to a location. Position Imaging’s podcast series will take a vendor-agnostic dive into rapidly evolving technology, customer expectations, and trends to address questions such as:


What are intelligent logistics, and how can organizations implement this advanced strategy for keeping pace with a rapidly advancing world?
How can multifamily property and other facility owners, catering to a large population of people, meet new contactless expectations?
What are today’s best, evolving technologies driving consumer expectations and also enhancing shopper loyalty?
What are the latest trends in the way people research, rent, buy, sell and manage properties?

“These new technologies have applications up and down the supply chain, from manufacturing to last-mile delivery to retail storefronts, and there is a lot of confusion over what is actually real and available,” said Ned Hill, founder, and CEO of Position Imaging. “Our podcast will look into many examples of intelligent logistics impacting the way our society moves goods. The examples will represent a new wave of smart innovations that help people engage in simple, automated, contactless, and reliable merchandise and package interactions.”

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.

How green is your glue?

If you’re looking to make the packaging process more eco-friendly, the obvious place to start is with the box itself. And that’s exactly what Salt Lake City-based Packsize did when it made its initial foray into sustainable packaging back in 2002. That year, the company launched its first product, an innovative on-demand packaging system designed to reduce cardboard waste (and the need for filler material) by creating a right-sized box for each shipment.

Now the company is ready for the next step: greening up the glue.
