A cage goes out through the wrong door
Late afternoon in the warehouse. Someone is pushing a pallet jack carrying a wire cage full of boxes down the central aisle, toward the open dock door where a white truck is waiting. On the right, two colleagues with a tablet are checking another despatch. Behind them a forklift works between the racks. That door isn’t the exit for this route, and there’s no outbound order open for that cage. IRIS sees it while it’s happening.

The rule
You decide once. IRIS applies it always.
If
a cage or a pallet crosses a dock door with no outbound order open for those goods
Then
- alert the warehouse manager with the camera, the door and the time
- save the video from the cage leaving its aisle to the moment it crossed the door
- leave the alert in the shift log with the image attached
The instruction that set it up«Tell me when a cage or a pallet goes out through a door that is not the one for its route and there is no outbound order open for those goods.»
What changes
What changes for whoever answers for the plant
Stocktake day, at the end of the month: the shortage shows up and there’s nobody left to ask. The cage went out through a dock door at seven thirty in the evening, weeks earlier, and today there’s no way of knowing that. With the camera, the warehouse manager has the exact time, the door the cage crossed and the video of the whole route. So the discrepancy stops being an end-of-month mystery: it becomes a fact with a minute and a camera, one that can be cleared up with the shift the same day, while they still remember.
What people usually ask
Does IRIS say this is a theft?
No. IRIS does not judge intent and does not identify anyone. It sees one concrete fact: a cage crossed a dock door and there’s no outbound order open for those goods. It may be a routing mistake, a rush job nobody wrote down, or something worse. A person decides what happened, with the video and the exact time in front of them.
Do you need a camera on every door?
Not on all of them, but on every exit you want to watch. The rule is written door by door: which are for despatch, which are for staff, and which goods should never cross at all. The warehouse decides that, not the camera. Two or three well-chosen doors usually cover most of the real goods traffic.
Does it replace the warehouse management system?
No. The management system knows what should leave, when and through which door. The camera sees what actually left and where. IRIS works alongside it: it supplies the image and the exact minute so the two can be compared. When the paperwork and the footage agree, nothing happens. When they don’t, somebody takes a look.

See it for yourself
Watch what happens. Then watch what IRIS does with it.
Not a recorded video and not a drawing: it’s a summary of the real tool, with a different case each time round. The whole tool doesn’t fit in a box.
- The alert fires
- You open it
- You confirm or dismiss
Next step
How long does it take to find a hand played two hours ago?
12 cases: 9 raise an alert when something happens and 3 only measure. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.
What does a mall see beyond the visitor count?
12 cases: 4 raise an alert when something happens and 8 only measure. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.
And the best part
A wall of monitors is impressive.Nobody can read forty tiles at once.
The more tiles there are, the less each one gets looked at. IRIS watches all four thousand cameras at once and points at a single one: the one that needs someone right now.
