A cage of high-value goods leaves the aisle for a restricted area
Afternoon shift in the warehouse. An operator in a yellow safety vest is pulling a wheeled cage on his own, a wooden pallet with four white boxes on top, and heading for the corridor at the back, the one behind the blue partition that isn’t part of the picking route. At the end of that corridor there’s a closed door. Three other people are working in the hall, none of them with the load. IRIS sees the cage cross the yellow line and where it goes next.

- striped post marking the zone boundary
What this camera measures
An alert says something’s happening. The reading says how much.
- 4Boxes on the cage
- 18:47Time it crossed the line
- 2 min 10 sTime inside the aisle
- 0People escorting the load
- 4People in frame
The figures on this screen are an example from the illustration, not any client’s measurement.
The rule
You decide once. IRIS applies it always.
If
a load from the high-value area crosses into the restricted aisle off the authorized route
Then
- alert the warehouse manager with the camera and the time of the crossing
- save the video of the run from the moment the load left its zone
- open a report with the picture of the load and the point where it crossed
The instruction that set it up«Alert me if a cage from the high-value area goes into the restricted aisle, and save me the whole run.»
What changes
What changes for whoever answers for the plant
Weeks later, in a inventory count that doesn’t add up, and by then there’s no video left to look at: that’s how an internal diversion comes to light today. With the camera, the warehouse manager knows what time a flagged load left its route and where it went, with the video of the trip. Most of the time there will be an ordinary explanation — a rush order, a free space behind the partition — and the matter is closed in a minute. The ones without an explanation stop getting lost along the way.
What people usually ask
Does IRIS say this is a theft?
No, and it shouldn’t. IRIS sees a fact: a flagged load has left its route and gone into an area it doesn’t belong in. Most of the time there will be an ordinary reason. Whoever watches the video decides what happened. The camera contributes the time, the picture and the route, never a conclusion.
Does it identify the operator moving it?
No. IRIS does not recognize faces and does not match them against any database. It detects situations: “a cage has crossed into the restricted aisle,” not who is moving it. If the site needs to know, it cross-checks its own access and shift records, under whatever permissions it has set.
How does the camera know which load is high-value?
Because the site flags it, not the camera. You define the zone that product comes out of and the route it is supposed to take. IRIS watches that line. What counts as sensitive stock and which route is the right one is decided by whoever runs the warehouse, and it changes the day the operation changes.

A different case every time
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
- It lands in the tray
- You open it
- You confirm or dismiss
Next step
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.
What does an airport see before the line forms?
14 cases: 7 raise an alert when something happens and 7 only measure. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.
And the best part
You can’t describe a line with a sentence.You have to draw it on the image.
Asking is for finding. Counting is for measuring. And they aren’t done the same way. That’s why the number comes out the same every day, and why people counting is approved by the Centro Español de Metrología — Spain’s national metrology institute. It’s a Spanish approval and it isn’t equivalent to any U.S. certification.
