3D In-Truck Volume Detection
Transform logistics visibility with real-time capacity measurement, so trucks run fuller, routes are optimized, and joint delivery becomes possible.
Book DemoThe Problem
Most logistics inefficiency stems not from demand—but from the inability to see and act on actual truck capacity.
Capacity Is Still Estimated, Not Measured
Logistics companies, shippers, and 3PLs rely on human judgment to estimate order volume and available truck space. This leads to frequent overestimation or underestimation, making coordination unreliable.
No Historical Volume Data
Most companies do not retain accurate historical data on how much volume was actually loaded per route, per customer, or per time window. Optimization efforts are based on assumptions.
Limited Supply Chain Visibility
Companies lack visibility into where trucks are underloaded, which routes are poorly optimized, and how volume fluctuates by customer, lane, or time.
Joint Delivery Is Not Operationally Possible
Without real-time, trusted volume data shared across companies, capacity cannot be safely shared and coordination depends on calls and spreadsheets.
This results in:
Our Solution
LOGISTICAL's 3D In-Truck Volume Detection
A sensor-based system that makes capacity measurable in real time—capturing loaded volume, remaining space, and utilization rate.
How It Works
On-Truck 3D Volume Detection Sensor
A small, non-intrusive device installed inside the cargo area that captures the 3D shape of the load while the truck is driving. No manual input from drivers required.
- Captures 3D shape of load
- Works while driving
- No manual input needed
Instant Volume Calculation Algorithm
LOGISTICAL's proprietary algorithm uses known internal dimensions, subtracts detected cargo volume, and calculates exact available space in real time.
- Loaded volume
- Remaining capacity
- Utilization rate
Cloud Transmission & Data Processing
Volume data is securely transmitted to the cloud, where it becomes immediately usable for dashboards, historical analysis, and trend identification.
- Live dashboards
- Historical data storage
- Automatic trend analysis
Enable Optimization & Joint Delivery
With measurable capacity, trucks with spare space can be identified instantly and orders matched based on real available volume.
- Instant space identification
- Real-time order matching
- Safe partner sharing
What This Enables
Full Logistics Visibility
Companies gain a clear, data-driven view of actual load per truck, underutilized routes, and volume patterns by customer and lane.
Historical Volume Intelligence
Analyze which customers consistently underload trucks, where consolidation opportunities exist, and how volume changes over time.
Scalable Joint Delivery
With trusted, real-time volume data, capacity can be shared across companies, coordination becomes automated, and joint delivery scales.
Logistics Companies
Identify underutilized capacity and improve utilization per route
Shippers
Understand real shipment volume patterns and reduce delivery cost per order
3PLs
Coordinate multiple partners using shared, objective capacity data
Urban Delivery
Enable safe consolidation for high-frequency, low-volume routes

Typical Starting Point
Companies start by installing sensors on a pilot set of trucks to validate measurement accuracy and understand their current utilization patterns, before expanding into optimization or joint delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is 3D volume detection?+
A camera- and sensor-based technology that measures cargo and remaining space in a truck in real time, automatically calculating the load rate.
What does it tell me?+
It visualizes the current load rate and remaining capacity so you can see how much more can be loaded, improving load efficiency.
Can it be retrofitted to existing trucks?+
It is designed to be retrofittable. Details depend on the vehicle — please contact us or book a demo.
