Dreamed about software being used to determine the most efficient way to pack items into boxes. It was based on either analyzing video of the products or 3D scanning everything that entered the warehouse. Amazon.com was using it in fulfillment centers. All the humans did was move items from the shelf to a box the computer selected & where in the box the computer said to put them.

Lions don't believe any such system exists. Workers currently pick the box by eye & pack it by eye. Random variations in packaging might make it impractical to prescan items when they enter the warehouse, so workers would need to scan the dimensions of every item in an order, then the computer would pick the box.

Making the scanning process fast & transparent would be a good machine vision problem.
