Colruyt Group Smart Innovation

🚀🚀 STILL BeNeLux wins ID Logistics Benelux Innovation Award in the SIX Challenge 2024 with Self-Driving Vehicle (SDV) co-engineered with Smart Innovation, which has been recognized as a top solution in the rapidly evolving logistics sector. STILL's SDV distinguished itself from the competition with its advanced integration of autonomous navigation technology and AI-driven decision-making. The SDV, which uses 3D Visual SLAM and Advanced Obstacle Avoidance, is the result of a collaboration between STILL and the Colruyt Group's Smart Technics, combining their expertise in hardware and software development. This was possible thanks to the support of VLAIO.

Stay tuned for more updates! Did you know that yellow peas are a key plant-based protein source used in vegetarian meat alternatives? 🌱 Despite recent storms knocking over our yellow pea plants, we successfully completed the harvest with minimal losses, thanks to our dedicated team! #crops #farming #plantbased #agriculture #sustainability #innovation

🚀🚀 Did you know we have a large warehouse where diverse items like technical- and construction materials from the stores are being returned? We've implemented AI technology, including Google Lens, to streamline the return process. This innovative approach has significantly improved the handling of all these diverse items, ensuring they flow back into our inventory with remarkable efficiency. 🔎 #Innovation #AILogistics #WarehouseManagement #googlelens #efficiency

🚀🚀Anchors Down, Capacity Up! ⚓   🌊After a first successful mussel harvest last year and with the second harvest currently ongoing, we are thrilled to announce that the construction of the second phase of our mussel farm has started! 🚀 This will more than double our capacity and production within our current sea farm area. In a first step, 200 mooring lines will be installed which will be drilled into the seabed with screw anchor technology.   #ScrewAnchors #Seafood #Aquaculture #Seafarm #Belgian #Mussels #Technology #Production

🚀🚀 At Colruyt France we augmented the safety around high-risk workstations in our waste facility plant. We developed a computer vision system that can check if safety measures are being followed. If anyone isn’t wearing the required safety jacket or if the area around the conveyor belt becomes too crowded an alarm is set and a message is being shown on a dashboard in real-time. Because alerts are timestamped and counted, the company can monitor and improve their safety KPIs over time! #computervision #ColruytFrance #Safty #data
