How a US Logistics Company Uses LY-H6-G330P Global Shutter PTZ Camera for OCR Reading of Shipping Labels in Motion
1. Customer Background
A US-based logistics automation company is developing an OCR-based system for real-time shipping label recognition in warehouse environments.
The system is designed to read labels and barcodes on moving packages without stopping conveyor operations.
2. Challenge
The customer’s previous imaging systems suffered from:
- Motion blur during high-speed conveyor movement
- Unreadable OCR results due to rolling shutter distortion
- Low recognition accuracy for barcodes and shipping labels
- Lack of optical zoom flexibility for different conveyor distances
- Difficulty maintaining consistent image quality under motion
These limitations reduced automation efficiency and throughput.
3. Solution
The customer tested the LOYALTY-SECU LY-H6-G330P Global Shutter PTZ Camera, featuring:
- Global Shutter CMOS Sensor – Ensures zero distortion during motion capture
- 3MP HD Resolution (2048×1536) – Delivers clear label details for OCR engines
- High Frame Rate (60FPS / 50FPS) – Stable capture of fast-moving parcels
- 30X Optical Zoom (5.4–162mm) – Flexible installation across warehouse distances
- Ultra High-Speed PTZ (Up to 240°/s) – Real-time tracking of moving objects
- WDR Technology – Handles complex warehouse lighting conditions
- PoE++ Support – Simplified deployment in large-scale logistics systems
4. Why Works for OCR in Motion
OCR systems require:
- Sharp edges
- No motion blur
- High contrast readability
- Stable frame consistency
The global shutter architecture ensures all pixels are captured at the same time, enabling accurate recognition of labels and barcodes even during movement.
Combined with 30X optical zoom, the system can adapt to different conveyor widths and installation heights.
5. Result
After initial testing, the customer confirmed:
- Successful OCR reading on moving conveyor belts
- Significant improvement in barcode recognition accuracy
- Stable image captured during continuous motion
- Reduced need to slow down conveyor systems
- Improved overall automation efficiency
The system is now being evaluated for integration into production warehouse environments.
6. Customer Feedback
“I need to test your cameras ASAP. You are the only ones with a global shutter, motorized optical zoom, software PTZ control in one integrated weatherproof unit. I need this for my product line. I do automated OCR reading of static shipping labels. But now I need to do it in motion.”
