Abstract

An example method includes: during a container load process, controlling a sensor assembly to capture sensor data depicting a container interior; detecting, from the sensor data, items in the container interior; determining, based on the detected items, first and second load process metrics associated with first and second targets; generating first and second normalized metrics based on the first and second load process metrics, and the first and second targets; obtaining a first weighting factor associated with the first load process metric, and a second weighting factor associated with the second load process metric; combining the first normalized metric and the first weighting factor, with the second normalized metric and the second weighting factor, to generate an aggregated load process metric; and transmitting a control command according to the aggregated load process metric; and rendering, at an indicator device, a load process state indicator according to the control command.
