Lahore College Launches AI‑Powered Unmanned Warehouse with Cloudpick in Pakistan

Customer Requirements

For educational institutions, managing daily supplies – from stationery and learning materials to snacks and essentials – is a constant operational challenge. Traditional campus stores and warehouses often struggle with long queues during peak hours, limited operating windows, manual inventory tracking, and high staffing costs.

Lahore College, one of Pakistan’s respected higher education institutions, recognized the need for a smarter approach. The college wanted to create a fully automated, self‑service warehouse where students and staff could access supplies quickly, without waiting in line or relying on staff assistance. The goal was to reduce operational friction, cut labor costs, and provide 24/7 availability – all while maintaining accurate inventory control.

Cloudpick Solution

Cloudpick deployed its AI‑powered unmanned warehouse solution at Lahore College. The system uses computer vision, deep learning, and multi‑sensor fusion to enable a fully automated, cashier‑less experience.

How it works:

• Entry: Authorized users enter by scanning a QR code, using facial recognition, or tapping a campus ID card.

• Selection: AI cameras and smart‑shelf sensors track every item picked up or returned in real time. Even if items are placed directly into a bag, the system accurately identifies and records them.

• Exit & billing: When users walk out, the system automatically generates the order and completes payment – no scanning, no checkout counter, no queuing.

The warehouse can be set up in as little as 5 hours by a single person, making deployment fast and cost‑effective. For operators, the system provides real‑time inventory tracking, automated restock alerts, and detailed usage analytics – transforming manual warehouse management into a fully digitized, data‑driven operation.

Result

Since deploying the Cloudpick unmanned warehouse, Lahore College has transformed its campus supply management.

Key outcomes:

• 24/7 availability: Students and staff can access supplies anytime – day or night, during holidays or between classes.

• Zero queues: No more waiting in line during peak hours. The grab‑and‑go model saves valuable time for everyone.

• Reduced labor costs: The warehouse operates without on‑site staff, significantly cutting operational expenses.

• Accurate inventory management: Real‑time tracking and automated alerts prevent stockouts and overstocking.

• Scalable model: The solution can be replicated across multiple campus locations or expanded to other institutional settings.

For Lahore College, this is more than a warehouse – it is a stepping stone toward a fully digital, cashless campus, aligning with Pakistan’s broader push for digital transformation in education.
