Prime Vision – Flow Projector Redesign
Prime Vision’s redesign shows how smarter hardware can lower energy use, reduce emissions, and make logistics more accessible for everyone.
Category: Circularity and Waste
Prime Vision has redesigned its Flow Projector, a smart solution that projects sorting numbers directly onto parcels using lasers, reducing manual labor and boosting efficiency. The new version cuts energy consumption to just one-third of the original model and weighs over 50% less, lowering material use, transport emissions, and installation impact.
Environmental impact
By switching to more efficient components and adding a smart sleep mode, the Flow Projector drastically reduces energy use during operation. The lighter design also minimizes environmental impact during production and shipping. Despite challenges like passive cooling, the team succeeded in reducing both weight and power use—while maintaining top performance.
Societal impact
With a smaller and more ergonomic design, the Flow Projector is easier to install and operate. This opens up opportunities for people who may face physical or technical barriers. Its intuitive interface supports diverse teams, including temporary staff, making parcel sorting more inclusive and accessible.
We're proud to showcase this powerful example of sustainable tech that transforms everyday operations—making them greener, smarter, and more inclusive.
