As a supply chain manager, you face many challenges on a daily basis: Inventory Shrinkage (IS) is one of them. This phenomenon, which corresponds to the difference between theoretical and actual stock levels, generates considerable financial losses, seriously disrupts your supply chain, and even damages the reputation of your company and your teams. A recent study by the Conseil National de la Sécurité des Magasins revealed that shrink represents almost 1% of French retail sales, or several billion euros each year.
No worries though! EYESEE offers you an innovative solution to take control of your IS and optimize your operations.
IS is a complex problem that spares no industry: from pharmaceuticals to retail, all logistics activities are affected. But what are the causes?
Administrative errors
Damages
Theft
Process-related losses
Forgery
The consequences of inventory shrinkage are manifold and have a direct impact on your business:
Calculating the IS rate is essential to assess the extent of the problem within your company. This metric is calculated as follows:
IS rate = (Registered stock level – Actual stock level) / Registered stock level
By regularly monitoring your IS rate, you can implement corrective actions and measure their effectiveness.
To significantly reduce your SI, it is essential to implement actions targeted at the identified causes:

Every company, whatever its size or sector of activity, is required to take an inventory of its stock at least once a year. In addition to this legal obligation, stocktaking can meet other challenges throughout the supply chain: providing reliable financial indicators, improving overall company performance, improving the accuracy of inventory data, etc. To meet these challenges, a number of stocktaking techniques have been developed: originally manual (using binoculars and paper/pencil, for example), inventory can now be carried out using a barcode scanner, assisted or not by WMS-integrated inventory management software, and more recently, greatly optimized by the emergence of new technologies including RFID, weight sensors, AI solutions, drones, and inventory robots.
In this article, we’ll be focusing specifically on the inventory drone, how it works, its advantages and disadvantages for companies, and the selection criteria that may justify its application.
Contrary to popular belief, a drone is not necessarily a flying device. In reality, it is a flying or ground-based device, without a crew or pilot on board, and whose operation is fully automatic or remote-controlled.
Inventory drones incorporate advanced technologies such as sensors, high-resolution cameras, and sophisticated navigation systems to scan barcodes while navigating their environment. They are designed to optimize and automate inventory processes in various environments. Operating fully autonomously or semi-autonomously with the supervision of a logistics operator, they are equipped with cameras capable of reading barcodes (1D or 2D) or other merchandise identification systems (RFID, artificial intelligence, etc.) allowing them to collect information on stored units, their location or condition. The collected data is then transmitted and analyzed in inventory management or corrected directly in the warehouse management software (WMS).
Inventory drones can be used in various sectors, with storage requirements varying according to the type of material stored. Among these sectors, we will distinguish between indoor and outdoor environments, as well as specific storage modalities for which drone use seems relevant.
In warehouses: Inventory drones are particularly well-suited for logistics warehouses as they can perform rapid and accurate inventories of products that are sometimes stored high up or difficult to access. Several storage methods are possible, each with its own characteristics in terms of automating logistics inventory. Logistics warehouses have the advantage of being standardized controlled environments on an international scale, facilitating the deployment of automatic systems (drones or robots).
Agricultural greenhouses: Greenhouses, like warehouses, contain a large quantity of stock in production. Equipped with multispectral cameras and environmental sensors, drones can, for example, detect early water stress, deficiencies, or diseases, optimizing the quality and yield of harvests.
Hangars: Just like warehouses, the use of logistics drones in hangars can enable stocktaking of stored products, by identifying and locating units stored on the ground.
Silos: Equipped with LiDAR sensors or thermal imaging systems, flying or rolling drones can accurately monitor and measure the level of stored materials and the presence of contaminants.
While drones can be used in a multitude of outdoor environments, their use is particularly relevant in certain specific industries.
This is particularly the case for:
Other industries can greatly benefit from the use of inventory drones. These include the port, oil and gas, recycling and building and construction industries.
Inventory drones can adapt to a variety of storage methods, including:
Inventory drones offer many benefits to companies, not least in terms of overall improvement in financial and logistical performance, and staff safety. These benefits include:
Time and efficiency savings: drones can scan hundreds of products in just a few minutes (by way of comparison, with traditional methods, an operator scans an average of 1 location every 70 to 90 seconds).
Improving the accuracy of stock data: high-resolution cameras guarantee the reliability of scanned data. Drones also reduce human error (duplicates, omissions, etc.).
Enhanced employee safety: By flying up to several dozen meters, the use of inventory drones eliminates the need for logistics operators to work at heights or in dangerous areas (limiting the risk of falls or work accidents).
Cost reduction: The use of an inventory drone reduces the need for additional human resources, as well as the rental of heavy, expensive equipment (“aerial platforms”, forklift trucks). What’s more, the improved accuracy of inventory data has a direct impact on the company’s operational, and therefore financial, efficiency.
Less downtime: Annual stocktaking often requires several days’ downtime. As a much more efficient alternative to a traditional inventory, the inventory drone drastically reduces downtime (only 1 day’s interruption to scan 25,000 locations with the EYESEE drone). In some cases, when drone operation allows co-activity, no downtime is necessary.
Overall, the advantages of inventory drones often outweigh the disadvantages, especially for companies with large warehouses and large inventories. However, it is important for companies to carefully evaluate the costs and benefits before deciding to adopt this technology.
To choose your inventory drone, it is important to consider different selection criteria.
Warehouse size: The larger the warehouse, the more efficient the drone must be in terms of ease of implementation and speed, and it should not generate significant infrastructure costs (base, codes, beacons, etc.) to cover large distances and complete the inventory within a reasonable timeframe. It is therefore important to choose a drone that can fly for a sufficiently long time without infrastructure and fast enough to cover the entire warehouse within a reasonable timeframe.
Type of identification of logistical units: Inventory drones can be equipped with different types of sensors (barcode readers, Datamatrix, QR codes, RFID, etc.) to identify products. It is therefore important to choose a drone equipped with the type of sensor adapted to the logistical units used in the warehouse.
Possibility of implementing coexistence: The inventory drone must be able to operate safely and without disrupting other warehouse activities for too long, such as order picking or pallet movement.
Type of storage of stored logistical units: Goods stored on the ground, stacked, stored in high racks, one or more deep, or on accumulation racks do not require the same control methods. Some types of storage complicate controls or may require specific sensors or cameras to be properly identified.
Storage height: The drone must be able to access products stored at height, which may require the use of drones equipped with tilting cameras or precise positioning systems to keep the drone at the correct height.
As you can understand, the best inventory drone solution will depend on your environment, your traceability system, and the type of units stored.
We have chosen to offer a semi-autonomous, lightweight solution that can be easily adapted to pallet racks, without any infrastructure.

Every year, companies embark on the tedious task of conducting warehouse inventory, and counting all their stocks. While necessary, this process can be time-consuming. There are various types of inventories, each with different goals, ranging from basic stock control to more specific measures like label errors, product defects, or quantity discrepancies.
But which inventory method is suitable for your needs? Find out more about the different types of inventory and their purpose.
Initial warehouse inventory is taken at the start of the business or year, before stock additions and purchases. In contrast, the final stocktaking is done at the end of the fiscal year, to determine remaining assets, sales and the impact of commercial activities.
There are 4 types of inventories based on the frequency at which they are conducted:
Annual fiscal inventory: This is used to confirm activity and accounting inventory, and is conducted once a year. This is a time-consuming inventory, since all stock references are counted in a short space of time. Generally speaking, the company has to put its business on pause for several days and mobilize many of its employees, even recruiting additional staff to complete the core workforce. It’s an inventory that requires thorough preparation and a lot of organization. This type of inventory also has a significant direct cost (material and staff mobilized) and indirect cost (cost of business interruption).
Periodic inventory count: Conducted several times a year, covering all stocked references.
Cycle count: Regularly counting groups of references and products stored throughout the year, at defined periods. It enables you to prioritize the counting of certain references (according to their value, volume, turnover rate, etc.). It is scheduled periodically, reducing the workload compared with an annual inventory. As it only concerns certain parts of the warehouse, there’s generally no need to suspend activity, and available stock quantities can be updated more regularly. This type of logistics inventory count is less time-consuming and more flexible, but it does require upstream organization and a great deal of discipline. In addition, this type of inventory count enables each location or part number to be checked more than once, thus increasing the quality of stock data.
For this type of inventory, products are classified into different categories, so that they can be inventoried separately. Although not the most widespread, this type of inventory can be useful, since the storage system or movements of different products will differ from one category to another. These inventories include:
Depending on how your warehouse is organized, some areas are often organized by function (as may be the case for in-transit or reserve stocks) rather than by product type. In such cases, it may be appropriate to use an inventory that focuses on the function of the goods, rather than their type. In this case, inventories may be considered for :
Stock in transit, refers to goods in transit between the warehouse, the supplier, and the company (goods which have been ordered and are about to be dispatched). Depending on the volume of business and the flow of goods, it can sometimes exceed warehouse stock.
Reserve or safety stock is intended to prevent stock shortages (due to supplier delays, internal malfunctions, variations in demand or economic conditions).
Lastly, decoupling stock is used to differentiate between logistics inventory before and after production, by measuring the rate of goods sold out.
There are a multitude of other types of inventory that can be used to address specific issues or provide business-specific metrics. These include, for example, the inventory of inactive, dead or lost stock (which makes it possible to reference products that cannot be marketed for various reasons: expiration date, deterioration, defective product, etc.); the inventory of available stock (products that can enter directly into the sales cycle).
The choice of inventory method to be adopted is largely influenced by the nature of the company and the particularities of its operations. Each company will choose its type of inventory to match the issues and constraints of its business and the resources at its disposal. It is therefore essential to understand operational needs to ensure optimal inventory management.
First of all, ask yourself what the main objective of this inventory is. Is it primarily to address accounting concerns, to ensure inventory accuracy, or to meet other specific business needs?
For example, in a logistics warehouse with a high flow of goods and a large volume of part numbers, it may be worthwhile to set up a permanent inventory, as the volume of activity is likely to generate numerous stock errors. On the other hand, a small warehouse with few references and few flows may be satisfied with an annual or periodic inventory, as its activity is limited.
Combining several logistical inventory methodologies to meet different objectives is also a common practice. For example, keeping an annual physical inventory combined with a cycle counting inventory of all or part of your stock may be a good way of meeting the challenges of closing financial accounts and ensuring stock quality, a requirement with an operational purpose.
Although there are many different types of warehouse inventory, the main aim of each method is to optimize storage and inventory management and maximize the profitability of operations. With this in mind, the automation of inventory control appears to be an essential solution for increasing efficiency and productivity.
In addition to its accuracy, automation reduces the labor costs involved in logistical inventories (fewer work-related accidents, higher productivity), and provides better inventory visibility.
There are many automation solutions, including:
Our EYESEE drone inventory solution is designed to simplify and optimize inventory processes, with a particular focus on cycle counts. Its core operation is based on counting locations and reading barcode labels. It is specially designed for accurate counting of SKUS in filmed and complete pallets.
Its light weight and infrastructure-free autonomy mean it can be used efficiently aisle after aisle, scanning around 500 locations per hour, making it suitable for both annual physical inventories (using several drones in parallel) and cycle counts (with a single drone). The ability to operate at heights of up to 20 meters also simplifies internal organization. There’s no need to book or hire scissor lifts to scan high locations, making it a practical solution that’s easy to integrate into cycle counting operations.

Effective inventory management is a crucial pillar of the supply chain, directly influencing the profitability and efficiency of operations. At the core of this management is the obligation to conduct an annual stock inventory to substantiate, from a tax perspective, the accuracy of the evaluation of the assets and liabilities of the company’s heritage.
Beyond this regulatory necessity, stock inventory serves primarily to generate various performance indicators to optimize the supply chain effectively.
To meet this legal requirement, businesses have the option to choose from several inventory methods, each presenting its own advantages and disadvantages: annual inventory, cycle counting inventory, periodic inventory, or perpetual inventory.
But, what is cycle counting? What is its role, its advantages? How can it be implemented to optimize your operations?
The annual inventory is an inventory conducted 1 to 2 times a year, often close to the end of the financial statement period. It involves taking stock of all inventory in a warehouse and is considered the traditional inventory method.
Conducting an annual inventory can be a good choice for businesses with limited stock or whose operations can be temporarily halted without significant disruption. During an annual inventory, the entire stock must be scanned in a short period, often requiring a complete interruption of all logistical activities and the allocation of significant financial resources (such as renting lifts, mobilizing personnel, etc.).
To audit the entirety of an inventory in a medium-sized warehouse (18,500m²), with an average of 120 locations scanned per hour, it would require:
On the contrary, cycle counting, by segmenting inventory activities, allows for partial inventories of the warehouse throughout the year, ensuring the continuity of logistical activities. Requiring annual planning, it particularly enhances the performance of the logistics warehouse by:
These two approaches can complement or substitute each other: many companies implement cycle counting in addition to an annual physical inventory to have complete control over their inventory process. It’s also possible to replace the legal annual inventory with cycle counting. In this case, the inventory procedure must be validated by an auditor who ensures the reliability of the implemented inventory process.
You’ve made the decision to implement cycle counting as a complement or replacement for your traditional inventory processes! What are the different methods and steps to ensure the effectiveness of your cycle counting?
The implementation of a cycle counting requires thorough planning. To establish a reliable and effective procedure, it is essential to consider:
Number of References: Determine in advance how many references are stored in the logistics warehouse. Among these references, you can identify, for example, the number of high-value products, products that require more frequent verification, or products based on their location (references stored at height or in picking areas).
Available Resources for Inventory: Estimate the number of employees and the time they can allocate to stock counting.
Time Windows for Cycle Counting: Depending on the industry, certain time frames may be more suitable for cycle counting, such as late afternoon when the bulk of the day’s logistic flow has passed.
Counting Frequency: Evaluate how often you want to check your stock references.
To enhance stock control, you can employ different cycle counting methods, such as:
ABC Counting: Based on the Pareto principle (20% of references represent 80% of sales), this is one of the most commonly used techniques. Products are classified into different categories: Category A items represent references that generate a significant portion of revenue, Category B items account for 25% of references and 10% of revenue, etc. Categories can be defined based on sales volume or the market value of products. Subsequently, the counting frequency for different categories needs to be determined (counting high-volume or high-value products may be beneficial as these references have the most impact on business).
Counting by Physical Area: Independently of references, the warehouse is divided into several zones (e.g., aisles). The counter is responsible for checking all references in their assigned zone.
Control Group: Involves counting a small group of references multiple times over a very short period to reveal errors in counting techniques.
Random Sampling: Random selection of several references to be counted. This counting can be done daily to ensure the reliability of the stock.
Most companies combine these methods in a hybrid approach to achieve the most accurate results possible.
Implementing a cycle counting process can be tedious: automating all or part of your process can significantly improve inventory accuracy and enable you to generate reliable indicators.
Moreover, in addition to its precision, automation can also help reduce labor costs (fewer workplace accidents, increased productivity) and ensure better visibility into the state of your stocks.
Various solutions are available to automate your inventory, including:
We have designed the EYESEE inventory drone solution to streamline and enhance inventory processes, particularly cycle counting.
Its primary operation is based on physical area counting (although reconnaissance missions are possible) of full SKUs (wrapped and complete pallets).
Due to its lightweight design and infrastructure-free operation, it can be moved from aisle to aisle and can scan an average of 500 locations per hour. Therefore, its use is suitable for both annual fiscal inventory and cycle counting.
Its capability to operate up to 20 meters in height also facilitates internal organization: there is no need to reserve or rent lifts to scan high locations, making it particularly easy to use in concurrent activities and, thus, in cycle counting.
Several users of the EYESEE solution have transitioned their internal processes to cycle counting. If you would like to discover all the benefits of implementing an EYESEE drone, feel free to contact our teams or fill out the form below to assess the eligibility of your logistics site.
Grenoble, September 28, 2023 – DARWIN DRONES, an inventory company dedicated to the marketing, support and software development of the EYESEE solution for the logistics market, has just completed its first study in collaboration with ADEME.
Already committed internally to a proactive CSR approach, the company has decided to continue its efforts and has initiated an initial diagnosis to analyze the environmental performance of its solution in order to define development priorities.
« Premiers pas éco-conception » project conducted during this life cycle assesment focuses on two phases : first, the transportation phase of the equipment to the inventory location, and then the usage phase (primarily the energy consumed during the inventory).
The initial results are encouraging : the study confirms that the EYESEE solution has a lower environmental impact compared to traditional inventory methods (up to 4 times more efficient).
Eric Pierrel, president of the inventory company Darwin Drones, is pleased with these initial results, convinced that the future of logistics lies in reducing its environmental impact through automation and intelligent inventory management :
« The logistics sector currently represents 10% of the national GDP, with a turnover of 200 billion euros and employing 1.8 million people in France. It is a vital organ for the functioning of our society. Unfortunately, it is also a sector with a significant environmental impact. Being able to contribute, on ours cale, to a reduction in our carbon footprint is already a victory, and we are committed to continuing our efforts in this direction ».
There is no doubt that this initial approach will directly interest the end customers of Darwin Drones as the results provide decision-making keys to choose the most suitable solution to address the environmental challenges of their logistics chains.
Logistics in motion
This action is part of the broader transformation of the logistics industry. In recent years, the sector has been increasing its efforts towards greater energy efficiency.
France Logistique has developed an CSR framework for the transport and logistics sector to assist them in implementing an CSR policy. Additionally, they have created a charter of mutual commitments comprising about thirty commitments to accelerate the contribution of logistics real estate to ecological transition and economic recovery.
In 2024, Darwin Drones plans to further develop its CSR initiatives by conducting new comprehensive impact assessments to continue its growth while ensuring the environmental cohérence of its activities.

In this interview, Eric Pierrel, President and co-founder of Darwin Drones the inventory company, tells us about EYESEE’s successes since the beginning of 2023.
Can you tell us more about the first successes since the last fundraising?
“Since the last fundraising, the EYESEE drone inventory solution has been deployed at many customers such as CNHI (Iveco), Aptar, GKN Driveline, or BM Stores…
Our historical customers have also upgraded to the latest version of the solution, such as DB Schenker, Renault Trucks, Le Roy Logistique, Caterpillar…
Our partnership with Hardis Group also continues (events, press, content).
Being part of the global improvement of the operational efficiency of the logistics world also means being visible in the showrooms of consulting companies and for this reason, we have installed two drones at Stratégies & Co (PwC) and Deloitte in Canada”.
What are the priorities and objectives of the EYESEE inventory company for 2023?
“With this latest fundraising, the challenge is to accelerate EYESEE commercially and operationally, both by continuing to serve historical customers to help them benefit from the solution and by supporting new customers in improving their operational efficiency.
In technical terms, the challenges of the coming months are both to improve the drone solution itself, and in particular its reading speed and ease of use. On the other hand, we are investing in the improvement of the Cloud part of the solution to facilitate the analysis of the inventory data collected by the drone via the implementation of dashboards.
Beyond the historical commercial deployment of the solution, we are starting to structure our international approach by identifying local partners for our customers. These include:
IT Genetics in Romania, Checklist Do Brasil in Brazil, Quotes4drones in England.”
What are the dates to remember for this new year?
“This year has started off on a high note with many events.
Like every year, we participated in the SITL (Transport and Logistics Innovation Week).
This year was also marked by the organization of a Roadshow in the AFTRAL centers of France (training centers in transport and logistics). Several demonstrations took place in Grenoble, Moulins, Saint Quentin Fallavier, Chambéry, Valence, Arnas & Montpellier. EYESEE continues its tour of France with several demos scheduled including one on June 20th at AFTRAL Nice.
We will also have the opportunity to present EYESEE at the Modernlog exhibition, on May 30 and 31 in Poznań (Poland) on the stand of our partner Hardis Group Polska.
Other events in France and internationally are planned for the second half of 2023.
Are you planning to implement a CSR approach?
” Yes, for the last few months, we have been working on an analysis of the life cycle of the EYESEE solution versus the traditional solution (inventory with cradles). In this context, we have responded to several calls for projects and we are the winners of the EETE call for projects “Entreprises Engagées pour la Transition Écologique” (Companies Committed to Ecological Transition) supported by ADEME.
We are also laureate of the call for innovative projects of the Club Déméter, dedicated to the development of supply chain solutions integrating CSR issues as well as nominated for the Agora Awards Supply Chain 2023 in the category “Best company of the year in the field of Intralogistics”.
Before the end of the year, we will be able to propose a detailed report on the environmental gains offered by the EYESEE solution with precise data and field analysis.
EYESEE is delighted to have participated in the Vertical Forum 2023 at the Swiss Aeropôle in Payerne. On this occasion, many companies were present to discuss the professional use of drones (logistics, construction, agriculture, security, audiovisual, civil engineering, urbanism & real estate).
Thanks to Stanley Schmitt, director of Vertical Master (Training and Consulting) for the opportunity.
The objective of Vertical Forum is to create a meeting place between manufacturers, operators and regulators of all types of drones through presentations and demos.
The 2023 edition was very successful with a good audience, the presence of Swiss media (RTS) and especially drone actors from the three linguistic regions of the country.
“Vertical Master had been planning for several months to explore the segment of drone use in logistics. This segment is not yet well known by drone players who are more on inspection or mapping. EYESEE Inventory Drone, with its very innovative solution, seemed to us to be the ideal candidate to enter the logistics world” explains Stanley Schmitt.
