AW3 provides a shared interface for device connections, algorithm configuration, licensing and communications for pallet docking, storage location monitoring, depalletizing and volume measurement. Algorithms produce task-specific results; vehicle, robot or warehouse systems handle the subsequent operation. ![AW3](https://mintcdn.com/mrdvs/WqV0HpTmTpqI6k1f/images/optimized/algorithms/whitepapers/aw3-main-interface-en.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=WqV0HpTmTpqI6k1f\&q=85\&s=0a6d014d419055b3cf9d7998cb24b735) ## Core functions | Function | Purpose | | - | - | | Device connections | Connect to Central Service, discover cameras and check device status | | Camera groups | Assign one or more cameras to a task group and select a licensed algorithm | | Images and point clouds | Inspect live images, depth point clouds and algorithm results | | Algorithm licensing | Generate requests, import licenses and check their validity | | System settings | Configure language, display options, operating mode and service upgrades | | Communications | Receive external triggers and send structured results to the host system | | Log export | Export diagnostic data by category and time range | ![AW3](https://mintcdn.com/mrdvs/WqV0HpTmTpqI6k1f/images/optimized/algorithms/whitepapers/aw3-image-and-point-cloud-en.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=WqV0HpTmTpqI6k1f\&q=85\&s=1eab15d64eb2d0911dc0c109c69a493a) ## Platform and solution responsibilities | Layer | Role | | - | - | | Vision hardware | Captures images, depth and point clouds | | Application algorithms | Return pallet poses, storage-location states, grasp locations or dimensions and volume | | AW3 platform | Manages connections, camera groups, licensing, parameters, communications and logs | | Host system | Controls vehicles and robot arms, and handles WMS and scheduling workflows | ## Application algorithms > **[Pallet docking](/en/solutions/warehouse/pallet-recognition.md)** > > Return pallet position and orientation to support automated forklift pickup and placement. > **[Storage location monitoring](/en/solutions/warehouse/bin-location-status.md)** > > Detect storage-location occupancy and cargo presence for warehouse operations. > **[Bag depalletizing](/en/solutions/warehouse/soft-package-depalletizing.md)** > > Recognize bags and provide grasp-position information. > **[Volume measurement](/en/solutions/warehouse/volume-measurement.md)** > > Measure object length, width, height and volume for logistics and production lines. Depalletizing is available in AW3. Features depend on the delivered configuration and licenses. Obstacle avoidance and V2 Pro localization use their own tools. ## Installation by application | Application | Required packages | Platform components | | - | - | - | | Volume measurement | AW3 installer | Install frontend and backend | | Storage location monitoring | AW3 installer and StockSync package | Install the frontend only; omit the AW3 backend | | Pallet docking | AW3 installer and SmartDocking package | Install the frontend only; omit the AW3 backend | Deploy algorithm packages according to the target device's instructions. A .tar.gz algorithm package is not a Windows frontend installer. ## Deployment workflow 1. Prepare the compatible cameras, Windows host, network and AW3 installer. 2. Place cameras and host on the same subnet, then install the components required by the application. 3. Connect devices, create camera groups, license the algorithms and inspect the images. 4. Follow the algorithm manual for calibration, parameter configuration and result validation. 5. Configure communications and connect the application to the host system. The frontend, device services and algorithms have separate versions. Check installed versions and the project configuration before upgrading; a frontend update does not update device algorithms automatically. ## Latest downloads > **[Download user manual](https://mrdvs.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/knowledge-community/Application-Algorithms/knowledge-hub-docs-2026-10-15/a9e18096eb83f53573e4785ab2ff75c70e4aefe5f86783f26d4c3d7172c19794/MRDVS_AW3_Application_Algorithm_Platform_User_Manual_v0_1.pdf)** > > V0.1 · English PDF > **[Download installer](https://mrdvs.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/knowledge-community/Application-Algorithms/aw3-v3.1.2/bb9e2c55afa907582adeaf337ae02a7ff25224202199b3f9b4c205b94b169436/AW3-V3.1.2_260929_win_x64.exe)** > > AW3 3.1.2 · Windows x64 · 2026-09-29 ## Software downloads | Software version | Platform | Release date | File | Release | | - | - | - | - | - | | [AW3 3.1.2](https://github.com/Lanxin-MRDVS/Application-Algorithms/releases/tag/aw3-v3.1.2) | Windows x64 · build 260929 | 2026-09-29 | [Download](https://mrdvs.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/knowledge-community/Application-Algorithms/aw3-v3.1.2/bb9e2c55afa907582adeaf337ae02a7ff25224202199b3f9b4c205b94b169436/AW3-V3.1.2_260929_win_x64.exe) | [Release](https://github.com/Lanxin-MRDVS/Application-Algorithms/releases/tag/aw3-v3.1.2) | ## Manual and white paper downloads Software and document versions are managed separately.
