Computing package wall density in commercial trailer loading

A three-dimensional (3D) depth imaging system for use in commercial trailer loading, the 3D depth imaging system comprising:

• a 3D-depth camera configured to capture 3D image data, the 3D-depth camera oriented in a direction to capture 3D image data of a storage area associated with a vehicle;
• and
• a load-efficiency application (app) executing on one or more processors, the load-efficiency app being configured to determine, based on the 3D image data, a load-efficiency score for the storage area,
• wherein the determination of the load-efficiency score causes the load-efficiency app to receive a set of point cloud data based on the 3D image data, to analyze the set of point cloud data, to generate a set of data slices based on the set of point cloud data each data slice corresponding to a portion of the 3D image data, to estimate a set of missing data points in each data slice in the set of data slices, and to calculate a load-efficiency score based on the generated set of data slices and estimated set of missing data points.
