1. An apparatus comprising:
a first sensor tower located proximate a loading dock, wherein the first sensor tower comprises a first plurality of camera sensors that capture a first set of images of a first side of a freight item as the freight item moves across the loading dock;
a second sensor tower located proximate the loading dock, wherein the second sensor tower comprises a second plurality of camera sensors that capture a second set of images of a second side of the freight item as the freight item moves across the loading dock, wherein the first and second sides of the freight item are distinct from one another; and
a computing device, communicatively coupled to the first sensor tower and the second sensor tower, configured to:
receive the first set of images of the first side of the freight item;
receive the second set of images of the second side of the freight item; and
analyze the first set of images and the second set of images to identify at least one object associated with the freight item.
