Radar and GNSS solutions for vehicle and crane positioning
Symeo will present its radar and GNSS solutions for vehicle and crane positioning during the TOC Container Supply Chain Europe on June 24-26.
Several container terminals worldwide and Kalmar SmartPort Automation rely for this key functionality on Symeo products and solutions, which include Symeo LPR radar sensors and the Symeo global navigation satellite system (GNSS). In addition to solutions for tracking container movements, Symeo will also present complete anti-collision solutions and highly-precise distance measuring systems.
A key element for Kalmar SmartPort Automation is the Symeo SensorFusion, which combines the LPR radar technology, GNSS and powerful fusion software. This holistic approach enables full-coverage, highly-reliable positioning of terminal vehicles and cranes even in difficult-to-access areas, such as underneath ship-to-shore cranes and in narrow container corridors.
More than 700 cranes and vehicles in container terminals around the world are equipped with the Symeo LPR and Symeo GNSS solutions. This includes 14 joint projects with Kalmar SmartPort Automation at terminals in Africa, South America and the United States. “The unique strength of our systems lies in the ability to provide fully reliable, maintenance-free, weather-independent and highly-precise positioning,” explains Symeo managing director Christoph Rommel.
