Have you ever seen a cargo container sitting in a loading yard or a port? Those big metal rectangles that carry and protect goods look like they’d be pretty hard to lose, right? The trouble is, cargo containers are constantly being moved and shipped over huge distance as they help deliver goods from one place to the next, and dock workers need to be able to track and organize the containers as they come and go. A helpful tool for anyone, in any industry that needs to know where a specific cargo container is at any given moment is Gatekeeper Security’s container code reader technology.
How It Works?
Unlike license plate reader systems, container code recognition faces the challenge of non-uniform illumination. In order to combat this, Gatekeeper Security uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to quickly and accurately decode the image into usable data. This advanced software is tuned to fit the work environment for the best results.
Which Industries?
Container code readers are perfect for the transportation and commercial industries. Keeping track of incoming and outgoing containers on loading docks and ports is a complex task made much easier with accurate and quick container code readers. Cargo containers aren’t just used for shipping and hauling cargo, though. Many businesses use cargo containers for storage or as production sites, and need to keep track of their inventory.
Applications
The container code reading system is great for automatic container inventory and tracking, container terminal inventory and management, linking containers to identified trucks, identifying damaged containers, and detecting containers of interest.
