Technology Trends Transforming the Logistics Industry
Technology Trends Transforming the Logistics Industry
The logistic industry is blooming with the implementation of technologies. Over the last few years just like any other industry, the logistics industry has started optimizing its productivity with an increase in the implementation of technologies.
AeoLogic Technologies have managed to successfully deploy one logistics automation project for one of the most successful airline companies in India. This software includes radio frequency identification (RFID) technology which has resulted in simplifying the complexity involved in the logistics industry.
This has been made possible because the automation software was not designed based on problems faced by the management, rather it was designed by even considering all the pain points of each and every co-worker involved in the transportation process.
This is the new era of modernization where technology plays an important role and implementing technology is no longer done to get a competitive advantage rather it has become a necessity.
Following are the technologies that AeoLogic Technologies are implementing to transform the logistics industry:
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the most advanced technologies of recent times. It is software machinery that thinks like human beings. It is showing astonishing results in the transportation and logistics industry. As it is capable of predicting the future based on current market conditions and insights of the business. This enables improvising efficiency, developing effective strategies, and enhancing customer service and assistance. Hence it can be said that AI is a great tool to optimize the logistics business.
Internet of Things (IoT)
Without human assistance, the internet of things (IoT) technology enables better communication between all electronic devices. This smoothens many complex processes involved in the logistics business. The internet of things (IoT) technology leads to warehouse automation by connecting robots and machinery in the warehouse so that they can work without human assistance. This results in cost-saving, improving productivity, and enhancing security in the long run.
Radiofrequency identification (RFID)
Radiofrequency identification (RFID) technology involves two main components. The first one is an RFID chip and the second one is an RFID tracker. The RFID chip gets attached to the item that needs to be tracked. This item can either be any object, animal, or even bird. The RFID tracker continuously sends radio waves and after coming in distant meters with the radio chip it traces the details from it. This process enables the tracking of the shipment on a real-time basis, making both the business owner and customer well informed about their shipment and eliminating all kinds of malfunctioning that can be done with any type of product.
To Conclude
Above mentioned three technologies are just the tip of the iceberg and AeoLogic Technologies is also implementing various other technologies such as robotics advancements, automating warehouses, cloud services, virtual reality (Vr), drone delivery, and blockchain technology to uplift the logistics industry.
All these new technology trends will surely contribute to transforming the logistics industry and enhancing the efficiency, effectiveness, and productivity of the world of transportation.
Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
