  An increasing number of ports worldwide are adapting to autonomous processes to improve safety and increase efficiency. However, ports are some of the most challenging environments to maintain reliable wireless communication that autonomous systems require. Large metal containers and equipment found in shipyards, such as cranes, block RF signals resulting in loss of Wi-Fi connection which leads to autonomous systems failing. Radars, ships, and neighbouring ports can also cause signal interference. Designing Wi-Fi or LTE systems around a moving port is not practical as they rely heavily ..read more

  Today, many palletizing applications are still carried out by manual labour.
