Container Intelligent Tally System

"Container Intelligent Tally System" is an application system built based on Web technology, which includes a set of Web application platform with AI ‘Quay Crane Container Recognition System’ and ‘AI Gantry Crane Container Recognition System’. Helping container terminals to change the traditional manual tally process, realize the tally personnel can perform tally work remotely from the indoor control center. Effectively reduce the working intensity for the tally personnel, improve safety and improve operation accuracy. The AI Quay Crane Container Recognition System and the AI Gantry Crane Container Recognition System are using high-definition dome cameras with more than 2 million pixels to automatically track and capture the dynamic position of moving crane spreader and the container; record in video, enable the  AI + OCR technology to recognize the container number, tractor license plate number, locate and identify  container damage(if any), bay position on ship, and combined with real-time video streams and various business data from the terminal operating system ,  to achieve a complete loading and unloading tally operation process.

Tally personnel by using the system, can complete the tally work remotely inside the Control Office more efficiently and accurately. System can perform:  real-time monitoring, recognition, matching, release, error interception and other functions automatically; realize real-time docking of tally data with the terminal operating system, real-time matching and verification of tally data with the ship cargo manifest, the operation plan, operation orders; perform instant rectification so as reducing tally error.

The most significant feature is the transformation of the traditional tallying work through technology, improving the tallyman’s working environment and safety; changing the operation mode of the original on-site one or two tally staff for one crane into one tally staff to look after two or more cranes.  This helps the terminal to reduce the shipside labor cost  and increase productivity.

  • AI Quay Crane Recognition

    Container intelligent tally system combined with AI Quay Crane Recognition system, enable a tally worker to perform tally work for one or more units of Quay Cranes at the same time. Each Quay Crane installed with multiple high-definition cameras, automatically capture video pictures of container in lifting and recognize container number, truck license plate number, container damage, ship bay position and other tally key information, generate operation job queue, automatically perform tally and container damage information confirmation.

  • AI Gantry Crane Recognition

    Container intelligent tally system combined with AI Gantry Crane Recognition system, enables a tally worker to perform tally work for one or more Gantry Cranes at the same time. Each Gantry Crane installed with multiple high-definition cameras, with the Gantry Crane’s attitude perception system automatically capture loading and unloading container video pictures and recognize the container number, truck license plate number, container damage and other key tally information, generate operation job queue for the system automatically tally and damage information confirmation.

System Description

  • The system recognise all container information displayed on the tally system platform and perform automatic tally;
  • The monitoring system can record the complete video of the panoramic view of the container loading/unloading operation of each Quay Crane.
  • Provide complete pictures of each panel of the container, and AI automatically labels the damage information;
  • Provide graphical ship bay plan view for bay selection , display all containers on the ship, improve tally efficiency;
  • Compare the ship bay plan with the working plan, record and prompt alert when loading bay position error is found.
  • Ship bay image capture function provides snapshot pictures of bay information for query and verification;
  • With ship operation, loading and unloading container information monitoring, can monitor and operate multiple cranes tally work at the same time;
  • The system can be operated independently, and/or work seamlessly with the TOS and the tally system of the terminal.
  • Use browser access without the need to install applications; any browser plug-ins to support internet access.
  • With extensive external interfaces, can flexibly interact with third-party systems and provide tally reports or other
  • data.
