Gate Automation
A terminal’s entry and exit gate operations have long been a bottleneck of congestion as traffic volumes increase in the world’s marine and intermodal facilities. This congestion, and the costs of staffing personnel to accommodate it, has given rise to the widespread introduction of OCR technology in the gate areas. The OCR system provides centralized optical character recognition (OCR), identification and inspection of containerized cargo and equipment entering and exiting the terminal via over-the-road trucks.
