Description

Mobile goods movement control system Technical field of the invention

[0001] The present invention relates to a mobile system for controlling the movement of goods. By movement is meant the loading and unloading or transfer of goods areas or the inventory of which goods are in which location.

[0002] Systems using barcodes and RFID tags are used to track goods at warehouses and loading / unloading points. However, these systems are less effective at monitoring the continued movement of goods once they are loaded onto a vehicle.

[0003] RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification, a method for storing and retrieving data remotely. The system is activated by a transfer of electromagnetic energy between a radio tag and an RFID transmitter.

[0004] GPS-based tracking systems are widely used to track the location of freight vehicles. These systems provide real-time location information for vehicles, but they have limitations when it comes to fine-grained management of goods inside vehicles.

[0005] The term GPS stands for "Global Positioning System", in French, the acronym means "Global Positioning System", it is a satellite positioning system, receivers located on or near the Earth's surface can determine location, time and speed using this information.

[0006] Video surveillance systems are used to monitor cargo, but they are often limited in terms of video data storage and processing capacity, which limits their usefulness for long-term monitoring.

[0007] We can also cite document WO2021034681 which presents a system and method for image capture and shelf content detection. However, this document does not include parameters related to the contents of the containers. Presentation of the invention

[0008] The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks with a completely innovative approach.

[0051] Lamontre shows a diagram of a camera.

[0052] The invention relates to a mobile system for monitoring the movement of goods which comprises a camera 20.

[0053] The goods are on or in containers.

[0054] Each container has an identification code 22 or a shape or logo.

[0055] The camera 20 comprises one or more camera devices 23. The camera device 23 is one of the following: a camera, a photo camera, a point cloud reader, a reader for capturing different waves or measurements of physical phenomena.

[0056] The shooting device may or may not be associated with a light adaptation system. It can be activated or designed from the outset with or without it.

[0057] Inside there is a control unit 25 which comprises a microcontroller 26 controlling the system and comprising a database or communicating with an external database, a processing unit 29 of at least one shot to identify the identification code 22 or the shape of at least one container; and create a list of the recognized identification codes.

[0058] The data processing unit 29 associates unique information with the shooting data.

[0063] The 26 microcontroller is an integrated circuit that brings together the essential elements of a computer.

[0064] The database stores and remembers at least one shot or its data to identify a 22.

[0065] A processing unit 29 is the engine of a computer that interprets and executes program instructions located in central memory.

[0066] A sensor is a device that can capture a physical phenomenon and return it in the form of a signal.

[0067] The processing unit 29 associates temporal information with data taken with the imaging device 23 or the sensors.

[0068] The information from the database is displayed with a 32 display screen.

[0069] The display screen 32 displays data of at least one identification code of a container and its parameters.

[0070] Said identification code is one of the following: an identification label, a visual identification code, a connected tag or a reference to a database.

[0071] The identification tag is emitted by the wave frequency which is directly embedded in the content.

[0072] Wave frequency or wavelength is a physical quantity characteristic of a monochromatic wave in a homogeneous medium, defined as the distance separating two consecutive maxima of the amplitude. The wave frequency depends on the speed or velocity of propagation of the wave in the medium it passes through.

[0073] The wave frequency is RFID type.

[0074] Said visual identification code is a bar code comprising at least one dimension, an alphanumeric series and a symbol.

[0075] The term "at least one dimension" refers to one or more dimensions, for example two dimensions.

[0076] The said connected beacon includes a technology called Bluetooth.

[0077] Bluetooth is a registered trademark meaning Bluetooth Low Energy, Bluetooth Smart, or beacon in English terminology. It corresponds to a short-range wireless connection technology, allowing the connection of digital devices.

[0078] For example, a reference to a database is called a blockchain.

[0079] Blockchain is a technology for storing and transmitting information that is transparent, secure, and operates without a central control body.

[0080] The camera 20 has a battery and is electrically connected to a container holder or an external battery.

[0081] A power bank is a portable electricity storage device for personal use.

[0082] The communication of information coming from the processing unit 29 is done with a communication module 33 by transmission and reception of data.

[0083] Data transmission and reception come from a transceiver.

[0084] A transceiver is an electronic device that can transmit and receive electromagnetic signals.

[0085] This communication method makes it possible to make information coming from the processing unit 29 accessible.

[0086] The system further comprises a data communication module 33 with a data transceiver making the information from the processing unit 29 accessible remotely.

[0087] The communication module 33 enables the transfer of data between the local processing unit and a remote processing unit, whether via a local network, a remote network or the Internet.

[0088] The remote processing unit can monitor the data, performance and operations of the local processing unit in real time, enabling remote monitoring of systems, processes or equipment.

[0089] Information collected by the local processing unit can be aggregated and centralized remotely, facilitating large-scale data collection from multiple local units.

[0090] Remote technicians or experts can diagnose and resolve problems or anomalies without the need to physically visit the local processing unit site.

[0091] Software updates, configurations or data downloads can be performed remotely, simplifying system management and maintenance.

[0092] Data transferred between the local processing unit and the remote processing unit can be secured using encryption protocols, ensuring confidentiality and integrity of the information.

[0093] The system includes a 35 antenna.

[0094] Antenna 35 receives a GPS signal. GPS signals are broadcast by Global Positioning System satellites to enable satellite navigation.

[0095] This GPS signal makes it possible to know the exact position of the camera 20 and to transmit it to the database.

[0096] The exact position of the camera 20 is transmitted with a time interval.

[0097] The camera has other tooling and sensing elements. Other elements include: a gyroscope, a temperature sensor, and label printing.

[0098] A gyroscope is a sensor for detecting horizontal and vertical motion. It is a device that detects angular velocity, which is the change in rotation angle per unit time.

[0099] The said temperature sensor will measure the temperature in the system.

[0100] According to one embodiment, the temperature of the system is indicated on the display screen 32.

[0101] According to one embodiment, the label prints originate from the user interface of the system or from a printer connected to the system.

[0102] Label printing helps track physical or digital data in the system.

[0103] According to one example, the camera 20 comprises a heat source 36 which is sent to at least one container 21 before taking the pictures.

[0104] According to one example, before a shot, there is a heat source 36 which is sent to one or more containers.

[0105] Heat source 36 helps to analyze images or shapes of one or more containers.

[0106] The processing unit 29 compares the list of identification codes of each container 21 with a theoretical list of identification codes of the containers 21 contained in the internal or external database, when there is a difference then the system indicates an incident on the display screen 32.

[0107] The processing unit 29 is capable of quickly and accurately detecting any difference between the actual identification codes of the containers and those recorded in the database. This detection makes it possible to identify potential inconsistencies.

[0108] The system helps prevent container tracking errors by comparing actual data with expected data in real time. This reduces the risk of container mix-ups or mishandling.

[0109] When a discrepancy is detected, the system issues an immediate alert, allowing for rapid corrective action to be taken to resolve the issue. By signaling incidents on the display screen, the system provides a clear visual source to inform operators or users of potential problems.

[0110] Recording incidents and differences helps improve the traceability of containers throughout their life cycle.

[0111] The recognition module 34 allows for the accurate identification of specific shapes, images, logos, or correlations in visual data. This ensures reliable recognition of target elements.

[0112] Automated recognition of shapes, images or logos can automate processes that previously required human intervention, which can improve operational efficiency.

[0113] By eliminating reliance on human observation, the Recognition Module 34 reduces the risk of human error, which can be crucial in applications requiring high accuracy.

[0114] In some cases, recognition can be performed in real time, allowing rapid response to visual data and timely decision making.

[0115] According to one example, the system further comprises an integrated device for traceability of internal or external physical measurements 37 positioned in at least one of the containers 21, said integrated device for traceability of physical measurements 37 is configured to give an indicator of the evolution of a parameter of the containers 21. The parameter is the radiation, the visual without tearing, the odor, the humidity, the weight of the container support 21, the gas detection.

[0116] According to one example, the system collaborates, shares and exchanges data with at least one terminal 38, said terminal 38 cooperating with the camera 20, said terminal 38 comprises:- another camera-type camera device, or any other type of point cloud capture equipment, configured for taking pictures at the time a container 21 passes in front of said terminal 38, said terminal 38 extracts and decodes the identification code of each container 21 before sending said view to a database;- a flash, or any other continuous or instantaneous lighting device, connected to the camera device triggered during the taking of pictures;- a control unit, comprising a microcontroller controlling the system and said database, a unit for processing at least one shot to identify the identification code 22 of each container 21 and create a list of the recognized identification codes, the data processing unit associates unique information with the shot data; a unit for triggering the shot as a function of at least one motion detection cell, the data of at least one shot are compared with data in the database, or create the data in the database if they do not exist, by the processing unit adapted to recognize the numbers and shapes of the containers 21 or point clouds of the shots, and associates them with the unique information; the data processing unit associates temporal information with the shot data.;

[0117] The unique information corresponds to a character string.

[0118] A string is an ordered sequence of characters used to represent text.

[0119] Lamontre the camera with a control system.

[0120] The 20 camera is equipped with a high-resolution camera with real-time image capture capabilities. The camera can be controlled to pan and tilt to achieve optimal viewing angles for monitoring material handling and logistics operations.

[0121] The camera 20 can be controlled remotely by the operator of the control system or by a supervisor using a user-friendly interface.

[0122] Lamontre the camera 20 at an angle to see containers.

[0123] The use of the system with multiple occurrences to identify the identification codes 22 of the containers 21 following several shots.

[0124] By capturing multiple shots of a container 21 with different angles, lighting, and conditions, the system has a better chance of obtaining high-quality images of the identification code. This increases the reliability of identification and reduces the risk of error.

[0125] By comparing multiple instances of the shots, the system can more effectively eliminate false positives in the event of incorrect identification. Due to stacking, it is sometimes impossible to access containers 21 in the center of a batch without having multiple shots.

[0126] In moving environments, such as automated warehouses, containers can be moved, rotated, or tilted. By using multiple camera shots, the system can track the container and identify its identification code even as it changes position.

[0127] By having multiple occurrences for each shot, the system can also detect recognition errors by comparing occurrences. This allows inconsistencies to be flagged and potential errors to be corrected.

[0128] Lamontre turns the camera from another angle to see containers.

[0129] The iterative approach ensures that each container 21 has a batch identification code 22 that is tracked and recorded at each stage of stacking. This ensures complete batch traceability, even when some containers 21 are no longer visible.

[0130] By using multiple occurrences to track containers 21, the system can reduce counting errors that could occur during manual or automated stacking.

[0131] Once the 21 containers are stacked and out of view, the system can extrapolate their location using previously recorded data. This allows for accurate tracking of their position even if they are temporarily out of sight.

[0132] By having full lot traceability, the system can optimize stacking space by strategically placing containers 21 to maximize the use of available space.

[0133] If a container 21 is missing or mispositioned during stacking, the system can identify these anomalies by comparing the recorded data with the actual configuration.

[0134] Memorizing the layers of each container 21 reduces the risk of error when stacking or moving containers 21, as the system can alert in case of incorrect arrangement.

[0135] The system can monitor the load distribution on each layer, helping to avoid potentially dangerous overloads or imbalances.

[0136] When you need to access a specific container 21 in a set, the system can indicate the layer and exact position of the container 21, making it easier to search and retrieve.

[0137] Better management of container layers 21 can help reduce the risk of slipping or falling when moving or handling the assembly.

[0138] If changes are made to the layer layout, the system can detect them and update the memory to reflect the new configuration.

[0139] Storing layers may require the use of advanced image processing algorithms to identify and record the positions and orientations of containers 21.

[0140] The system can be configured to issue alerts in case of unauthorized movements or unauthorized modifications of layers, thus enhancing security.

[0141] The system can use sensors and images to identify the loading and unloading direction to avoid using resources multiple times.

[0142] The system allows to identify loading and unloading using a distance sensor using two measurements between a determined time space.

[0143] It is also possible to identify loading and unloading using the interpretation of the image size.

[0144] Lamontre lifts the camera with a forklift.

[0145] The camera 20 is visible with a forklift.

[0146] According to one variant, it is equipped with an anti-shock device.
