Cargo scanning or non-intrusive inspection (NII) refers to non-destructive methods of inspecting and identifying goods in transportation systems. It is often used for scanning of intermodal freight shipping containers. In the US it is spearheaded by the Department of Homeland Security and its Container Security Initiative (CSI) trying to achieve one hundred percent cargo scanning by 2012 as required by the US Congress and recommended by the 9/11 Commission. In the US the main purpose of scanning is to detect special nuclear materials (SNMs), with the added bonus of detecting other types of suspicious cargo. In other countries the emphasis is on manifest verification, tariff collection and the identification of contraband. In February 2009, approximately 80% of US incoming containers were scanned. In order to bring that number to 100% researchers are evaluating numerous technologies, described in the following sections.
A cargo handling method and a cargo handling robot
This invention belongs to the field of robotic transportation technology, and specifically relates to a cargo handling method and a handling robot. The method includes: setting the destination location and the type of cargo to be handled; determining the robot's walking path and cargo scanning information based on the destination location and the type of cargo; and matching the type of cargo with the preset walking path to determine the corresponding handling path for that type of cargo. The invention features a simple and reasonable overall structural design, high operational stability, and the forklift walking mechanism and forklift lifting mechanism can flexibly adapt to the material handling needs of different scenarios, requiring no manual intervention and thus improving handling efficiency.

Cargo positioning and anti-collision system and method for semi-submersible barge float-on and float-off process
The application provides a cargo positioning and anti-collision system and method for the floating loading and unloading process of a semi-submersible barge. By fusing the ship body pose obtained by a ship basic perception unit and the local pose and point cloud data of the cargo obtained by a cargo scanning and tracking unit, a high-precision real-time three-dimensional pose of the cargo in a unified coordinate system is calculated by a data fusion module. At the same time, the point cloud data is used to quickly generate a three-dimensional model of the cargo with the assistance of artificial intelligence, and the model and the physical world cargo are driven to move synchronously in a digital twin environment, realizing the visualization of the whole process of the floating loading and unloading operation. On this basis, the anti-collision simulation module performs forward-looking motion trajectory deduction and interference detection according to the real-time pose of the cargo, transforming the traditional experience-dependent extensive operation into data and model-driven precise control, and significantly improving the cargo positioning accuracy, operation safety and intelligent level.
