Telia and port services provider Konecranes have launched a joint pilot to test and develop solutions for automated port operations utilizing 5G.
A modern port is a key node in a precision-tuned logistics chain. To increase efficiency and safety, Telia and Konecranes in Finland are testing optimizing port operations with 5G technology and analytics.
In the pilot, a forklift truck was equipped with a 360° video camera that relays image over a 5G network for the video analysis engine to analyze. The low latency and massive capacity of the 5G technologies enable the system to transfer high-resolution video image from a mobile machine to the cloud service.
