Shipping

Empowering Informatization of Waterways and Digital Management

With the rapid expansion of infrastructure, bridge construction has surged—along with an increase in ship-bridge collisions, leading to significant economic losses. Meanwhile, low levels of digitalization in waterway management highlight the need for modernization.

Seyond’s shipping solution, powered by high-performance image-level LiDAR, delivers 24/7, all-weather, high-precision monitoring. It equips enforcement and maintenance teams with real-time ship traffic and collision warnings, enabling ship-shore collaboration to prevent accidents and advance the digital transformation of waterways.

Falcon K

Installed on both sides of shorelines and bridges, Falcon LiDAR operates 24/7 to monitor and record vessel traffic on waterways. It tracks the location and trajectory of passing ships, automatically logging key details such as ship count, course, speed, dimensions (length, width, and draught), cargo status, and height violations. This data serves as the foundation for active bridge collision warnings, providing accurate and reliable

Robin W

Robin W LiDAR performs high-precision dimensional measurements of ships before they enter lock gates. The detected dimensions are compared to information in the billing system to assist in digital oversight. Additionally, by utilizing the declared ship data, Robin W calculates vessel traffic volume passing through the lock, enabling efficient traffic flow management.

Vessel Traffic Analysis

Installed on both sides of the shore, LiDAR operates 7x24H to monitor and record vessel traffic on the waterway. It automatically logs information such as the number of ships passing by, their course, speed, length, width, draught, carrying cargo or not, and over height or not. This is the basic data for active bridge collision warnings, providing stable and reliable data for the informatization of waterways.

Bridge Active Collision Warning

Installed on the bridge or shore, it performs all-weather, high-precision 3D dimension detection and location trajectory tracking of passing ships on the waterway. It proactively identifies target vessels posing a threat to the safety of the bridge and promptly issues over-height or off course warning signals, significantly reducing ship-bridge collision accidents.

Lock Gate

The smooth operation of water transport hubs relies heavily on ship lock gates. At present, ship lock gate inspection is mainly done manually to review the dimensions of ships passing through the locks, which is both time-consuming and labor-intensive. Moreover, there are often multiple ships passing through the lock gate at the same time. When closing of the lock gates, if a ship has not completely exited the lock chamber, it may cause serious collision damage to both the lock gate and the ship.

Seyond’s ship lock solution, based on high-performance image-grade LiDAR, provides high-precision detection of ship three-dimensional contours and spatial location, assisting in increasing the efficiency of ships passing through the locks, standardizing ship lock behavior, effectively reducing the occurrence of ship overloading situations, and promoting the digital management of ship locks.

Vessel Inspection

LiDAR performs high-precision dimension detection on ships before they enter the lock gates. The detected dimension information is compared to the one in the billing system to assist in digital supervision; at the same time, with the declared ship information, the vessel traffic volume passing through the lock can be calculated.

Area Monitoring at Lock Gates

Installed in the lock chamber, LiDAR performs all-weather, high-precision tracking of the position trajectory of ships entering the lock gates. It supports the operators with 3D monitoring of the lock chamber, automated operation scheduling, and ensures the efficient operation of the lock and the safe and convenient passage of ships.
