LiDAR technology is a cornerstone for automation, operational visibility, and safety

In logistics and ports, LiDAR technology is a cornerstone for automation, operational visibility, and safety. It drives the transition towards smart warehouses and fully automated container terminals by providing real-time, three-dimensional perception for automated guided vehicles (AGVs), robotic systems, and overall yard management.

Principles

LiDAR systems operate by emitting rapid - fire laser pulses throughout their operational environment. Each pulse determines the distance to objects—such as containers, cargo piles, or moving equipment—by calculating the time taken for the light to reflect back to the sensor. Through continuous scanning, these numerous precise distance measurements are compiled into dynamic, high - resolution 3D point cloud maps that update in real time.

Functions

Core functions encompass enabling the autonomous 
n
avigation and precise positioning of AGVs and unmanned 
co
ntainer handlers within busy yard environments; conducting 
v
olumetric measurements of bulk cargo (such as coal or grain)
 in storage zones; automating container stacking and retrieval 
ope
rations by guiding crane spreader movements; and

enhancing perimeter security through intrusion detection and 

collision avoidance for both manned and unmanned equipment.
