    The Power of FreeFlow PreGate 🚛 In SmartPort a freight vehicle entering a port terminal and smoothly passing through a PreGate—no stopping, no distracting white light, minimize waiting, just seamless movement. The SmartPort ITS system is designed to capture essential data in real-time, transforming the efficiency of RoRo ferry operations. Here's how it works and why it matters: When the freight vehicle passes through the PreGate: Data Captured Instantly: Size, vehicle category, weight, license plate, nationality, maker and model, driver count, hazardous license details, and trailer AccR ID are recorded in real-time using advanced imaging and AI-powered recognition systems. Accuracy in Every Detail: Whether it’s verifying hazardous materials or matching license plates to national databases, every detail is captured with high precision, ensuring that no information is missed. The vehicle then proceeds to the pre-boarding check-in: Front License Plate Recognition: The front license plate is automatically scanned and matched with the booking data stored in the system. Automatic Data Matching & Updates: The system verifies and matches the captured PreGate data with the existing ferry booking data. If any discrepancies or updates are needed, the system automatically corrects or updates the booking information, ensuring everything is accurate before boarding. Key Advantages: Faster Check-In: By automating data capture and verification, the entire process becomes quicker, reducing wait times and minimizing congestion at the terminal. Enhanced Accuracy: Real-time data matching eliminates manual errors, ensuring that bookings and vehicle details are accurate and up-to-date before boarding. Seamless Operations: The free-flow design allows vehicles to pass through the PreGate without stopping, optimizing traffic flow and improving overall operational efficiency. Reduced Emissions: With less stopping and idling, emissions are significantly reduced, supporting sustainability goals and creating a greener port environment. Improved Customer Experience: Streamlined operations mean quicker processing and a hassle-free experience for freight operators, enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty. SmartPort ITS transforms freight operations into an efficient, data-driven process, reducing delays and providing a smoother, more reliable terminal experience. It's the future of RoRo Ferry operations, bringing automation and accuracy together for maximum efficiency. #SmartPortITS #FreightPreGate #RoRoFerry #PortAutomation #Efficiency #Sustainability #CustomerExperience #Innovation

    🚢 The Art of Communication in SmartPorts 🚢 Just having 64x128 pixels to express everything – guidance, clarity, and direction. In the world of SmartPort ITS, this is more than technology; it’s an art of communication. Simplifying complex operations while still leaving room for creativity and intuitive interaction. It’s not just about systems and sensors; it’s about connecting the dots between operational efficiency and an enhanced customer experience. At AGICON, 50% of our resources are dedicated to innovations — working with OEM manufacturers, integrators, ports and RoRo Ferry operators to collaborate continuously. This is how we stay ahead, ensuring the right balance between technology, process optimization, and customer experience. The Ampron LED sign might seem small, but its impact is vast. It speaks to every driver— whether prebooked or 'show & go'—with one clear message. Interactive shifting display for dynamic Traffic Management. In those few pixels, we see the convergence of precision and simplicity, where optimized operations meet the elegance of real-time communication. All this, while reducing emissions, cutting down idling, and making journeys smoother. In the end, SmartPort ITS is not only technology. It’s about crafting an experience that flows seamlessly from start to finish, for both operators and customers alike. #SmartPortITS #Design #SimplicityInDesign #CommunicationArt #PortAutomation #CustomerExperience #Efficiency #Sustainability

    RoRo Ferry SmartPort Innovation & Transformation, Technology & Project Management

    Smart Ferry Ports: The First Generation (1992). DFDS pioneered the first generation of SmartPort technology for RoRo ferry operations by developing an automated Trailer Gate system. This early innovation provided digital photo evidence storage and automated check-in and check-out processes. Remarkably, this was achieved before the internet or powerful CPUs were available. The system featured two lanes for entry and exit, designed in a Y-shape. Drivers were guided by automated light signals to stop in a designated 'photo area' for one minute while 14 cameras captured digital images of the trailer. These images were stored for future reference. The technology behind the system was a video multiplexer, initially designed for pool tables, which processed the digital images. Data was stored on DAT tapes for later retrieval, and any necessary photo evidence prints were produced upon request and mailed physically. The gate operator worked from a port cabin (as shown in the accompanying photo), while drivers, after parking, would stretch their legs and present a prepared note with trailer ID and booking number. If a driver needed to report damages, the system automatically included it on the printed receipt. One operator could handle up to 60 trailers per hour with both photo verification and paperwork processing. This system replaced six full-time employees, reduced claims payouts by 75%, and achieved a return on investment within just three months. Although local management pushed for the project’s success, the first eight weeks of operations presented a hidden challenge: none of the digital photo data could be retrieved. However, the high number of cameras mounted impressed everyone involved, and the secret was kept internal. Looking back, this is one of the projects I'm most proud of, surpassed only by the design of the 4th Generation ITS SmartPort design with Adaptive Recognition Nordic ⅍ that was just rolled out in Rosslare Europort and 2 ports at Scandlines and soon more Smart Ferry Ports.
