Fully automated crane operations
AutoCrane operates the crane and executes all routine tasks by itself. Operators supervise the crane’s activities. AuotCrane works 24/7, without pause, in all weather conditions.
Perform individual tasks autonomously
If full autonomy is not desired or possible, the system will execute specific tasks itself, while other tasks are controlled by the operator.
Support functions for operators
Use AutoCrane components that provide operator assistance. Suppress lateral or rotation sway, use shortcuts for approaching the target, view the grapple or hook’s position in 3D space - these and similar features make life easier for the operator and increase speed, safety and efficiency.
Designed with operators in mind
Our clear, modern HMI shows the current and planned crane behaviours, and allows operators to select full autonomy or specific behaviours.
A brief tour of AutoCrane’s technology
AutoCrane uses visual and LIDAR data to build a map of the working area and to identify loads, vehicles and other objects on which it has been trained. AutoCrane’s sophisticated cognitive architecture ensures that perception and analysis result in the most efficient movement commands.
Industrial AI for your crane
AutoCrane’s cognitive architecture is based on the Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) model. This cognitive architecture simulates human-like reasoning, where beliefs represent the agent's knowledge of the world, desires are goals to be achieved, and intentions are the specific plans currently being executed. BDI agents dynamically update their intentions based on changing beliefs.
