The ArUco : the new device for identifying moving objects over long distances
Many applications
- Inventory of stocks: a significant saving of time because there is no need to approach a commodity to scan it to identify it.
- Maritime transport: identification of containers, mafis and goods entering and leaving ships.
- Rail transport: identification of wagons entering and leaving the site with their position and the positions of the containers placed on the wagons.
​
It is a simple device to set up, inexpensive and like QR Codes, ArUco can be configured to communicate information on the goods, for example its dangerousness, instructions relating to its handling, etc. .
The ArUco is a simplified QR Code whose great advantage is that it can be scanned in motion and from a long distance. Thus the goods, containers and wagons that pass in front of a scanning device (fixed or mobile) can be identified and located, like a barcode scan of a product at a supermarket checkout.
This technology goes even further because several ArUco can be scanned simultaneously.
