Design of Multi-sensor Monitoring System for Logistics Yard

Abstract

With the development of e-commerce, the scale of logistics industry appears rapid growth, which brings great pressure on the operation for the logistics yard. How to ensure the order of operations, and the security of staffs and goods, are the most important and urgent. In this paper, a safety monitoring system embedded multiple sensors for logistics yard is designed, which consists of a management center and a plurality of terminal monitoring nodes. The management center is composed of group servers, which is in charge of analyzing and processing the various environmental data, communicating with each terminal monitoring node, and human–computer interaction. The terminal monitor is responsible for acquiring the monitoring data and transmitting that to the management center in real time. The system presented in this paper can effectively supervise the yard working environment and immediately alert warning signs when anomalies or dangers occur, to ensure the security of staffs and goods to the greatest extent.
