Abstract
A cargo handling system in which an industrial vehicle performs cargo handling operation includes the industrial vehicle, a work site where the industrial vehicle performs cargo handling operation, a monitoring unit configured to monitor a state at a transition position where one process transitions to another process in the cargo handling operation, and a determination unit configured to determine whether a subsequent process is performable based on information acquired by the monitoring unit.
Claims11
A cargo handling system in which an industrial vehicle performs cargo handling operation, the cargo handling system comprising:
- the industrial vehicle;
- a work site where the industrial vehicle performs a cargo handling operation;
- a camera provided at a position in the work site different from the industrial vehicle and configured to monitor a state of a transition position at which a target object transitions from one process to a subsequent process in the cargo handling operation;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- determine whether the subsequent process is performable based on information acquired by the camera, and
- based on the subsequent process being performable, transmit an instruction to the industrial vehicle to perform the subsequent process.

A cargo handling system in which an industrial vehicle performs cargo handling operation, the cargo handling system comprising:
- the industrial vehicle;
- a work site where the industrial vehicle performs a cargo handling operation, the work site comprising a stopping position and a transition position separate from the stopping position, the transition position being an area at which a target object transitions from one process to a subsequent process in the cargo handling operation;
- a camera configured to monitor a state of the transition position;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- determine whether the subsequent process is performable based on information acquired by the camera about the state of the transition position, and
- based on the subsequent process being performable, transmit an instruction to the industrial vehicle to perform the subsequent process.
