  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSPORTING MATERIAL
    Publication number: 20130245878
    Abstract: A method and a system of transporting material are provided, wherein at least one mobile transport unit is detected by a detection device with a radar or laser detecting device. Position coordinates, position angles and speed of the transport unit are determined using a reference coordinate system and are transmitted to a stationary data processing device. A central material tracking with verification of storage locations is generated by the data processing device, wherein, particularly with use of the positing angle, a storage type for the material is automatically determined.

  • Method and system for material transport
    Patent number: 8457776
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a system for material transport, whereby at least one mobile transport means is detected by means of a detection device, comprising a radar or laser detecting device. Position coordinates, position angles and speed of the transport means are determined by means of a reference coordinate system and transmitted to a stationary data processing device. A central material tracking with verification of storage location is generated by means of the data processing device, whereby, particularly with use of the positing angle, the storage type for the material can be automatically determined. Operator input for the complete description of the material storage is not necessary.
