Conceptual design of a modular, hybrid sensor system (Duck Box) for the implementation of location-based material flow analyses



Intralogistics show great potential for increasing efficiency in many companies. For this purpose, material flow analyses are used. The underlying data basis can be provided by Indoor Positioning Systems (IPS) or Real Time Location Systems (RTLS). Due to poor user-friendliness and the influence of company-specific factors, such systems are usually not used. The aim of this paper is to develop the conceptual design of a modular, hybrid sensor system (project name: Duck Box) to enable complete material flow analyses. Based on the state of the art, the paper describes the general requirements for such a system, the selection of components, the calculation of the required power supply as well as the construction of a housing. In contrast to other systems, the developed modular hybrid sensor system acts as an enabler for holistic location-based material flow analyses.

Host city and venue - Vienna

Vienna (Wien) is the federal capital and largest city of Austria, and one of the nine states of Austria. Vienna is Austria's primate city, with a population of about 1.9 million (2.6 million within the metropolitan area, nearly one third of Austria's population), and its cultural, economic, and political centre. It is the 7th-largest city by population within city limits in the European Union.  Read more...
