Getting ready for AI
NewsTideworks is developing a “strategic framework for establishing AI in terminal operations” that aims to put terminals in a position to take advantage of the new technology.
Ravin AI, an Israeli company that provides AI-powered visual inspection tools across the fleet, rental, used car and insurance industries, has announced a contract with the Port of Haifa. More than 40,000 new vehicles enter the Israeli port each year, and Ravin will verify the physical integrity of each vehicle.
Ravin uses computer vision and deep learning to detect and monitor the condition of vehicles, leveraging mobile phone and standard CCTV cameras. In particular, the port will implement Ravin’s Inspect, AutoScan, and Eye platform to inspect imports and pinpoint damage done during the transport, offloading and storage processes.
The platform will alert port staff to any damage in real-time and will help maintain control over the condition of vehicles from the moment they arrive until they are shipped on by road, minimising risk and financial exposure for the port.
The technology has already been implemented by companies such as Toyota, Hertz, and KAR Global.
Eliron Ekstein, co-founder and CEO at Ravin AI, commented: “By partnering with one of the largest ports in the Middle East, Ravin’s technology will eliminate much of this problem in the region by significantly speeding up the inspection process and increasing the accuracy of spotting damages by an order of magnitude. In the near future, we anticipate more global ports will adopt our proven technology.
