The Sky-Trax System™ (Patent Pending) tracks the movement of vehicles such as lift trucks inside factories and warehouses. STS automatically determines vehicle position with great accuracy and provides real-time position data to the driver. It can record precise location data for the movement of goods within a bulk storage area and guide the driver to the next pick-up or put-away spot. The system captures and displays the location of all vehicles, aiding managers, warehouse operators and/or computer systems such as warehouse management systems.
Sky-Trax IPS Technology™
STS consists of four components: (Hover over each)
Sky-Trax STS™ works like a GPS, but unlike GPS, it works reliably indoors. Sky-Trax technology is based on optical components instead of radio wave technology so the system is immune to radio interference and not affected by building construction materials or contents.
How It Works
The OPS™ Smart Sensor is aimed at the ceiling and captures digital images of overhead position markers(OPMs). Contemporary machine vision software decodes the image to recognize location and calculates the orientation angle and exact position of the OPS™ .
A wireless link transmits OPS data to the STS Controller which collects location data from all OPS sensors. The Controller stores data in a standard database and makes it available in real-time for high value applications.
STS provides the capability of GPS and more. Rotational orientation, inch-accurate location, direction of travel, and velocity are available. And of course, STS works indoors where GPS is unreliable.
