Zebra Enterprise Solutions recently introduced the launch of the Navis STAR Technology Alliance and its newest member – arl-shipping.com.
The Navis STAR program enhances the creation of process automation solutions by partnering technology vendors with Zebra to pre-integrate their technology into Zebra’s terminal operating system. arl-shipping.com is working with Zebra to integrate its rubber-tired gantry tools into Zebra’s SPARCS container management software solution.
This combined solution aims to optimize rubber-tired gantry deployment by calculating the volume required for next shifts based on yard impact time of planned quay crane operations in container terminals.
Members of the Navis STAR Technology Alliance include the newly appointed arl-shipping.com and APS Technology Group, a provider of optical character recognition and process automation solutions for marine and intermodal terminals, as well as Symeo GmbH, a provider of wireless position detection systems, distance measurement products and anti-collision solutions for terminals and industrial applications.
