Project description
A smart and simple device to keep track of cargo
The global shipping of containers, trailers, cargo boxes and pallets as well as air and rail wagons is growing at a rate of 25 % and is expected to reach an enormous 23 million units by 2024. This growth is also giving rise to the tracking industry. There is a need for real-time data on the location and condition of cargo in transit. The EU-funded TRAXEN tracking project has a solution: a miniaturised, decade-long life tracker that is cheaper and easier to maintain compared to current devices. According to the project, the new device is also more reliable in terms of managing missing or misplaced cargo.
