Neubiberg, May 2, 2024 – From June 11 to 13, Symeo will once again exhibit at the TOC Europe trade fair in Rotterdam. At Booth L46 in Hall 1 of the world’s largest trade exhibition for port, ship, and terminal technology at the Ahoy Rotterdam event center, Symeo will present industrial radar technology for reliable positioning in all weather conditions. In addition to showing its current products, Symeo will also discuss future technologies with the experts in attendance and provide information on the current status of HD Imaging Radar, a field in which the company is currently conducting research and development
With HD Imaging Radar, the experts at Symeo want to combine the reliability of radar sensors with the high resolution of laser scanners in order to ultimately replace optical sensors in areas where dust or weather conditions cause too many problems. At the TOC Europe, port logistics and crane technology experts will have the opportunity to learn about this latest development in industrial radar technology at an early stage and to discuss its potential for automation tasks.
“After about six years of intensive research, we are now at the exciting point where the biggest technical challenges of HD Imaging Radar technology have been solved and we can transition into the concrete product development phase. We believe that this is a breakthrough in the development of radar technology that offers completely new solutions for numerous fields of application. I look forward to discussing the resulting opportunities in more depth with our customers and interested parties at the TOC Europe industry event,” says Thomas Hörl-Weinhold, VP Industry Business Development at Symeo, who will be available for discussions on all three days of the trade fair.
Failure safety on display
Symeo’s patented LPR® (Local Positioning Radar) technology has proven itself worldwide in ports and container terminals as a fail-safe and maintenance-free solution that can reliably detect positions, distances, and movements. In addition to its accuracy, the great advantage of this technology lies in its robustness: radar sensors work reliably even in the presence of dirt, extreme dust, vibrations, high levels of sunlight, fog, or precipitation. Visitors to Symeo’s TOC booth can
experience these properties on a demonstrator featuring a sensor that measures the distance to a moving reflector through boxes in which adverse conditions such as rain or a snowstorm are simulated.
Sensors and software
Symeo will also present the Collision Control Center (CCC), a modular assistance and management software application specifically designed to avoid collisions between cranes and objects. Three sensor systems will also be on display:
