Autonomous operations in transportation
For ports, trains, and cars, automation provides additional safety for passengers, operational flexibility, and reduced costs.
The Indy Autonomous Challenge
Cisco powered the Indy Autonomous Challenge at Texas Motor Speedway. The competition featured autonomous race cars traveling at 150 miles per hour with Cisco enabling all in-vehicle and car-to-trackside connectivity.
Ports and terminals
Autonomous guide vehicles, ship-to-shore transfer cranes, and rubber tire gantry cranes speed up operations.
Trains
Driverless trains increase throughput by increasing the frequency of trains on a metro line while delivering a superior safety track record.
Vehicles
Fully autonomous vehicles may still be in development, but partial autonomy is here. And with it, drivers get back time normally needed to fully focus their attention on the road.
Transportation autonomous operations use cases
Terminal automation - Ports
Throughput demands are driving automation and data analytics across the globe.
Signaling and control systems - Roadways
Reliable and redundant connections eliminate service disruptions and increase operational efficiency.
Ground operations - Airports
Mitigate errors and keep people and their goods safe for a better travel experience.
Industrial automation in manufacturing
Automated storage and retrieval systems, autonomous guided vehicles, and robots improve efficiencies.
Digital Manufacturing
Connect and digitize industrial and production environments to significantly improve business operation outcomes.
Improve operational efficiency
Securely connect and digitize industrial and production environments.
Autonomous manufacturing use cases
Industrial automation
Optimize operations to drive efficiency, enhance safety, and create a competitive differentiation.
Advanced warehouse operations
Maximize uptime and facility-wide productivity while reducing turnaround time.
Remote operations
Improve equipment utilization and reduce operating costs.
Remote fleet operations in mining
Autonomous and remote solutions enable mining companies to centralize their control of haulage, dozing, and drilling without putting people in harm's way.
Improve productivity and efficiency
Better utilized resources, such as water and energy, increase haulage performance and production time.
Increase worker safety and security
Safety improvements for dozer operators mean fewer incidents involving vehicles and haul trucks in mining operations.
Reduce costs and greater agility
Shortened reaction times to production-impacting failures, market trends, industry fluctuations, and shifting demand improve the bottom line.
Autonomous mining use cases
Autonomous and remote control
Build autonomous, semi-autonomous, and tele-remote operations for haulage, dozing, and drilling in surface and underground mines.
Fleet management
Pervasive communications between haul trucks, shovels, and crushers connect these key assets across the mine.
