Efficient Strategies for Coordinating Autonomous Vehicles for Maximising Australia's Waterfront Productivity

该项目将通过大量有效地部署自动驾驶车辆来提高集装箱码头的生产率。可实际部署和可扩展的算法的项目成果(实现为实时软件)将显著增强Patrick Stevedores Holdings的世界领先技术以及此类自动化系统在全球范围内彻底改变材料处理的潜力。除了技术商业化的好处外，该项目还将扩大其在开发材料处理自主系统方面的领先地位，增强澳大利亚工业建设的前沿技术，并缓解迫在眉睫的产能限制，从而使澳大利亚经济受益。

This project will lift the productivity of container terminals by enabling the effective deployment of autonomous vehicles in large numbers. The project outcomes of practically deployable and scalable algorithms, realised as live software, will significantly enhance Patrick Stevedores Holdings' world leading technology and the potential of such automation systems to revolutionise material handling around the globe. Beyond the benefits of technology commercialisation, the project will also benefit Australia economically through extending its leading role in developing autonomous systems for material handling, enhancing the frontier technologies for building Australian industries, and alleviating looming capacity constraints.
