Partnering with Intenseye, Cathay Cargo Terminal is using advanced computer vision and AI algorithms to monitor safety and security hazards in real time to mitigate potential incidents and improve safety in the workplace.
It is the first air cargo terminal in Hong Kong to integrate AI into existing CCTV infrastructure.
The technology uses the existing CCTV network to monitor for potential workplace safety or security hazards and can detect intrusions amongst other terminal-specific scenarios.
Cathay Cargo Terminal and Intenseye have partnered to develop unique cargo terminal features including real-time alerts if shipments appear to be unattended at truck docks.
Mark Watts, Chief Operating Officer of Cathay Cargo Terminal, said: “We take safety and security extremely seriously. We see AI as an important tool to enhance and augment our existing safety management system, to help ‘see the unseen’, and to further strengthen hazard reporting and leading safety indicators as we strive to ensure a zero-harm workplace.”
Sercan Esen, CEO of Intenseye, added: “It’s exciting to see Cathay Cargo Terminal lead the way as the first cargo terminal to adopt our technology, tailored specifically to their needs. Our focus has always been on helping companies create safer environments, and it’s great to see the real-world impact of these new features in improving day-to-day safety and efficiency.”
Cathay Cargo Terminal has also started installing AI on all X-ray machines at the terminal to enhance its Enhanced Lithium Screening programme and plans to introduce AI into its Thermal Imaging programme in 2025.
