ETIHAD Cargo has launched three artificial intelligence (AI)-powered products designed to boost cargo capacity on flights, reports London's Air Cargo News.
In 2021, etihad Cargo entered into a proof-of-concept agreement with Speedcargo Technologies. Following successful trials of Speedcargo's AI solutions, Etihad Cargo has rolled out the AI-powered products - Amplifi, Cargo Eye and Assemble.
These products are designed to boost efficiency, digitize and standardize cargo handling across Etihad Cargo's network, and enhance service levels for the carrier's customers and partners.
Etihad Cargo uses Amplifi to optimize cargo loads on each flight. The technology calculates free and usable capacity based on booked cargo, aircraft type and cargo offer.
Cargo Eye is a scalable, modular system that captures cargo dimensions and volume data. Powered by Microsoft's IOT Edge solutions and Speedcargo's proprietary algorithms, Cargo Eye allows Etihad Cargo to digitize cargo as it enters the carrier's ground handling stations, enabling the real-time sharing of cargo information for load planning, build-up planning and forward operations.
Etihad Cargo will deploy Assemble across the carrier's network of ground handling stations to facilitate the digital planning and build-up of ULDs using the load plans generated by Amplifi.
Martin Drew, senior vice president - global sales and cargo, said: 'Since embarking on its digitalization strategy in 2018, Etihad Cargo has developed, trialled and launched new technologies and solutions to provide customers and partners with an improved service offering.
'Creating digital audit trails of how cargo is received and handled will benefit Etihad Cargo's customers by providing a more seamless end-to-end experience and improving the productivity and efficiency of planners and ground handling partners, with the ability to handle multiple flights simultaneously.'
