System
Operation
1. Vehicles are typically fitted
with an RFID tag, which is
used to automatically
identify the vehicle from
within the database.
2. Trucks are initially scanned
empty and this empty scan
profile is stored within the
system.
3. Loaded trucks are then
scanned and their loaded
scan profiles are compared
against their stored empty
scan.
4. The system will then
automatically generate the
carried volume within the
loaded vehicle.
