Knowing the locations & statuses of all luggage at an airport and being able to predict the real-time flow and arrival timings.
Data Flows
Title
Devices
Icon
Description
Various types of cameras at all critical locations
Real-time image data to be collected as well as other sensor data (belts motion, status, etc)
Title
Connectivity
Icon
Description
Images transmitted to edge and enterprise storage
Develop MV models driven by analytics needs
Title
Edge Compute
Icon
Description
AI (MV) to analyse images in (5G) real-time so direct action to be taken
Real-time ML applied in other areas such as belts status
Title
Cloud Compute & Storage
Icon
Description
All data is stored in enterprise data storage, where data ownership belongs to the company
Title
Applications & Services
Icon
Description
Non-critical MV/ML models execution
Automated processes by default
Predictive maintenance is relevant here
Title
Inform Decision Makers
Icon
Description
Report potential future failure
Title
Support Decision Making
Icon
Description
Predict potential bottlenecks and alternate plan for optimised flow
Application Logic
Description
Assume that real-time (5G) is the norm which means that direct intervention is possible.
In addition to passenger data, collect data such as operating temperature, belts status, rotating equipment, etc. 🡪 All inputs for predictive maintenance.
Description
All AI (ML and MV) models will be developed through a joint effort of SME and data scientists.
Development of these models will be iterative (will require time) to achieve an appropriate quality level.
Both MV and ML AI models will be adopted at identified critical equipment, as it provides different improvements in baggage handling:
Speed of the individual suite cases
Stability and reliability of the baggage facility set up at the airport
Description
MV and ML models will assist to provide alerts for predictive maintenance.
All data will be stored in Enterprise data storage, provided as needed for AI applications.
ML can also be used to perform prediction of baggage loads, enabling decisions to maximise throughput.
Expected benefits
5G will enable real-time perspective (optimised over 4G)
Shorter waiting time for passengers at the airport for baggage collection
Better management of equipment delivering higher service availability
Key value created
Optimised baggage throughput and increased service efficiency
