PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Whimcon is a low-cost system designed to geolocate, route, and monitor the transport conditions of containers, convoys, and other logistics assets, both indoors and outdoors.
The solution ensures real-time control and traceability of assets during storage and transportation via mobile communication networks (2G/3G/4G), ensuring coverage in most locations.
Additionally, it monitors key parameters during transport to detect abnormal conditions and prevent cargo damage, thus improving safety and reliability throughout the logistics chain.
SOLUTION AND TECHNOLOGIES
Whimcon integrates a set of advanced technologies that enable real-time location, monitoring, and traceability of logistics assets throughout the entire transportation cycle. Its system is based on continuous geolocation, both indoors and outdoors, using conventional mobile networks (2G/3G/4G), ensuring global coverage and operational reliability in any environment.
The platform records routes and stopping points, providing detailed traceability of merchandise movements. It also incorporates sensors to monitor transport conditions, such as shocks, temperature, and vibrations, allowing for early identification of potential damage.
The system features a configurable, rechargeable battery that adapts the data transmission frequency based on logistics needs, optimizing energy consumption and ensuring autonomy over long journeys.
The entire ecosystem is supported by a customizable digital platform, adaptable to the specific characteristics of each company and logistics process. Furthermore, Whimcon adopts a flexible payment model based on data volume, allowing operating costs to be tailored to each client’s activity.
Contributed innovation
Whimcon stands out for offering an accessible and flexible logistics traceability and control solution, adapted to both large operators and small and medium-sized businesses. Its low deployment and operating costs facilitate its implementation in fleets of any size, democratizing access to advanced monitoring technologies.
Thanks to the use of commercial mobile networks (2G/3G/4G), Whimcon guarantees global coverage, allowing continuous monitoring without depending on specific infrastructures. Furthermore, its operational flexibility allows the data transmission frequency to be configured according to the needs of each route, optimizing the balance between accuracy and energy consumption.
The platform contributes to improving the safety and traceability of freight transport, as it allows for real-time identification of incidents such as sudden temperature changes, impacts, or unscheduled stops, thus reducing the risk of damage and loss.
Finally, its adaptable and customizable design facilitates integration into any logistics chain, adapting to the specific processes and requirements of each client. With this proposal, Whimcon consolidates its position as a key tool in the digitalization of transportation and logistics, providing real-time control and visibility with an efficient and tailored investment for any company.
