FIELD: transportation.
SUBSTANCE: automatic identification and storage system for containers equipped with radio frequency identification marks at stationary and temporary warehouses contains remote and local computers installed in operation rooms of warehouses, materials-handling machines equipped with sensors and container grippers, and radio frequency identification marks readers. Each of local computers is additionally equipped with wireless digital communication device with radio channel range coverage up to two kilometers and radio frequency of 2.4 GHz. Each of materials-handling machines is equipped with local computer and device for registration of vertical container positioning level and each of grips of materials-handling machines is equipped with horizontal and vertical container positioning sensors, grip acceleration sensor, and local computer. All local computers at operation rooms of stationary and temporary warehouses, materials-handling machines, and grips are interconnected and synchronised via wireless channels performing transmission to database of remote computers at operation rooms of information on coordinates of container vertical and horizontal position at warehouse via reliable random sequence of computers connected over radio channel.
EFFECT: broadening of system functionality, enhancement of container storage efficiency, securing of reliability of inventory.
