Abstract
  • Cargo containers are used for a diverse number of
    products ranging from sugar to military
    equipment.
  • The bureau of Transportation Statistics shows
    that in a 1997 Commodity Flow Survey, over 7
    Trillion dollars worth of goods traveled via
    intermodal cargo containers BTS.
  • Companies in the transportation sector are trying
    to find ways to make their business more
    efficient, while at the same time cutting costs.
  • Currently there are some technologies that offer
    a business solution, however they do not have the
    flexibility our prototype would offer.
