2、ns for logistics are diversified to meet the highly customized demands of different clients in different industries. The goal of the sensing solutions is to provide high transparency and visibility of the process with minimum costs and frustrations. As shown on the right, the market is fragmented, f

3、illed with players offering highly customized solutions supporting logistics at different stages. Overall, the market will be continuously fragmented without standout standards or comprehensive solutions. In the meantime, we expect gradual standardization and consolidation of sensing solutions withi

5、ment of the flow of physical goods and information between the point of origin and the destination. Every stage of the supply chain involves logistics. It can be moving the raw materials, delivering products, or transferring assets between departments. Logistics is an important part of the supply ch

Using case studies, we highlight how sensors are used in each part of the logistics process to achieve appropriate goa

8、ls 6 We briefly introduce the four critical points in logistics. Using eight case studies (in the full report), we discuss key challenges and how sensing solutions can be used to overcome challenges throughout the logistics process. In each case study, we describe: The pain points addressed by the s

Transit 7 Why its important Transit is the step that involves physically moving goods and related information from point A to point B using various vehicles. This step is the most important within the logistics process and usually suffers from low infor

14、mation synchronization. How sensing solutions help Sensing solutions can facilitate the flow of information on assets and help stakeholders gain end-to-end visibility. Challenges There is a lack of transparency, predictability, and operational agility around continuous changes during transit. These

15、challenges arise due to roadblocks to information flow caused by both technical challenges and human-driven factors. Use cases Procedural visibility: Seamless location tracking throughout the process Condition monitoring for high-value goods Improving utilization of capacity Security and control Cli

CASE STUDY SEAMLESS LOCATION TRACKING Sensolus partners with Airbus to track returnable transport packaging (RTP) 9 Use Case Airbus, on

20、e of the biggest airplane manufacturers globally, has a complicated logistics system that it uses to ship parts to sites throughout the world. Airbus integrated Sensolus solution with its IoT platform to provide full location visibility for its assets. Sensolus GPS trackers offer real-time location

21、data on RTP, as they transit among Airbus warehouses and international departments. Key technologies Sensolus key technology is its low-power GPS trackers integrated with various sensors. The GPS trackers communicate using Bluetooth Low Energy, Wi-Fi, and Sigfox protocols. By leveraging built-in sen

22、sors, the tracker can perform self-calibration and decode the transport environment, such as in-flight, truck, or shipping vessels, thereby allowing it to accommodate various environments. LUX TAKE Sensolus and Airbus use case is special. Airbus use case only involves Airbus itself as the point of o

23、rigin and destination, meaning that the company can benefit from the sensor-enabled visibility of asset flow to optimize its logistical efficiency, container utilization, and crew agility without worrying about returning the devices.

Despite the importance of using emerging sensor technologies to achieve affordable, stable, and long-lasting solutions, they only overcome data entry

25、 challenges. The players in the market offer solutions optimized for target applications. The solutions are usually unique and do not overlap with their competitors offerings. The fragmented market is both beneficial and detrimental. For solution providers, such a market is easy to penetrate. On the

26、 other hand, the lack of comprehensive and standardized platforms increases the costs, especially when multiple pain points need to be tackled. Furthermore, despite the importance and readiness of the technologies, the market may show some hesitation and frustrations. LUX TAKE Location tracking Cond

30、emain fragmented, with increasing diversified solutions Diversified requirements and asset types will keep the market fragmented and filled with industry-specific sensing solutions. Furthermore, maturing sensor technologies will motivate innovations in emerging solutions to address unmet demand and

31、untackled pain points. This will introduce more diversified solutions. Consolidation will occur within each industry sector Although the market will become more fragmented, within each industry, we expect consolidation to occur for two reasons: 1) availability of mature and low-cost sensor technolog

32、ies, and 2) it will be easier to identify shared demands and issues. Sensing solution providers will focus more on analytics Sensor-collected data tells what happened during the logistics processes, but analytics reveals the root cause behind the events. Sensing solution providers will develop analy

33、tics for their sensing solutions, but the process may be slow for small companies due to their slow market penetrations.
