Swissport has signed a proof-of-concept agreement with Speedcargo, a leading provider of logistics technology.
Its artificial intelligence (AI) based solutions Cargo Eye and Cargo Mind will support Swissport's digitization drive, help improve overall logistics efficiency and increase cargo capacity in warehouses and on flights.
Swissport will launch proof of concept trials of the Cargo Eye sizing system and the AI-powered Cargo Mind software solution at its Johannesburg and Tel Aviv air cargo warehouses. The Speedcargo solutions enable full 3D scanning at the time of acceptance of a shipment and ensure immediate and optimized planning and utilization of the available cargo space, while considering applicable regulations and other constraints.

August 21, 2019: SATS, a Singapore-based ground handler and Singaporean research platform TUMCREATE will be working together to explore commercialisation opportunities for their artificial intelligence (AI) powered robotic air cargo system, SPEEDCARGO.
SPEEDCARGO is a system comprised of three of the companies’ products – CARGO EYE, CARGO MIND, and CARGO ARM.
CARGO EYE produces a digital fingerprint for incoming cargo by dimensioning accepted cargo in real-time using a 3D camera system.
The companies are currently working to enhance CARGO MIND and CARGO ARM, which work to optimise cargo palletisation through intelligent unit load device (ULD) planning and automatic ULD packing, respectively, with the aim of commercialising each product in phases.
The timeline for the completed project has not been released, but the integrated SPEEDCARGO system will run on an AI-powered operating system enabling them to connect data for end-to-end optimisation of cargo operations.
Ultimately, companies will be able to input volume, weight and other criteria into the SPEEDCARGO system to optimise their cargo hold, SATS and TUMCREATE added.
Swissport Kenya has been awarded the IATA CEIV Fresh certification for perishable cargo, making it the only ground handler with this certification at Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.Swissport also is the first ground services provider in Sub-Saharan Africa to attain this standard.
CEIV is IATA’s Center of Excellence for Independent Validators.Nairobi is a major hub for perishables in East and Central Africa and perishables represent about 80 percent of cargo handled by Swissport in Kenya.
