Vision AI for Yards
Rover Platform
Smart Rover is a rear-view AI camera for terminal tractors and is trained to identify and track asset moves in real-time
Live Asset Visibility
Automatically learns and builds the view of the yard as assets are moved. Trailers, containers etc. are all tracked in real-time
Live Spotter Activity
Monitor live location, speed disposition (hauling, bobtailing, idling, dropping or hooking) of all the spotters in the yard
Deep Asset Detail
Without any dependency on staff or YMS, the Smart Rover can capture information that was previously not possible including asset type, color, manufacturer, and even chassis number where applicable
Spotter Productivity
Measure yard jockey productivity right out of the box. Moves by hour and detailed insights for every spotter is automatically summarized in real-time thanks to Rover's cutting edge GPS and kinematics
Rich Search Filters
Look up any asset or status of any location on blip's platform. Universal search available at your fingertips
Dwell Time & Spot
Find and report on assets that exceed a predefined dwell time or identify the asset sitting in the same spot for more than specified days
How It Works
????????????
End to End Asset tracking in the yard
IB drivers use Blip Rover mobile app to capture asset ID and drop location. Each yard truck is equipped with Blip’s Smart Rover that automatically captures asset info and every move using AI computer vision. Guard check enters OB asset ID in blip rover app confirming exit from the yard
Intelligent Rear View Camera
Install Blip’s Smart Rover on every yard spotter in under 60 minutes
Replay and Heat Map
For the first time, a replay of spotter activity is available for all tractors equipped with a Smart Rover. Research hotspots in the yard
Deep Scene Analysis
Blip's custom AI models are trained to capture information that was previously not possible. Automatically capture freight unit type, color, owner information, and chassis numbers where applicable
Business Insights
??????????????
Continuous Time-Study
Monitor historical activity patterns to visualize inefficiencies and facilitate proactive operational adjustments
Eliminate Asset Hunts
Physically hunting misplaced trailers drain hours of spotter productivity and create significant logistical bottlenecks.
Quickly Identify Detention
Track end-to-end trailer lifecycles to identify at-risk assets and eliminate unnecessary detention costs
Moves by Hour
Analyze and benchmark moves-per-hour across all spotters to identify performance gaps and provide targeted training for bottom-quartile spotters
Weighted Moves
Rover optimizes traditional moves-per-hour metrics by accounting for distance covered, providing a realistic assessment of spotter efficiency and throughput
Visually detect spotter inefficiency
The color-coded activity bars effectively separates time and distance for all the moves making it easier to spot bottlenecks
ROI
Test run the Smart Rover by installing it on one of your yard trucks and realise immediate benefits of visualization within hours of installation

YMS??
Typical ROI - Few Weeks yard jockey productivity with no user input. For the first time, a replayable timeline of activity is available for all tractors equipped with a Smart Rover. Visually monitor each spotter's location, speed, and moves in real-time segmented by activity type like hooking, hauling, bobtailing or idling.
Pay per use..
Affordable at any scale and size. No Minimums or on-going commitment. Pay per use
No Disruption - Unlike traditional active tag based solutions, no infrastructure changes are required
Works at any Yard - Marked or Unmarked
Works with/without YMS (Can integrate with any YMS, in-house databases, google sheets etc)
Unmarked
Typical ROI - Few Weeks yard jockey productivity with no user input. For the first time, a replayable timeline of activity is available for all tractors equipped with a Smart Rover. Visually monitor each spotter's location, speed, and moves in real-time segmented by activity type like hooking, hauling, bobtailing or idling.
