Release time:

2025-09-28

Recently, HIRI FUTURE has obtained fully independent intellectual property rights. Intelligent Container Positioning System ICPS (Intelligent Container Positioning System) Successfully implemented multiple Quay Cranes at the North Port in Malaysia. Helping to achieve a new leap in automation and intelligent transformation and upgrading.

The successful implementation of this project is no coincidence—HIRI FUTURE has been operating in Malaysia for a long time. August 2024, To the National Digital Corporation of Malaysia ( DNB ) Invited, Dr. Liu Jiantao, Deputy General Manager of HIRI FUTURE, attended the roundtable conference on “The Path to Digital Port 4.0 Transformation” chaired by YB Tuan Gobind Singh Deo, Malaysia’s Minister of Digital Affairs, and shared HIRI FUTURE’s active exploration and practical achievements in the field of smart ports at the roundtable. 。

After that, the HIRI FUTURE team I have visited several port terminals in Malaysia multiple times. Go deep into the field to understand the needs of terminal customers, and conduct technical exchanges and training. Output HIRI FUTURE's full-stack smart port experience and provide customers with tailor-made AI solutions. The solution has received widespread customer recognition and approval, ultimately leading to the project's successful implementation. In addition, the HIRI FUTURE Intelligent Container Positioning System is still... Tianjin Port, Ningbo Port More than 200 sets of equipment have been deployed at over 30 large port terminals, including Jiangsu Port, Guangxi Port, and Xiamen Port. 。

As a pioneer and leader in AI solutions for smart ports, HIRI FUTURE actively responds to the nation's call for "high-quality development" and "jointly building the 'Belt and Road' initiative," continuously promoting Chinese enterprises' scientific and technological innovation achievements to go global. — Export and implement our comprehensive experience in the construction and development of smart ports in China to major overseas ports in Brazil, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, and other countries. Help ports and terminals around the world achieve a green, automated, and intelligent transformation and upgrade.
