The automatic device for the fast collection and distribution of parcels that adopts high safety standards made ad hoc, accessible from any automotive vehicle without the need for a stop.
Equipped with a hydraulic piston system, it can be easily placed on the trailer of a truck and positioned in a short time on any road surface or quay.
Modular
The Shortcut hub architectural configuration is modular and suitable for different purpose and usage.
The flow
Customers without any interruption can pass through shortcut Hubs to receive all their packages in one place with the utmost convenience without any hassle
Each customer’s package will be provided to them in the customer window as they enter the entrance gate for receiving a package by identifying that unique customer on different attributes
As the customers are receiving their packages in the front of the Hub deliveries will be able to offload and load shipments on the other side
Deliveries from different vendors can drop packages in the container easily for customers to retrieve their package at their convenience
Autonomous
Each Shortcut hub is an automated and autonomous device capable of self-configuring within a network (Ai Net) specifically developed to collaboratively coordinate communication between all hub devices in the area.
Each hub that constitutes the AiNet extends the capacity of the system as a whole exponentially increasing the overall functional capacity of the AiNet network.
Both for the logistics operator who adopts Shortcut and for the consumer user, each device located in the area is immediately accessible and available on the AiNet network.
2 Shortcut AiNet
The network, being equipped with an artificial intelligence interconnecting each device, makes the transit of communications autonomous for the coordination of parcel routes between the devices, thus enabling a delocalised distribution of commands and the overall management of security.
AiNet is a network topology that connects all Shortcut hubs via DHT.
Each device on the network is totally autonomous in managing the routes, the availability of slots within the hubs, suggesting the best solution available to the logistics operator or consumer customer based on a set of logic, forecasts and many parameters that are evaluated in real time by the AINet network.
AiNet far for being a traditional physical server for the management and control of the underlying architecture, is actually composed by a number of hubs each of which is in fact a decentralized server node of an interconnected topology and it is able to solve requests in a collaborative way by communicating within the network with the other hubs via DHT.
Shortcut is an effective and efficient system that is able to solve a number of requests in the shortest time possible by optimizing the processing times while offering multiple solutions at a lower cost than traditional logistics.
Shortcut is a scalable solution able to satisfy a high number of requests both by increasing the capacity on the territory and thanks to the AiNet network.
The “n to n” connections between each Hub adopted by AiNET via DHT convert the effect of the unitary increase thanks to a COLLABORATIVE system that is capable to extend the global operational capacity in terms of the size of the available slots as well as of the number of possible alternatives.
The effect determined by a unitary increase of a Shortcut hub therefore translates both into a greater capacity for global operations in the area, and in a greater earning potential, costs thanks to the greater probability of earning, reducing costs thanks to segmentation on the territory and at the same time offering more options and alternatives (routes, exchange, distribution etc).
The solution found is therefore by definition a shortcut that offers the fastest and most efficient routes to the increase in traffic requests at the lowest possible cost for each route.
3 Run all: Hub & AiNet some examples
Shortcut compared to a traditional logistic it is a jump on the future because permit to integrate the actual logistic easily with an incredible time reduction and cost reduction for customer and shipper. You can compare in this video how it works the daily route without or with Shortcut.
Today. You without Shortcut
Ex. The person while is going to work want to catch is news paper, then his breakfast, has to pass to leave a pack on post office.. Then he has to tale the highway to get a original document from a lawyer in another town, get again the highway and reach finally the work office.. After works if has time should be able to go to the gym and it is not too late pass to buy something to eat for the dinner in some shop. While he was going to work that person should get up early spend a lot of time around on traffic jam and then back to home probably exhausted. Lost time: x7 Lost miles: x7 Pollution: x7
With Shortcut. Tomorrow
The person could plan to receive all the wished and favorite product in the closest hub along his working path. So in one shot he can reach the hub by car pass trough and get his news paper, breakfast, leave the pack. While is driving on highway he can pass from a gasoline self service pump or parking area without exit from the highway and catch is document the goes directly to the work. Then after work he has all the time for the gym because his shopping will wait him on the hub on way for home. Is Shortcut powerful enough? Lost time: x2 Saved Time: x5 Lost miles: x2 Saved miles: x5 Pollution: x2 Pollution reduction: x5
From the logistic perspective. "The liquid warehouse"
AINet system can work in different mode. A normal mode where Hubs are used to receive and dispatch items grouping the route for consumer and shipper on hubs placed on territory. A super mode where the system consider all the shipper from different company as one big huge fluid warehouse under Shortcut. The super mode put in connection different area, transfert items between Hubs automatically, by sharing items between shipper that are suitable to solve the route.
Logistic today. Door to door approach
Actual logistic approach is expensive in order of redundant miles that are the cause of extra cost, waste of time and huge pollution. We must consider also that in most of the case the customer could be away from home.
Shortcut AiNet normal mode
AiNet provide the best solution to group stuff on most available hub based on consumer request and requirement. No more door to door and fast path. Shipper can reduce path and serve efficiently their request with less cost in less time and obviously with less pollution.
Shortcut AiNet super mode
AiNet super mode consider with a preemptive approach all the delivery route for any hubs for any shipper. While the shippers should transfert an item to the other hubs in another town, the system provide to them a better solution. Indeed the system knows there is another shipper (the third on video) with more deliveries to carry on the second town. The third shipper has a item to bring on the first hub too. In that case the third shipper will be authorized to catch the deliveries of the other shipper and carry them on the second hub in the other town.
