Technology company Prodevelop presented today at the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) the results of its participation in the European project aerOS, an initiative under the Horizon Europe programme aimed at creating an intelligent infrastructure to digitalize and automate operations in ports and terminals.
The pilot, developed in collaboration with EUROGATE Container Terminal Limassol (Cyprus) and the Cyprus University of Technology (CUT), applies IoT, Edge Computing and Artificial Intelligence technologies to optimise asset management and operational safety in the Cypriot port.
The pilot focuses on two key use cases: predictive maintenance for container handling equipment (Straddle Carriers and Ship-To-Shore cranes) and risk prevention through computer vision at the edge, improving real-time efficiency and reducing the need for high-bandwidth data transmission.
“European collaboration through projects such as aerOS highlights the potential of port digitalization to enhance the competitiveness and sustainability of the maritime industry. At Prodevelop, we contribute our expertise in system integration and operational analytics to create smarter and safer ports,” said Eduardo Garro Crevillén, R&D Manager at Prodevelop.
The aerOS project (Autonomous, scalable, tRustworthy, intelligent European meta Operating System) aims to design an open and scalable architecture for the IoT– Edge–Cloud continuum, enabling the adoption of intelligent digital services in industrial environments, including European ports.
With more than 30 years of experience, Prodevelop continues to position itself as a trusted technology partner in the digital transformation of the maritime sector, delivering advanced solutions for port operations management, environmental efficiency and systems interoperability.
