Question 1

What cameras do we need?

Accepted Answer

We support standard HD cameras (1080p+) with RTSP/ONVIF. If you have existing gate cameras, we can often integrate them. Our team conducts a site survey to recommend optimal placement for OCR accuracy.

Question 2

How accurate is the OCR on dirty plates?

Accepted Answer

Our OCR achieves 98%+ accuracy on clean plates, 92-95% on moderately dirty plates. For challenging conditions, we use multi-frame averaging and confidence scoring. Low-confidence reads are flagged for manual verification.

Question 3

Does this work with our TMS?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We have pre-built connectors for SAP TM, Blue Yonder, Oracle TMS, Manhattan, and other major systems. Appointment data syncs automatically, and yard events flow back in real-time via REST APIs.

Question 4

Can we track trailers without GPS devices?

Accepted Answer

Yes. YardLytix uses camera-based tracking and slot sensors. No GPS hardware required on trailers. This works for both owned assets and third-party carriers without requiring driver cooperation.

Question 5

What's the typical time to value?

Accepted Answer

Most customers see measurable dwell reduction within 6-8 weeks of pilot deployment. Full ROI (detention cost savings, turn rate improvements) is typically realized within 90 days as the system scales across all gates.
