Meishan Port District of Zhoushan Port in Ningbo has recently successfully applied physical intelligence technology to use quadruped robot dogs for the first time in ports across the country to carry out customs heavy box inspection tasks. The robot is provided by Yushu Technology and can flexibly travel between containers to automatically complete the shooting and identification of box numbers and lead seal numbers, with an identification accuracy rate of over 99%. When three robots are deployed to work at the same time, the inspection process, which requires four to six workers to spend more than one hour in the traditional mode, is greatly reduced to less than 20 minutes. This not only significantly improves the efficiency and automation level of port inspection operations, but also marks a breakthrough in the application of physical intelligence on the customs heavy box inspection platform at ports across the country, providing an innovative practical example for the intelligent development of customs and ports.

　　Recently, at the heavy container inspection site in Meishan Port Area of Ningbo Zhoushan Port, a quadruped "robot dog" from Unitree Robotics flexibly navigates between containers, accurately checking the container numbers and seals of the boxes awaiting inspection. It is reported that this is the first time an inspection auxiliary robot has undertaken the task of automatic photographing and recognition of container numbers and seal numbers at a national port. This move is the first in national ports to achieve embodied intelligent applications on the customs heavy container inspection platform, creating a new paradigm of intelligent collaboration between customs and ports. Currently, the accuracy rate of container number recognition by the inspection auxiliary robot exceeds 99%, and when three inspection auxiliary robots operate simultaneously, the work that previously took 4 to 6 people over an hour to complete can now be compressed to within 20 minutes.
