For autonomous trucks operating in logistics yards


Outrider, a North American company, has just introduced a revolutionary safety system for autonomous trucks operating in logistics yards, and the promise is bold, to make these operations safer than any human work.


Automate the movement of trailers in yards, a chaotic environment full of trucks, forklifts and workers, but now all of that is about to be controlled by cutting-edge artificial intelligence, along with security system built from scratch.




The secret behind all this technology.


A set of 14 redundant protection mechanisms that monitor the environment in real time and are capable of detecting more than 200,000 types of operational risks. If something goes out of standard, the system stops immediately, avoiding any accident.


Based on sensors, and with reinforcement learning, Outrider's autonomous trucks automatically connect brake and power cables, the trailers use high-precision robotic arms and operate with electric vehicles manufactured by giants such as Nvidia, Yascawa and R8 Shepard.


The entire system works on a secure platform validated by international standards such as ISO 26262 and ISO 21448, complying with the highest standards of automotive and cyber security. In addition, an intelligent routing system increases the efficiency of maneuvers in the yards by up to 10 times, reducing bottlenecks and improving cargo flow.


Outrider is already in operation with partner companies and will begin the first full implementations in the second half of 2025, in 2026 and 2027, the system will be available to everyone through a subscription model that includes cloud-based software, automated inventory tracking and full support, this means that any company will be able to transform its yard into a 100% autonomous, safe and efficient environment, without the need to modify existing trailers.
