Home » Argu Products » OCR for Ports
Container OCR that reads a container ID, the truck plate underneath it, and the vessel name in one pass, so one camera covers what three checks used to.
The differentiator is reading a gate move as one event instead of three. Container number recognition, truck plate capture, and vessel identification all run off the same pass, linking the three together instead of leaving an operator to match separate logs by hand. The Port of Miami is both an investor in Argu and a customer, which is the kind of reference that matters most on a page built for terminal operators. Gate automation is one part of the port security and terminal throughput picture.
A terminal gate typically needs three separate checks: the container ID, the truck plate, and the vessel it came from or is headed to. Argu's container ocr agent reads all three off the same camera feed in a single pass, streaming each into a table as it goes. For an operations manager, that means less time per truck at the gate and a documented record to point to when a damage claim is disputed.

Container Number Recognition in One Pass
Reads the container ID directly off the box as it moves through the gate, without a separate handheld scan or a second camera pointed at just the container.

Truck Plate and Vessel Name in the Same Read
Captures the truck plate and the vessel name alongside the container ID, so a single gate camera covers three checks a terminal used to run separately.

Gate Automation for Moving Trucks
Built for a truck that is not stopping for long, reading and streaming the data as the vehicle passes rather than requiring it to idle at a checkpoint.

A Table, Not Three Separate Logs
Container ID, truck plate, and vessel name stream into one table as each read completes, giving operations a single record instead of three to reconcile.
These are the core principles that define how Argu approaches every deployment. Our solutions are built to work on your existing infrastructure, require no engineering overhead, and deliver measurable results from day one. Every feature is designed with one goal: giving your team the intelligence to act faster, with more confidence, and without adding complexity.

Container OCR reads three fields in one pass
Container ID, truck plate, and vessel name are captured off the same camera feed instead of requiring three separate checkpoints or scans.

Built to cut gate dwell time
Reading happens as a truck moves through the gate, which is the direct lever on how long each vehicle spends waiting to be processed.

A record for disputed damage claims
Every read streams into a table, giving a terminal a time stamped record to reference when a damage claim needs to be resolved.

Backed by a real port customer
The Port of Miami is both an investor and a customer, using the same multimodal port intelligence described on this page.

One camera instead of three checkpoints
Container number recognition, truck plate capture, and vessel identification all run off a single gate camera in one pass.

Faster gate moves
Gate automation reads a truck as it moves through, instead of requiring it to idle while separate checks are run one at a time.

A record built for dispute resolution
Every read is time stamped into a table, giving a terminal documentation to reference the moment a damage claim comes in.

Proven at a working port
The Port of Miami runs this on its own gates as both an investor and a customer, not a reference from a lab environment.
