Internet of Cargo: Connected, Self-Aware Shipments

What it is

The Internet of Cargo extends IoT to the cargo itself, with devices on goods that sense their surroundings, communicate and react.

Capabilities

It uses sensor fusion to detect theft or unexpected stops, can spot GPS and GSM jamming, and can reroute data through nearby devices when a link is blocked.

Why it matters

Shipments become resilient and self-aware instead of passively tracked, improving security and reliability across the journey.
