MONITORING SYSTEM FOR ANTICIPATING DANGEROUS CONDITIONS DURING THE TRANSPORTATION OF A CARGO OVER LAND

摘要

The invention relates to a monitoring system for anticipating dangerous conditions during the transportation of a cargo over land, comprising a device and method for the detection and reporting of instability and the risk of tipping of a cargo. The invention measures, registers and analyses the physical dynamics of a cargo transported over land, and generates anticipatory alarms specific to conditions of risk of instability and of tipping associated with the route via which a vehicle is travelling. These alarms, generated by the measuring equipment, are displayed in the cabin of the vehicle itself so that the driver can perform actions to reduce the condition of risk, and accidents or conditions of risk are thereby prevented. This technology has a modular configuration and permits the installation thereof in any vehicle.
