An improved system detects an environmental anomaly in a shipping container and initiates a mediation response through a generated layered alert notification. The system includes sensor-based ID nodes associated with packages within the container, and a command node mounted to the container communicating with the ID nodes and an external transceiver on a vehicle transporting the container. The command node is programmed to detect sensor data from the ID nodes; compare the sensor data to package environmental thresholds in context data related to each ID node; detect the environmental anomaly when the comparison indicates an environmental condition for at least one package exceeds its environmental threshold; responsively generate a layered alert notification identifying a mediation recipient and mediation action, and establishing a mediation response priority based upon the comparison; and transmit the layered alert notification to the transceiver unit to initiate a mediation response related to the mediation action.

A packaged article is composed of a bulk bag having a top end and a bottom end. Further included is a pallet having a first side and a second side. Also included are an outer bag having a first closed end and a first open end and a heatshrink bag having a second closed end and a second open end. The first closed end of the outer bag is between the bottom end of the bulk bag and the first side of the pallet. The first open end of the outer bag is gathered over the top end of the bulk bag to enclose the bulk bag within the outer bag. The second closed end of the heatshrink bag is proximate to the top end of the bulk bag and the second open end contacts the second side of the pallet.

A robot comprises an auger-based drive system, a memory, and a processor coupled with the memory and configured to control movement of the robot, via the auger-based drive system, relative to grain in a flat storage bulk store. The processor is further configured to direct traversal, by the robot, of a portion of a pile of the grain in the flat storage bulk store. The traversal is performed to incite sediment gravity flow in the portion of pile of grain system to walk-down the grain in the portion. The sediment gravity flow is incited by disruption of viscosity of the portion of the pile of grain through agitation of the portion of the pile of grain by auger rotation of the auger-based drive.

A system for detecting and verifying an environmental anomaly within a shipping container (transported on a transit vehicle having an external transceiver) has wireless sensor-based ID nodes at different locations within the container and multiple command nodes mounted to the container. A first command node is programmatically configured to be operative to detect the sensor data broadcasted from the ID nodes; responsively identify the anomaly based upon the sensor data detected by that command node; and transmit a validation request to another command node. The other command node is configured to be operative to also detect the sensor data broadcasted from the ID nodes; receive the validation request from the first command node; verify the anomaly in response to the validation request and based upon the sensor data detected by the second command node; and broadcast a verification message based upon whether the anomaly for the shipping container is verified.

A type of liquid bag with the function of box protection for multi-functional transportation and storage, including box body, non-independent box body liquid bag, independent box body liquid bag, non-independent box body liquid bag includes upper liquid bag body, liquid bag upper port valve, liquid bag lower port valve and lower liquid bag body. The box is an open design at one end. The box body is set with a lower liquid bag body. The lower liquid bag body is located at the open end of the box with a liquid bag lower valve. The lower liquid bag body is not in contact with the side wall of the inner cavity of the box. The upper liquid bag body is set above the lower liquid bag body.

A composite pod body that is compatible with the internal carriage mounting of an aerial vehicle for stowage of equipment or other items during long term aerial travel or deployment. The pod system may have large access doors with quick release latches and removable end caps for ergonomic access and versatility of stowage. The pod design may maximize the usable volume of the internal carriage. Further, standard NATO lug spacing may be utilized to ensure military compatibility. The pod may also have anti-roll or stabilization feet integrated with the body to ensure safety. The composite body may be lightweight when compared to legacy generation pods.
