The most complex tasks carried out in logistics are carried out with the implementation of robotization and artificial intelligence. For this reason, a new generation of autonomous mobile robots has been developed. These have been designed to streamline various jobs that are difficult for humans.

Autonomous mobile robots fulfill functions of location, tracking and transfer of inventory in the different facilities and warehouses. Its system equipped with artificial intelligence makes the understanding of these activities have up to 50% extra of the performance of a common worker.

Conocido originalmente como el Año Nuevo Lunar o el Festival de Primavera, se celebra al comienzo de la segunda luna después del solsticio de invierno de ahí donde proviene su nombre.

Este 2024, marca el cambio del año del conejo de agua al año del dragón de madera, símbolo que rigió por última vez en 1964. Antes ocurrió en 1904 y así sucesivamente cada 60 años. El dragón es el quinto animal del zodíaco y en la cultura china representa buena suerte, fuerza, salud y el elemento masculino yang.

Esto provoca falta de disponibilidad de contenedores, retrasos en el transporte y aumento en los costos de envio gracias a esta temporada tan alta y de gran importancia para los países asiáticos. Además, las redes de transporte por carretera, ferroviario y aéreo también pasan a través de importantes retrasos debido al aumento del tráfico y la escasez de mano de obra.
