The ASRS is an automatic shipboard storeroom system that can be configured to store Navy-standard pallets, Joint Modular Intermodal Containers, or any other packaging container, particularly aboard a T-AKE class cargo vessel. The ASRS provides increased throughput, fully selective offloading and workload reduction in a highly reliable, low-maintenance system in high sea state (SS) conditions (SS 5 operating/SS 9 survivability). The demonstrator, currently operating at a simulated eight-degree roll with a three-degree pitch, will be tested later this month aboard a large, medium-speed, roll-on/roll-off ship in Norfolk, Virginia (VA).
