Abstract

Apparatus for the automatic identification of entities moved together by a transport vehicle comprising a first element, constrained to the transport vehicle which moves the entities together, and configured to acquire in digital form a trend within a first time interval of the acceleration, or first acceleration profile, to which the transport vehicle is subjected. A second element is constrained to each of the entities in motion, and configured to acquire in digital form a trend within a second time interval of the acceleration, or second acceleration profile, to which the entity is subjected. A wireless radio network may be used for the communication between the first element, and each second element.
