Abstract : *(250~1000 words)

Owing to the high capacity, low costs, and environment-friendly characteristics, shipping has an important role in the sustainable development of the economy, society, and environment. However, with the development of the water transportation economy, the capacity of many navigation locks, such as the Three Gorges ship lock and the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal ship lock, has been hard to meet the increasing demand for passing through the locks. Thus, they have become the "bottleneck" limiting the navigation of the waterways. In the background of the vigorous development of intelligent transportation, Intelligent Locks has been promoted through extensive research of Intelligent Locks model, exclusive technology, and intelligent equipment, which is of great significance to improve the efficiency of vessels passing through the locks and enhance the function of waterways. This review starts from the current situation of the research on Intelligent Locks. We summarize the focus of the research on Intelligent Locks and the main tasks of Intelligent Locks. Moreover, the contents of Intelligent Locks are also introduced, such as the network communication platform, intelligent ship identification, positioning system, safety detection system, an intelligent guidance system for shipping, etc. Finally, we conclude that it is the informatization and intelligence that can improve the navigation ability and the management level of ship locks. At the same time, compared with the huge capital demand and the long-period construction of new ship locks, it will have obvious advantages of capital and time by attaching great importance to the automation, informatization, intelligent constructions, and applications of new technologies of existing ship locks.
