Abstract
This paper presents the process of designing, manufacturing, and operating a scale model that simulates the operation of Cam Ranh port, serving as a training and research tool in the field of logistics and seaport operations. The model was developed to visualize operational processes such as ship dispatching, container loading and unloading, and wharf equipment control, thereby improving the quality of practical teaching. The scale model features an automatic control system that utilizes Arduino microcontrollers, sensors, and electromechanical modules to simulate port operation functions in a realistic environment. The implementation results demonstrate that the model is highly interactive, meets the requirements of technical simulation, has low manufacturing costs, and offers flexible expansion capabilities, making it suitable for application in technical, logistics, and maritime training facilities.
Keywords: scale model, seaport simulation, Cam Ranh port, automatic control, Arduino, port logistics.
