The Safety Challenge

In busy industrial environments, safety is paramount. Forklifts and pedestrians often share the same space, leading to frequent near misses and potential accidents.

Introducing Powerfleet’s Pedestrian Proximity Detection system, designed to significantly reduce the risk of accidents between forklifts and pedestrians. Our advanced AI technology offers a proactive approach to safety, helping you maintain a safer and more efficient operation.

Solving Your
Safety Challenges

No more blind spots! Pedestrian Proximity Detection solution detects and prevents potential hazards and impending danger, all without the need for wearable tags or attire.

When you pair this system with our industrial telematics data, you unlock a trove of valuable insights. These insights help you identify areas for enhancement and offer valuable coaching for drivers, fostering a culture of safety within your facility.

The solution can also work hand in hand with our Forklift Gateway product to not only identify near-misses but also capture event details like breach location, time, and driver identification.

The Pedestrian Proximity Detection solution can function as a standalone system and alert the operator to help avoid an incident or can be integrated with our Speed Manager to slow or deactivate the accelerator pedal when an alert zone is breached.

The Pedestrian Proximity Detection system assists the operator in situations where people or equipment may be operating in blind spots, or the operator is temporarily distracted or fatigued.

Most operators use our Pedestrian Proximity Detection system to generate two primary alert zones. A caution Zone, shown in yellow, triggers a visual and audible alert for the operator when the zone is breached. Integrated with our Speed Manager, this also reduces the forklift’s speed.

The Danger Zone, shown in red, triggers a visual and audible warning for the operator when the closest zone is breached. For equipment integrated with our Speed Manager, a red zone breach reduces the acceleration to a minimal speed.

Connecting with Powerfleet’s Pedestrian Proximity Detection system is easy through Wi-Fi, Cellular LTE, or Bluetooth.

Pedestrian Proximity Detection can operate up to four cameras, and each camera can project up to 5 independent alert zones – all processed through our platform. Options include an in-cab display monitor, a highly visible Pedestrian Alert Lightning System, and integration to our Forklift Gateway.

For two-camera systems, Pedestrian Proximity Detection automatically switches cameras to only detect in the forklift’s direction of travel.

The system can alert for as many people or objects as is required – keeping your environment as safe as possible.
