This solution will really help with our new Toyota three and four-stage mast trucks. The new trucks have large blind spots making it hard to see pedestrians.

Solving Your Safety Challenges Together
Swiftly detect potential hazards and impending danger, all without the need for wearable tags or attire. But that’s not all. When you pair this system with our industrial telematics data, you unlock a treasure trove of insights. These insights help you identify areas for enhancement and offer valuable coaching for drivers, fostering a culture of safety within your facility.
Integration with Powerfleet Products
The solution can also work hand in hand with our Forklift Gateway (VAC4) product to not only identify near misses, but capture event details like breach location, time, and driver identification.
Shining Light on Blind Spots
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.
Alert Zones
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.
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.
Camera Options
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 Lighting 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.
