Importance of Forklift Collision Detection Systems in Warehouse Logistics

Nowadays more and more forklift drivers rely on cutting-edge technology for safe and efficient cargo transportation. At present, due to the wave of AI technology, more and more companies and more and more products are gradually applying AI technology. The forklift collision detection system uses AI recognition to prevent forklift safety accidents. This is a new breakthrough innovation for forklift safety.

Forklift collision detection system principle

The system uses AI pedestrian detection technology and installs a host and AI pedestrian camera on the forklift. When the forklift is working or driving, the AI camera will detect pedestrians and objects around the forklift. When a pedestrian or object is detected, the signal will be transmitted to the sound and light warning light and the host. The display screen in the cab will show the location and distance of the pedestrian. The driver can understand the status of pedestrians around the forklift in real time, and the sound and light warning light will send out sound and light alarms to remind pedestrians to pay attention to safety. If the distance between the pedestrian and the forklift is less than the safe distance set by the system, the system will actively control the vehicle to limit speed or stop to avoid safety accidents.

Features of forklift collision detection system

Real-time monitoring: The forklift collision detection system takes sensors and AI cameras to monitor pedestrians and objects near the forklift in real-time, and the system will intervene immediately if a potential collision risk occurs.

Audible and visual alarms: When the AI camera detects pedestrians or objects around the forklift, the sound and light alarm will issue sound and light reminders as well as visual warnings to remind the driver and pedestrians to pay attention to safety.

Real-time large-screen display: A display screen will be installed in the cab to display the situation around the forklift in real time.

360-degree collision prevention: the forklift collision detection system can detect the safety risks around the forklift in an all-round way, and through the addition of cameras it can realize the coverage of forklift without dead angle, 360-degree real-time prevention of forklift collision, and safeguard the safety of forklift and pedestrians.

Data collection and analysis: The forklift collision detection system relies on a powerful host, supports networking, and has a cloud platform. It can collect real-time information about forklift movement, collision, operator behavior, and vehicles, and supports API docking and localized deployment, which greatly improves the operational efficiency of warehouse management and vehicle management. 

Driver monitoring system: The system is equipped with DMS camera, which can monitor driver behavior in real time to prevent unsafe driving behavior and support the uploading of violation events to the cloud, the cloud platform to view the violation events in real time, effectively reducing the risk of forklift collision.
