VIA Mobile360 AI Forklift Safety Kit Prevents Accidents in Busy Warehouse Environments with Smart Visual Intelligence and Object Detection Capabilities
VIA Technologies, Inc. today announced the launch of the VIA Mobile360 AI Forklift Safety Kit to prevent accidents and avoid losses from damage to goods in busy warehouses and supply chain hubs.
- Real-time 360° SVS (Surround View System) video makes it easier for forklift operator to identify potential hazards around their vehicle and take corrective action
- Front and rear DMOD (Dynamic Moving Object Detection) automatically alerts forklift operator of safety threats
- Sophisticated DMS (Driver Monitoring System) supports Driver ID and detects signs of operator fatigue, distraction, and dangerous behavior
With it real-time 360° SVS (Surround View System) video and DMOD (Dynamic Moving Object Detection) capabilities, the kit enables forklift operators to identify potential safety hazard such as the unexpected arrival of another vehicle or person within a close range in time to take appropriate action to avert a collision.
The kit’s highly-sophisticated DMS (Driver Monitoring System) further enhances worksite safety by issuing alerts whenever it detects signs of operator fatigue, distraction, and dangerous behavior such as using a smart phone. To prevent unauthorized staff from operating the vehicle, the DMS also supports Driver ID using facial recognition technology.
“As warehouses and supply chain hubs continue to ramp up the speed, scale, and scope of their operations to meet the exploding demand for last-mile deliveries, it is vital that they take pro-active steps to ensure the safety of their staff in their busy, high-pressure working environments,” said Richard Brown, Vice President of Marketing, VIA Technologies, Inc. “The VIA Mobile360 AI Forklift Safety Kit enables them to meet this need by adding an extra set of smart eyes that improves operator awareness of potential threats around their vehicle.”
