On the road or off the road: Pedestrian detection is essential!

The latest must have in automotive safety, pedestrian detection is progressively becoming an indispensable technology as a security for equipment on the work site.

As a matter of fact, most major auto makers already propose this option on their high end models.… Soon all cars will be equipped with a detection system for pedestrians, cyclists or animals.

 

 

In the industry also…

 

In the industrial sector, technology is also gaining ground. Specifically in an environment where pedestrians and heavy equipment have to work side by side: Public works, recycling, mines, steel mills…

Instead of simple cameras, more and more companies are equipping there fleet of heavy machinery with back up radars, a badge detection system or intelligent cameras that recognize pedestrians.

 

Risks and higher stakes

 

It is a known fact that in such an environment the risks of collisions are higher. Blind spots is one of the major safety issues on heavy equipment. In addition, the operator is never exclusively focused on driving. Unlike the motorist, the operator has a more productive task that are often repetitive: transport materials, load or unload the bucket…

It is therefore necessary to have piloting assistance, cause the stakes of having accidents are quite high and accidents could lead to a delay in production or even a full halt in production!

 

 

Operating in severe environments

 

Fortunately, there exists a solution for these uses. Although this is not always acknowledged, they benefit a more advanced technology compared to the automobile industry. This is notably due to the fact that in the industrial sector, the system must be more robust in order to function in severe environments: On rugged terrain, night and day, in dust, extreme temperatures and significant electromagnetic fields.
