Pedestrian proximity detection - The new safety standard for industrial vehicles

Pedestrian accidents, a major issue in the industry

 

 

Thousands of worksite accidents are caused by a collision with a mobile machine. An estimation of 1 of 10 mobile equipment is involved in an accident each year .

 

In addition to being a real safety issue, accidents can involve direct costs of up to $ 3 million per death and indirect costs of up to 17 times more. 

 

Advanced « Pedestrian Proximity Detection »

 

Technology now make it possible to differentiate a pedestrian from another object. We are talking about active safety; prevention of pedestrian / machinery collisions . In fact, the Blaxtair systemis a collision avoidance system for site equipment. With its intelligent 3D vision for the industry, it is a benchmark solution in security.

 

 

 

1 - Blaxtair SEES

Morphological recognition of pedestrians, no need for them to wear a badge.

 

2 - Blaxtair DETECTS 

Reliable real time and continuous detection of pedestrians to protect workers on your site. 

 

3 - Blaxtair ALERTS 

Alerts the driver only in case of real danger, a valuable driving assistance to drivers.

 

 

The Blaxtair system emits an audible and visual alarm only in the event of danger

 

No pedestrian (no alarm)

The driver remains vigilant  

 

Pedestrian alert (or all obstacles alert) 

The driver stops immediately his vehicle

 

Increased productivity on your site

  • Generates only relevant alarms: less stress and irritation to the driver and surrounding workers, as Blaxtair focuses primarily on pedestrian dectection.
  • Avoids irrelevant alarms due to cluttered environment: Blaxtair can isolate pedestrians from other types of obstacles (objects) with the standard of accuracy required by critical security systems.

 

 

 

A BLAXTAIR for each machine

 

  • Detects pedestrians in case of immediate danger and warns the driver
  • Area of detection is configurable, according to the machine environment 
  • Offers visibility on blind spots and helps vechicle maneuvers
  • Contributes to the reduction of accident risks in the workplace
  • Reduces stress for pedestrians and machine drivers 

 

 

Blaxtair enhanced pedestrian safety

 

 

Differentiates pedestrians from inanimate obstacles.  

Blaxtair constantly scans the potentially dangerous areas, and thus protecting people when entering those areas.

 

Prevents accidents by identifying obstacles in real time, within a timeframe of less than 0.3 seconds from dangerous event occurrence to detection and alarm.

 

Mitigates the risk of direct & indirect cost of accidents:

Collision with pedestrian = compensation, loss of working days, unplanned site downtime …

Collision with object = capital goods loss of value, repair costs …

 

 

Modularity to match your work environment

  • Easy to set 2 detection zones: one dedicated to pedestrian detection, one for all obstacles detection. The size of both zones can be adjusted.
  • Multiple hardware configurations: to cover blind spots as needed (vehicle rear, opposite side of the cab…). Equips all vehicle types and sizes.
