The system can log any intervention on a mapping system so the location of activation can be mapped and analysed for risk hot spots, as well as automatically reporting the high-consequence harm near misses to the business.

The system’s innovation lies in its ability to differentiate between people and objects without the people needing to be equipped with sensors, leading to earlier warnings, a reduction in false alarms, and safer working practices. The active personnel detection system is linked to the vehicle’s braking system and monitors the rear area of the wheel loader to automatically apply the vehicle’s brakes and warn the operator of dangers via both a visual symbol on the display and an audible alarm. The safety features include, but not limited to, active personnel detection at the rear, adaptive working lighting, a roof camera system for 360° monitoring, and an integral tyre pressure monitoring system. Each wheel loader features several intelligent safety solutions that move away from object detection and instead focus on human-recognition systems that can operate even in tight city worksites.
