Infrastructure Protection

APPLICATIONS

Construction, Scrap Metal, Mining:

To protect workers in high-risk zones with large machinery.

Warehouse and Industrial Settings:

Where forklifts and other vehicles operate in close proximity to people.

Infrastructure Detection

The SEEN Safety System is an advanced proximity detection technology designed to enhance operator awareness by identifying potential collision risks, including infrastructure elements such as walls, columns, storage racks, and other fixed structures. By alerting operators to their surroundings in real time, SEEN Safety significantly reduces the risk of accidents in dynamic industrial environments like warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities where heavy machinery operates in confined spaces.

Key Features and Functionality

Detection Technology

Utilizes infrared (IR) sensors that detect reflective surfaces, including high-visibility safety gear and strategically marked infrastructure elements (such as reflective strips on storage racks and structural supports).
Unlike radar or LiDAR, SEEN’s IR-based system minimizes false alarms by differentiating workers and infrastructure from generic objects or materials.
Compact and easy-to-install sensors integrate seamlessly with forklifts, loaders, and other industrial vehicles, providing coverage for both personnel and facility structures.

Alert Mechanisms

Real-time visual warnings through indicator lights mounted in the operator’s cab.
Audible alarms notify operators when they are approaching walls, racks, or other structural elements, reducing the likelihood of impact.
Unlike traditional systems that detect all objects indiscriminately, SEEN focuses on high-risk proximity hazards, ensuring that alerts remain relevant and actionable.

Proactive Infrastructure Collision Prevention

While SEEN Safety does not automatically stop equipment (though integration with third-party control systems is possible), it provides a highly reliable early warning system, giving operators critical time to react and prevent collisions.
Can be customized for infrastructure-specific detection, allowing organizations to implement targeted collision-prevention strategies based on data-driven insights.

Integration with High-Visibility Markers

Unlike systems requiring electronic beacons or RFID tags, SEEN Safety detects retroreflective materials on both workers’ safety gear and marked infrastructure elements.
Effective in various lighting conditions, ensuring continuous hazard awareness in low-visibility environments, tight aisles, and enclosed spaces.

Key Benefits

Enhanced Safety for Operators and Infrastructure

Prevents costly collisions with fixed structures like racking systems, machinery stations, and facility walls, reducing damage to both equipment and infrastructure.
Protects personnel and workplace assets by ensuring that operators receive precise warnings only when real hazards are detected.
Reduces distractions from false alarms, allowing operators to focus on navigating safely through complex environments.

Minimized Workplace Injuries and Downtime

Fewer collisions mean lower maintenance costs for damaged storage racks, facility walls, and mobile equipment.
Reduces the risk of OSHA-recordable incidents linked to mobile equipment accidents, improving overall workplace safety compliance.
Less downtime from accident-related repairs, leading to higher operational efficiency and cost savings.

Optimized Equipment Navigation & Workflow Efficiency

Enables smoother, more predictable movement of equipment in high-density storage areas.
Reduces congestion risks in tight workspaces by helping operators maintain safe clearance from walls, columns, and other obstacles.
Enhances spatial awareness in blind spots, minimizing near-misses and improving overall workflow efficiency.

With infrared-based infrastructure and pedestrian detection, organizations can prioritize both worker and facility safety, making SEEN Safety an essential solution for industries where mobile equipment must operate in proximity to structural hazards.
