PPE Compliance Monitoring
Computer vision automatically detects whether workers are wearing all required Personal Protective Equipment in designated zones — including face shields, safety goggles, hand gloves, safety masks, and safety shoes. Real-time alerts ensure immediate corrective action.
Forklift & Human Pathway Safety
Dual-purpose monitoring tracks dedicated pathways for both vehicles and personnel. The system identifies forklifts deviating into pedestrian aisles, materials blocking designated routes, and ensures safe separation between heavy equipment and workers.
Random Parking & BOPT Detection
AI identifies when forklifts, pallet jacks, or trucks are left parked in non-designated or unsafe areas. This includes monitoring for wrongly parked trucks at the dock, preventing bottlenecks and safety hazards.
Forklift Zone Compliance
Real-time monitoring ensures forklifts operate only within their designated zones. The system tracks forklift operators and human presence, providing precise location data for effective resource allocation and enhanced safety protocols.
Facility Opening & Closing Monitoring
Automated logging of precise timestamps for door activity and truck movements. Eliminates manual data entry, ensures accuracy of arrival and departure times, and optimizes supply chain efficiency with dock in/out time tracking.
Idle Time & Activity Detection
AI-powered alerts on machine and worker inactivity enable prompt intervention. The system detects no-activity zones, standing/sitting behaviors, and idle equipment — maximizing uptime and boosting overall production output.
