Supported Safety Events

Visionify's Forklift Safety suite detects near-misses between forklifts & people, forklift-speed limit, and dedicated pathways for forklifts & people. This scenario is useful for areas where forklifts are operated.

Forklift Safety also implements other best practices like Wearning Seatbelts, Stop sign compliance etc.

Our forklift safety suite can be considered as a passive safety system. It does not actively prevent any accidents, but it does help you identify areas that need attention. The goal of the Forklift Safety Suite is to make your team aware of the risks, so you can data driven changes to make your workplace safer.
