3 Levels of Awareness

In order for the system to work, vehicles, operators, and pedestrians need to be equipped with specific iW.FieldSense components:

HOW IT WORKS

NOTE: This example shown is truck to pedestrian awareness. Truck to truck and truck to facility awareness follow a similar process with the MFG communicating to another MFG device (truck to truck) or the Structure Monitor option (truck to facility).

iW.FieldSense creates three adjustable Magnetic Field Generator (MFG) zones around your lift trucks and other vehicles:

CREATE SILENT ZONES

PROVIDE ADDITIONAL ALERTS, Help Support Vehicle Access And Adjust Zone Sizes

Help Limit Pedestrian Access to Designated Areas

Alert Operators to Properly Equipped Stationary Structures:

ZONE

Configurable fields and ranges allow you to customize the system to your operators, applications, and facility layout.

Provides a solution for free and dynamic environments that follows trucks and personnel around for greater security and flexibility.

Allows the system to see through and around most objects—including racking and corners—for exceptional performance in virtually any environment, including cold storage.

Allows the system to be added to virtually any make and model of forklift—or other vehicle —for use across your entire fleet.

Requires little or no major infrastructure changes or hardware and software.

SILENT

Emits low frequency pulses that create an adjustable field around each piece of mobile equipment. If the system detects another properly equipped vehicle or person within its range, it alerts both parties with an audible and visual notification.

iW.FieldSense is a robust proximity notification system designed to alert pedestrians and lift truck operators when they come within a predefined distance of properly equipped trucks and pedestrians. The system can also alert vehicle operators to the proximity of structural elements in a facility.

INCREASE EMPLOYEE AWARENESS IN DYNAMIC OPERATING ENVIRONMENTS.

BUILDING INSTALLED OPTIONS

Area Access Control Zone Can help control certain gates/doors, allowing only PND-equipped personnel to enter. • Use in break room/floor entry areas, ensuring all employees are covered by the system in designated areas.

Silent Zone Can silence alerts in zones up to 160’ long and 30’ wide. • Use in larger, high visibility spaces or protected work areas.

Structure Awareness Can alert operator when truck nears a protected structure. • Use in warehouse environments with features such as steel beams, racks, or low doorways.

Silent Zone Creates an elliptically shaped silent zone up to 22’ long by 18’ wide. • Use in office spaces or smaller, protected work areas.

Alert Zone Can help activate alarms, lights and/or control access to doors/gates when trucks or pedestrians enter a controlled area. • Use in alerting pedestrians that a properly equipped truck is in its proximity.

Alert Zone Can shrink a truck's zone size upon entry to avoid constant alerts. • Use in high visibility areas where trucks are in close proximity.

SILENT ZONE

STRUCTURAL AWARENESS

ACCESS CONTROL

Pedestrian Notification Device (PND) lights and sounds when a pedestrian enters a truck’s Notification Zone.

Notification Module (NM) lights and sounds when a Pedestrian Notification Device (PND), another vehicle, or a protected structure enters the truck’s Notification Zone. Light and sound intensify when the Alert Zone is breached.

Facility-mounted magnets allow the system to alert truck operators to the proximity of structural elements.

Cab Silencer creates a silent zone in and around the vehicle cabin.

NOTIFICATION

SILENT

CREATE SILENT ZONES

Alerts can be silenced to minimize distractions and enhance productivity in certain locations and applications.

ALERT OPERATORS TO STATIONARY STRUCTURES

Certain structures can be tagged to alert operators when their truck nears a protected structure.

Help Limit Pedestrian Access to Designated Areas

Certain gates and doors can be controlled, allowing only PND-equipped personnel to enter.

PROVIDE ADDITIONAL ALERTS, HELP SUPPORT VEHICLE ACCESS AND ADJUST ZONE SIZES

Lights and alarms can be activated when when equipped vehicles are in near proximity. Door locks and gates can be activated and/or deactivated when PNDs are in close proximity, to allow access to high traffic areas. Zone sizes can also be shrunk in areas of high visibility to avoid constant alerts.
