Safeguarding Construction Equipment with VIA Safety Solutions

Machinery on construction sites, such as telehandlers, skid-steers, and forklifts, often carries heavy materials from one location to another. Blind spots around these vehicles increase the risk of collisions, potentially causing injuries or fatalities. VIA Safety Solutions addresses these challenges with a smart multi-camera safety system for both heavy and compact equipment.

VIA Safety Solution for Heavy Equipment

This solution eliminates blind spots around equipment by providing full visibility around the vehicle. The 3D Image Stitching feature merges multiple camera feeds into a unified 360° Surround View, while Blue Box highlights the location of the most imminent threat. This reduces the mental load on operators by removing the need to monitor multiple camera feeds separately.

Smart cameras and sensors detect potential hazards before they lead to accidents. Sensor Fusion Technology integrates data from multiple cameras and radars, ensuring precise detection of people, vehicles, and objects, even in harsh working environments.

The system minimizes unnecessary alerts by issuing warnings only for genuine threats, using real-time Time-To-Collision (TTC) calculations. It intelligently adjusts alerts based on the vehicle’s speed and gear, providing operators with focused, actionable warnings.

VIA Safety Solution for Compact Equipment

This solution safeguards both operators and pedestrians with advanced AI Pedestrian Detection, identifying people who approach too closely and issuing visual and audio alerts. This helps minimize accidents, protecting both the workforce and valuable equipment.

The Safe Stopping Distance (SSD) feature ensures that all alerts are accurate by calculating the reaction and braking distance, providing sufficient time for operators to react.

Both systems can be paired with vCare Platform Cloud-Based Service, which deliver real-time visibility into operations and retain video recordings of incidents. This enables data-driven decisions to optimize safety protocols, resource allocation, and operational efficiency, ultimately reducing accidents and lowering costs.

Beyond the Tech:

VIA’s commitment goes beyond cutting-edge technology. Continuous AI improvements ensure that the system remains up-to-date and versatile, eliminating the need for frequent replacements. Over-The-Air (OTA) updates allow for seamless upgrades and precise adjustments by vehicle, site, or fleet.

By investing in VIA Safety Solutions, mining and aggregates businesses can confidently navigate industry challenges with a trusted partner committed to safety, efficiency, and sustainability.
