Close Interaction Reporting/Notifications: Every close interaction alarm will generate an alarm 
that  is  transmitted to  the  monitoring/reporting  server  for  immediate notifications  or  historical 
reporting for trend analysis. 
 

 

Personnel Tracking: All data is wireless transmitted to the server, which allows the personnel 
within range distance to a vehicle with CAS to be tracked on the Live monitoring web services. 
 

 

Incident Analysis: Pedestrian close interactions are logged in the on-board hardware, which 
can be recreated for incident analysis. 
 

FEATURES AND BENEFITS: 
 

 

Alert - Uses high-performance algorithms within the same proven approach  of safety  zones 
from CAS, employing highly  intuitive ascending  visual, audible, and vibration alarms to help 
drivers and pedestrians avert imminent accidents 

 

Minimize accidents - Reduce the risk of accidents involving personnel and vehicles in all areas  

 

Reduce  Blind  Spots  -  Time  of  Flight  technology  tracks  all  personnel  around  vehicles  at  all 
times, and alerts operators and pedestrians with 360 degrees of protection at any speed 

 

Adaptable  to  site  specific  requirements:  Tremendously  configurable  detection  and  alarming 
zones,  based  on  vehicle  location  and  situation  reduces  many  nuisance  alarms  in  un-risk 
situations 

 

In-Cabin Driver Detection - Strategically mounted anchor devices identify pedestrian entering 
the cabin, reducing nuisance alarms 

 

Integration and scalability - Fully integrated with CAS and able to upgrade with FatigueMonitor, 
and HxGN Mine VIS 

 

Using web-based reporting and analytics, supervisors can detect and correct unsafe operator 
practices by analyzing information wireless transmitted (WiFi/GSM/LTE) 

 

Improve  safety  culture  -  With  the  enhanced  reporting  capabilities,  unsafe  behaviors  can  be 
identified and strategically reduced by knowing the root cause 

 

Investigate – Black box recording and data transfer records, specifically detailed data such as 
location, tag ID and traffic for incident investigation 

 

Increase usability and learnability - Fully integrated with CAS, operators interact with a single 
user interface for all safety purposes, reducing training time 

 

Monitor remotely - WiFi or GSM connectivity allows wireless data transfer, status monitoring, 
and remote support functions 

 

Reliable and precise technology - Time of Flight technology increases the detection reliability 
under  poor  GNSS  conditions  or  under  roof  scenarios  with  a  50  meters  range  and  a  5cm 
precision not degraded by the distance.
