Forklift–Pedestrian Detection

The highest-severity risk in most warehouses and plants, watched continuously by the cameras already on the ceiling.

The problem

Why this keeps happening

Forklift strikes are among the most severe and most litigated industrial accidents, and near-misses happen daily without ever being recorded. Spotters, mirrors, and floor markings depend on humans being alert every minute of every shift — and safety teams only learn about close calls when someone reports one.

Most facilities already have camera coverage of exactly the intersections and aisles where conflicts happen. What is missing is something watching those feeds continuously and consistently.

How it works

On the cameras you already own

01

Connect the cameras you have

CamEdge connects to existing fixed cameras over ONVIF/RTSP — the aisle, dock, and intersection views you already own. No new cameras, no rewiring.

02

Define zones and the rule

Mark travel lanes, pedestrian walkways, and mixed zones on each camera view, then write the policy in plain English — distance thresholds, zones, and shift windows included.

03

Detect and alert in milliseconds

On-site GPU inference tracks people and vehicles simultaneously and fires the moment the rule is breached — to floor displays, radios, or the supervisor on shift.

04

Seal the evidence, trend the risk

Every event lands in CamCore as a sealed, timestamped clip with an explanation. Near-miss trends by aisle, shift, and driver feed your safety reviews.

The rule, in plain English

Alert when a person comes within three meters of a moving vehicle in an active zone.

The return

What drives the ROI

Fewer struck-by incidents and the injuries, downtime, and claims that follow

Near-miss data you have never had — intervene before the incident, not after

Sealed evidence for insurance claims and disputes

Traffic-flow insight that often pays for the deployment on its own

Common questions

Does this work with cameras mounted high on the ceiling?

Yes — detection works from the overhead and oblique angles typical of warehouse CCTV. During pilot setup each camera view is validated against your real footage before the rule goes live.

Can alerts reach the forklift driver in the moment?

Alerts route wherever they act fastest: floor-level displays and sirens, supervisor radios or phones, or the control room — with escalation tiers if the first alert is not acknowledged.
