Heavy Vehicle Proximity Monitoring

Haul trucks, loaders, and dozers have blind zones measured in vehicle lengths. Cameras on site already see into them.

The problem

Why this keeps happening

Vehicle–person interactions are the dominant fatal-risk category on mine sites and heavy-industrial operations. Operator blind zones on haul-class equipment are enormous, and fatigue compounds the risk on long shifts.

Proximity technology mounted on vehicles helps but only covers equipped vehicles. Site cameras see the whole interaction zone — including contractors and visitors no tag system knows about.

How it works

On the cameras you already own

01

Cover interaction zones from fixed cameras

Active faces, crusher aprons, fueling bays, and workshop approaches — the fixed cameras watching them become continuous proximity monitors.

02

Enforce the danger envelope

Distance thresholds around moving heavy vehicles are enforced deterministically, with different envelopes per equipment class and area.

03

Alert the dispatcher and the ground

Breaches alert dispatch and site radios in the moment, with escalation on repeat or unacknowledged events.

04

Trend the near-misses

Every breach is sealed with context in CamCore — the near-miss dataset that safety reviews and regulator conversations are built on.

The rule, in plain English

Alert when a person comes within the danger envelope of a moving haul truck — escalate to dispatch immediately.

Common questions

How does this interact with vehicle-mounted proximity systems?

They complement each other. Vehicle-mounted systems protect around equipped vehicles; camera-based monitoring covers fixed interaction zones and everyone in them, including unequipped contractors and light vehicles.

Do dusty or harsh conditions break detection?

Detection runs on the same views your operators already rely on. Camera-by-camera performance is validated against your real site footage during the pilot, and thresholds tuned accordingly.
