VAID
Vehicle AI Detection
Our VAID system uses the latest CCTV vehicle detection to monitor, detect and then alarm. This helps reduce incidents and accidents within car park and busy yard environments.
VAID is designed to enhance safety by alerting everyone around the area that a vehicle is moving. VAID will recognise a stationary vehicle and ignore it, but once the vehicle starts to move, our alarms and strobe lights activate.
VAID sends wireless alarms to forklift drivers which then sound and light up LEDs on the forklift dashboard notifying the driver that someone has entered a restricted area (we can define multiple areas). This can drastically help reduce injury and potential death in warehouse environments at the fraction of the cost of 'armband' solutions.
Like all of our AI T3CH solutions, Data Insights are recorded and can be used for analysis in H&S meetings giving vital information on how many times vehicles have entered a restricted area.
