Summary of Innovation
Raymond’s iW.FieldSense is a robust proximity notification system designed to alert pedestrians and lift truck operators when they come within a predefined distance of properly equipped trucks and pedestrians. The system also can alert vehicle operators to the proximity of properly equipped structural elements in a facility. Using audible and visual alerts, iW.FieldSense helps increase a user’s environmental awareness for other properly equipped users, helping to reinforce training and best practices in today’s congested warehouses.
Innovation Statement
iW.FieldSense is a flexible solution that allows users to customize the product to meet their specific needs today and then expand the system in the future. It’s designed so warehouse managers can customize it to best fit their operations, applications and facility layouts without significant infrastructure changes.
Applicability
iW.FieldSense can be tailored to the operation and application, providing 360-degree detection and a solution for free and dynamic environments that follows trucks and personnel around for greater security and flexibility. Vehicle compatibility allows the system to be added to virtually any make and model of forklift — or other vehicle — for use across an entire fleet.
