Enhancing Forklift and Pedestrian Safety with WTSAFE’s Intelligent Collision Avoidance Systems

Source-唯创安全 2025-11-14

In modern warehouses and manufacturing facilities, forklift and pedestrian safety has become a critical priority. With constant cross-traffic and limited visibility, forklifts and workers often operate in close proximity—creating a high risk of collisions. 

Industry statistics show that nearly 70% of forklift-related accidents involve pedestrians, typically caused by blind spots, operator distraction, and insufficient alerts. To effectively reduce these risks, companies need more than training—they need proactive protection powered by intelligent technology.

Forklift Safety Hazards

WTSAFE addresses these challenges with its advanced Forklift AI Collision Avoidance System, designed specifically to enhance forklift and pedestrian safety in busy industrial environments. 

AI-Based Collision Avoidance Systems Using a combination of HD cameras, AI recognition, and multi-sensor fusion, the system continuously monitors the forklift’s surroundings with a 360° detection range. It accurately identifies pedestrians, analyzes movement trajectories, and provides real-time tiered alerts.

When a person approaches the warning zone, the system issues audible and visual reminders; if they enter a hazardous proximity, automatic deceleration or braking is triggered to prevent collisions.

On-Site Applications of the Forklift Collision Avoidance System

Blind spots at warehouse intersections are another major contributor to accidents. WTSAFE’s UWB-based corner-blind-spot solution places positioning tags on forklifts and wearable tags on workers, enabling precise distance measurement even when vision is obstructed by shelves, walls, or goods. The system alerts both pedestrians and operators when they are on a collision path, significantly improving safety in high-traffic warehouse aisles.

Warehouse UWB Indoor Positioning System

Beyond collision prevention, WTSAFE also supports safe-operation management. Features like seat-belt detection, overspeed control, and operator behavior monitoring help eliminate human-factor risks at the source and ensure consistent safety compliance.

Companies applying WTSAFE technologies have reported dramatic improvements—some achieving zero forklift-pedestrian incidents after deployment. The combination of AI perception, automatic intervention, and UWB positioning builds a reliable, always-active digital safety shield.

Improving forklift and pedestrian safety is not only crucial for protecting lives but also essential for achieving efficient, interruption-free operations. WTSAFE’s intelligent solutions empower enterprises to create safer workplaces and strengthen long-term safety performance.
