AI Safety Monitoring · Forklift & Pedestrian

Forklift-pedestrian safety monitoring using existing cameras.

Edgentik uses qualified existing camera views to run defined forklift safety policies, create reviewable alerts and reveal where reviewed conditions recur by place and time.

Configurable forklift safety policies

Start with the spatial and operating rules that matter at the site.

Begin with zone, dwell and restricted-area policies that map cleanly to the work area. Add selected interaction policies when Technical Fit confirms the camera geometry supports them. These examples are representative, not an exhaustive catalogue.

SPATIAL SEPARATION
  • Pedestrian in Forklift Zone A person enters or remains in the defined forklift operating zone.
  • Forklift in Pedestrian Zone A forklift enters or remains in the defined pedestrian-protected zone.
  • Forklift in Restricted Area A forklift enters or remains in a site-defined restricted area.
  • Scheduled / Restricted Area A forklift enters or remains in a site-defined area during a restricted operating window.
  • Forklift Dwell A forklift remains in a defined area longer than the site threshold.
SELECTED INTERACTION POLICIES
  • Forklift–Pedestrian Proximity Flag a forklift and pedestrian appearing close together in the same suitable camera view, under a site-configured policy.
  • Pedestrian Near Moving Forklift Flag a visible pedestrian near a moving forklift in a suitable shared camera view.
What the forklift view can answer

Separate the immediate event from the operating pattern behind it.

What condition occurred?

Apply the selected zone, interaction, motion or dwell rule to the qualified view. Both subjects must be visible for interaction review; camera-view closeness is not a certified distance in metres.

Where did it occur?

Preserve the relevant route, crossing, zone or shared-space location with the episode.

When did it concentrate?

Organize confirmed episodes by operating window and recurring time pattern.

What supports review?

Keep the supporting clip, snapshot, timestamp and review history with each distinct operating episode, then group reviewed episodes by place and time.

Existing-camera forklift safety

How can existing cameras support forklift-pedestrian safety monitoring?

Start with one visible operating condition and a camera view that supports credible review. Edgentik turns that observation into reviewed evidence and recurring patterns that the team can act on.

What is the difference between a safety alert and a recurring safety condition?

A safety alert identifies one configured condition at a point in time so a team can respond. A recurring safety condition asks whether the same reviewed condition keeps returning in the same area, operating window or context. The first supports immediate response; the second helps a site decide where to investigate and what to change.

Can the same camera keep following the condition after action?

Yes, when the view remains suitable. Later observations can stay connected to the site action so the team can review whether the same operating condition keeps returning.

Go deeper: review forklift-pedestrian interactions with existing cameras or compare safety alerts with recurring safety patterns.

Camera requirements

A strong result starts with a reviewable view.

Forklift and pedestrian travel paths are visible
Required zone boundaries or shared-space geometry are understandable
Occlusion, distance and lighting support reliable detection
The customer defines the zone, distance, motion or dwell rule
Operating schedule and notification recipients are named

Deployment path

Start with the highest-priority forklift policy, then expand across cameras, areas and policies.

Production deployment connects qualified camera coverage to an Edgentik Edge AI appliance and runs the same alert, recurrence and follow-up workflow across supported cameras, areas and policies.
