Lopos Forklift Proximity Warning System

By installing a beacon on the forklift and providing the pedestrian with a wearable, the Lopos Proximity Warning System will measure the distance between the pedestrian and the forklift 10 times per second using ultra‑wideband technology. It will use its internal algorithm to alert the driver and pedestrian to a potential incident, reducing near misses and accidents.

By constantly monitoring the position of the forklift and pedestrian, the Lopos Proximity Warning System can alert drivers and pedestrians of their presence. This enables the driver and pedestrian to stop and look for each other and ensure they are clear before proceeding, reducing or eliminating potential incidents.

The Forklift & Pedestrian Safety Systems are designed to increase operator and pedestrian awareness and should not be considered in any way a substitute for safe operating practices and for avoidance of doubt is not a collision avoidance system. The Forklift & Pedestrian Safety Systems features and functionality may vary depending on operating conditions. It is the sole responsibility of customer to ensure it’s employees, operators and visitors to monitor the equipment and surrounding conditions and to comply with all laws and safety policies.

Forklift Proximity Warning System FAQs

What is the Lopos Proximity Warning System?

The Lopos system is a forklift proximity warning system that uses ultra‑wideband beacons and wearables to continuously monitor the space between forklifts and pedestrians. It provides audible and visual alerts when people get too close, improving workplace safety and reducing potential collisions.

How does the forklift proximity sensor work?

The forklift proximity sensor is fitted to each forklift and works alongside a wearable device for pedestrians. The system measures the separation between the two at least 10 times a second. If the sensor detects a person within a set threshold, alerts are triggered to both the operator and the pedestrian. This real‑time detection is central to any effective forklift pedestrian warning system.

Who should use a forklift proximity warning system?

Any facility where forklifts operate near people should consider a forklift pedestrian collision avoidance system. Typical users include warehouses, manufacturing plants, logistics hubs and retail distribution centres. It supports existing safety protocols and boosts awareness without replacing them.

What is the detection range of the forklift proximity sensor?

The Lopos proximity sensor has a configurable detection range, typically from 1.5 metres up to 5 metres. This flexibility allows you to set safety zones that suit your environment, whether tight aisles or open loading yards.

Does it require infrastructure like base stations?

No. The Lopos system is entirely self‑contained, using direct interaction between the forklift beacon and the wearable. You don’t need to install fixed base stations or rely on external infrastructure.

Can a forklift proximity warning system reduce incident downtime?

Yes. By preventing collisions and near misses, a forklift proximity warning system helps reduce costly downtime associated with investigations, equipment repair or injury-related absences. It’s a proactive safety tool that supports continuous operations while protecting people on the floor.
