Yard & Site Logistics Control
Detect even invisible crane blind spots
to proactively manage collision risk at large worksites.
Target Customers
• Large shipyards and shipbuilding companies
• Port authorities and port terminal operators
• Crane and heavy equipment operators and logistics companies
• Shipyard and port safety management and equipment operations departments
Challenges
• Large cranes, transport equipment, and workers move simultaneously in the same space, creating constant collision risk
• Crane operators’ view is obstructed, making it difficult to confirm workers and obstacles in blind spots in time
• A single collision goes beyond personal injury to equipment damage and prolonged work stoppage, causing major losses
Existing Limitations
• Heavy reliance on drivers’ visual checks and signalmen
• CCTV makes accurate distance judgment difficult because of blind spots and occlusion between objects
• Simple proximity sensors cannot distinguish an object’s type, direction of movement, or actual collision likelihood
• Difficult to systematically accumulate and analyze data on hazardous situations and pre-accident events
Solution Approach
• Define crane travel paths and operating radii as 3D virtual hazard zones
• Detect and track the positions and movement directions of workers, vehicles, equipment, and obstacles in real time
• Provide staged warnings when an object enters a hazard zone or approaches a crane
• Integrate with warning lights, speakers, operator monitors, and existing control systems
• Record hazard zone entries and proximity events to analyze recurring risk factors
Expected Benefits
• Reduce collision accident risk among cranes, workers, and equipment
• Strengthen operators’ and safety managers’ awareness of blind spots
• Minimize work stoppages and equipment losses caused by accidents
• Improve work routes and safety zones by addressing hazardous conditions before accidents occur
• Advance serious accident prevention and safety management systems at shipyards and ports
