Project Overview
In a dynamic warehouse environment, forklifts are essential for efficient operations, yet they also pose significant safety risks. Frequent forklift movements can lead to accidental collisions with merchandise or other materials, resulting in damage and potential safety hazards. Our client, a leading logistics company, sought a solution to enhance safety and accountability by tracking forklift operations and associating incidents with specific operators. The goal was to develop a comprehensive system that not only detected and recorded impacts but also provided actionable insights to prevent future incidents. By leveraging advanced IoT technology, iotasol aimed to create a robust system that ensured real-time monitoring, incident detection, and detailed reporting to improve overall warehouse safety and efficiency
