Mobile plant blind spots cause struck-by incidents, one of the leading causes of fatality on construction sites and the main risk around moving plant.
Mobile plant has extensive rear and side blind spots. Operators cannot see workers who step into danger zones during slewing or reversing.
Spotter vigilance degrades across a shift. Distraction, fatigue and communication breakdowns mean human spotters are an unreliable safety barrier.
Radio alerts are slow, misheard and ignored on noisy sites. By the time a warning is relayed, an incident may already be in progress.
Basic proximity sensors trigger constantly on active sites, so operators learn to ignore them, defeating the purpose of the system entirely.
Camera systems on the machine give full 360-degree visual coverage across all blind spots, rear, sides and swing arc.
NXTGEN Inspect detects people entering configurable danger zones, distinguishing people from plant, vehicles and static objects to suppress false alarms. Swing zones and turning circles are configurable to each equipment type.
When a person enters a danger zone, both the operator and the worker are alerted, the operator through an audible and visual alarm in the cab, and nearby workers through optional wearables. Safety no longer depends on one person reacting in time.
The operator can momentarily silence the audible alarm with a button press while the visual alert stays on screen, preventing the alarm fatigue that makes operators ignore other systems.
Every event and worker movement is logged and analysed in NXTGEN Inspect to surface unsafe scenarios and trends, reported through the platform for safety review and compliance.
Surround cameras, AI detection and UWB worker tags combine for real-time detection, precise tracking and two-way alerts across every danger zone.
Full perimeter coverage around the machine, no gap in detection regardless of slew angle or operator line of sight.
Alerts reach the operator in the cab and nearby workers through optional wearables, so responsibility is shared and safety doesn't hinge on one person reacting in time.
Swing zones, turning circles and exclusion zones are configured per site and per equipment type, so alerts match the real danger zones.
Operators acknowledge and silence the audible alert with a button press while the visual stays on, so warnings get respected instead of ignored.
Every event and worker movement is logged and analysed in NXTGEN Inspect, turning raw alerts into reported unsafe-scenario insights and a compliance audit trail.
We assess your plant types, site layout and exclusion zone requirements, configuring camera placement and detection zone parameters to your specific operations.
Camera systems are installed on plant equipment. AI detection zones are calibrated, alert thresholds set and the event logging system integrated with your safety reporting workflows.
The system operates continuously across every shift. Operator alerts active from day one. Event logs available to your safety team in real time. AI detection is tuned continuously as more site data comes in, so accuracy keeps improving over time.
