Case study: gypsum mine
Many vehicles are used in this environment (excavators, loaders, dumpers etc.), there are few people circulating on foot, however sometimes pedestrians work alongside the vehicles. Also, light-duty vehicles are regularly used in the gallery. Every vehicle in operation is fitted with Blaxtair VCAS; pedestrians and light-duty vehicles are systematically provided with a badge. This way, under all circumstances, the machine operator is warned of any other approaching machinery, LV or pedestrian, within a configurable distance.

safetyBlaxtair VCaS is easy to install onto mobile machinery. With its time of Flight technology, Blaxtair VCaS accurately locates pedestrians through their badges and other vehicles as soon as they enter a precisely defined area around the machine. In the event of a person or another vehicle entering the danger zone, a visual and sound signal will alert the driver (and possibly the endangered pedestrian). The Blaxtair VCaS control screen provides a clear view of the position of other vehicles or pedestrians allowing the driver to react.
