IPAS (Intelligent Proximity Alert System)
IPAS is a safety-assisting device which prevents collisions between pedestrians and vehicles by signaling dangers in 2-way communication to both driver and pedestrian in industrial site.
Each device determines the distance from the vehicle tag based on the time delay of the return signal. With Ultrawideband technology, IPAS measures the distance precisely and provides highly reliable collision warnings. This system is designed not only for anti-collision between vehicle and people, but also for vulnerable areas (e.g. intersections, corners).
Key Features
High Precision UWB
IPAS employs Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology to provide precise, real-time monitoring of distances between personnel and moving equipment. UWB can provide centimeter-level accuracy in distance measurements, even in multipath or non-line-of-sight environments. IPAS is ideal for environments where precise location tracking and immediate response capabilities are crucial for safety.
Bidirectional Multi-factor Alert
To prevent collisions between workers and vehicles on industrial sites, IPAS provides bidirectional audiovisual alerts to both workers and vehicle drivers. It allows for the setting of various caution and danger zones according to the site environment and provides alerts accordingly.
Easy Installation & Operation
KIGIS® Safety Solutions are designed to meet industrial standards, ensuring high reliability, and are compatible with all construction machinery and industrial vehicles, including forklifts, excavators, loaders, tractors, and dump trucks. Thanks to the out-of-the-box no-registration and no-calibration installation procedure, you can easily install our devices without damaging the vehicles due to the no-drilling-required and user-friendly design.
PC Toolkit Support
IPAS provides a Toolkit that enables easy environmental settings through the PC. Device settings, danger and caution zone settings, firmware updates, and more can be conveniently configured via the PC.
Scalability
KIGIS® products can be integrated with external devices such as access gates, lamps, and control devices to implement various industrial safety scenarios. You can create various safety scenarios tailored to your workplace.
Platform Integrability
IPAS can provide event data like proximity alerts to the platforms for safety management.
IPAS: Collision Avoidance System
Vehicle to Pedestrian Collision Avoidance
Vehicle Tags detect Pedestrian Tags within a range of 30 to 100 feet. INDICATOR presents tag directions and sounds “watch out” or “danger.” Simultaneously, the Pedestrian Tag vibrates and beeps an alarm.
Vehicle to Vehicle Collision Avoidance
Vehicle Tags detect other Vehicle Tags within a range of 30 - 100 feet. INDICATOR indicates tag directions and issues audible alerts like “watch out” or “danger.”
Dangerous Zone
FLASHLIGHT ZONE TAG detects Vehicle Tags within a range of 30 - 100 feet, triggering visual and beep alarms when a vehicle is detected.
Intersection
CROSSWAY ZONE TAG detects Vehicle Tags within a range of 30 - 100 feet. Upon detection, it activates LED traffic lights, spotlights on the floor, and audible alerts. Simultaneously, INDICATOR on the vehicle provides audible alerts to the driver.
Idle Time
Beneficial for close-working drivers and pedestrians, the alarm automatically silences after a preconfigured idle period. It will not reactivate until either party moves out of range.
Driver Mode
Provides a quiet driving environment for drivers. By connecting a magnetic key inside the vehicle to an armband, the driver can mute the pedestrian tag. Exiting driver mode is as simple as removing the magnetic key from the armband.
Safety Zone
Creates a silent zone within a defined area. When the silent tag detects a pedestrian tag within the configured range, other pedestrian tags remain unaffected by nearby devices. They re-alert once outside the zone, making this feature ideal for small office spaces within warehouses and employee lounges.
