Enhancing Forklift Safety in Logistics Operations

A leading logistics company in Dubai has recently deployed hundreds of YUWEI’s BSD (Blind Spot Detection) systems to improve forklift safety during cargo handling. These advanced systems from China-based YUWEI integrate AI algorithmsand machine vision technology, combined with audio-visual alerts, to proactively warn forklift operators and nearby pedestrians, effectively preventing accidents.

The Safety Challenge

Forklifts are widely used in logistics and warehousing to boost efficiency. However, they also pose serious safety risks due to:

Dubai Forklifts Blind Spot Detection

Operator focus on tasks, leading to reduced environmental awareness

Limited visibility, making it difficult to notice people in blind spots

These factors often result in accidents that could have been avoided with better detection and alert systems.

YUWEI’s Intelligent Solution

The YUWEI BSD Blind Spot Detection Systemis designed to address these issues. The system includes:

1 MDVR main unit

1 audio-visual alarm device

Multiple BSD cameras, available in two types:

Dubai Forklifts MDVR

Side-view BSD cameras

Top-view BSD cameras

(Both types have adjustable angles)

For this specific project, eight BSD cameraswere strategically installed around each forklift to monitor all directions. When a pedestrian enters the detection zone, the system automatically activates:

Voice warnings
Flashing red lights

This ensures both the operator and nearby pedestrians are alerted, creating a 360-degree safety perimeter.

Customized Innovation

Previously, YUWEI’s systems supported up to 4 BSD channels. To meet the unique demands of this project, YUWEI’s R&D team developed a custom 8-channel BSD solution, extending the system’s capability and ensuring full situational coverage.
