Safety in Material Handling is Always a Top Priority
Toyota's SEnS+ (Smart Environment Sensor Plus) is raising the bar for workplace operation. Designed exclusively for forklifts, SEnS+ provides pedestrian and object detection, helping operators stay aware of their surroundings and reducing the risk of accidents.
How SEnS+ Works
SEnS+ uses an advanced camera system to detect obstacles and pedestrians in real time. When a potential hazard is identified, the system provides visual and audible alerts to notify the operator. Depending on the situation, SEnS+ can also automatically slow down the forklift using regenerative braking, helping to prevent collisions.
Key Features of SEnS+
- Pedestrian Recognition – Distinguishes people from objects to provide the most relevant alerts.
- Three Levels of Notifications – Different warning intensities based on proximity and speed.
- Automatic Speed Control – Adjusts travel speed based on detected obstacles.
- Wide Detection Range – A 130-degree field of view with a detection distance of up to 10 meters (32 feet).
- No Tags Required – Unlike some systems, SEnS+ doesn’t need RFID or sensor tags, making it effective in dynamic work environments.
Optimizing Operations with Smart Adjustments
One of the standout features of SEnS+ is its adaptive detection system, which automatically adjusts its range based on the forklift’s speed, steering direction, and obstacle position. This helps minimize unnecessary alerts while ensuring that operators receive critical warnings when it matters most.
Why SEnS+ Matters for Your Business
Forklift accidents can lead to costly downtime, equipment damage, and most importantly, injuries. Investing in safety technology like SEnS+ not only alerts your workforce but also enhances operational efficiency by reducing the risk of collisions and unplanned maintenance.
With Toyota’s commitment to innovation, SEnS+ is a game-changer for businesses looking to create smarter warehouse environments.
