The Safety Shield Thumbs Up Software offers additional support when managing this by alerting the operator to the danger if anyone were to enter the amber or red detection zone, helping to prevent accidents. Safety Shield, a camera-based collision avoidance system, uses AI to identify people who are in the danger zone of moving plant and machinery. The system is trained to filter out all other objects and only detects the human form, acting as a third eye for the operator and sounding an alert if a collision is imminent. 

Cognition has chosen to install this software on our own excavator at Meridian Water SIW, not only to make sure our plant is up to date with the most effective technologies on the market, but to further protect our workforce onsite.
