How do forklift-to-forklift collision avoidance systems work?

Forklift-to-forklift collision avoidance systems use vehicle-mounted safety units and Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology to continuously measure the distance between nearby forklifts. When vehicles approach unsafe distances, the system provides real-time audible and visual alerts to both operators and can automatically reduce speed on compatible forklifts. Trio Mobil's TRIO SAFE provides 360-degree proximity detection to help reduce collision risks at blind spots, intersections, and narrow aisles. Its UWB-based detection operates locally without requiring Wi-Fi, internet, or cellular connectivity.
