Data-Driven Breakthrough for Forklift, Pedestrian Safety



MakuSafe has launched MakuSafe Scout, a solution that uses real-time data to identify high-risk pedestrian interactions and improve forklift safety.

Scout enables forklifts to detect workers wearing the MakuSafe Ally armband, providing operators with real-time risk indicators based on pedestrian density nearby.

"Unlike traditional collision-avoidance systems that rely on sudden stops or alarms, Scout's data-driven approach enhances operator awareness without disrupting operations," said a company spokesperson. "The system also provides comprehensive analytics, helping safety leaders understand where and when the highest risk interactions occur-allowing for smarter decision making and proactive safety interventions."

Gabriel Glynn, CEO, said: "MakuSafe Scout does not just warn operators-it gathers and analyzes safety data, helping companies identify risks, refine workflows and make real, measurable improvements in workplace safety."

Scout's insights help organizations answer critical safety questions, including:

  • Where do most pedestrian-forklift interactions occur?
  • What time of day sees the highest risk?
  • How can facility layout changes reduce high-risk interactions?

"With MakuSafe Scout, organizations can move from reactive to proactive safety management-reducing risk, improving efficiency and protecting workers like never before," said the spokesperson.
