Collision Warning, Adaptive Proximity Detection and Beyond
Litum’s forklift safety solutions offer both tagged and tag-free options to enhance workplace safety. Using Ultra Wideband (UWB) technology, our tag-to-tag system enables real-time proximity detection between forklifts, people, and fixed infrastructure, providing immediate alerts to help prevent collisions. For even broader coverage, Litum’s adaptive proximity system detects entities without tags, adding an extra layer of protection in dynamic environments.
Litum offers scalable solutions, ranging from simple plug-and-play systems with audiovisual warnings to advanced mesh networks that provide full visibility of forklift movements. These intelligent systems go beyond real-time alerts by enabling data-driven insights into forklift utilization, congestion, and inefficiencies — helping businesses optimize safety and productivity.

Comprehensive Forklift Safety That Sees It All
Forklift to Forklift
Forklifts often work in tight spaces with limited visibility, increasing safety risks. Litum’s system detects when forklifts come into dangerous proximity, and alerts drivers with real-time sound and visual cues, enabling timely action to help prevent accidents. Pro and Advanced options include slowdown and geofencing capabilities.
Forklift to Pedestrian
In shared workspaces, forklifts and pedestrians often come dangerously close. Litum’s system detects when a tagged pedestrian approaches a forklift, sending vibration alerts to the pedestrian and audiovisual warnings to the driver, enabling timely action to reduce risks. Advanced options include slowdown and geofencing capabilities.
Pedestrian to Crane
Cranes pose unique safety challenges due to their size and heavy loads, particularly in areas with pedestrian traffic. For crane operations, Litum’s system detects tagged pedestrians entering a crane’s operational zone. Pedestrians receive vibration alerts, while crane operators are notified with audiovisual warnings.
Forklift to Obstacle
In busy warehouses and industrial sites, unexpected obstacles, misplaced inventory, and fixed infrastructure increase collision risks. Litum’s system enhances forklift safety with adaptive proximity detection to identify and alert operators to objects in their path. Real-time proximity warnings enable timely corrective actions, helping prevent collisions.
