Hi,
I am new to this forum.
My name is David Huisman and I have a Electronic development and manufacturing company located in NSW, Australia.
I am looking for feedback from forklift owners and operators regarding the features that would be important to them in a collision detection system. The aim is to use any information received to better serve the industry by supplying systems that satisfy actual needs.

Some valuable insight for me would include:
What style of mounting of tghe devices would be most convenient to fit
Any IP rating requirements
Whether mult-zone detection is important (a pre-warning zone and then alarm zone for example)
What methods of setting the range between objects would be considered to provide ease of installation and configuration
Is a visual and/or audible warning in the cab useful as well as the main Relay contact outputs provided when objects are detected
For units worn by people, would a belt clip, helmet attachment or fit-in-the pocket style of
enclosure be most appropriate.
In addition to preventing forklifts from colliding with people and buildings, is there a requirement for mobile beacons that can mark "kepp out" or danger zones ?

Thanks in advance for any information you may be prepared to share with me. I assume this safety form is the most appropriate place to ask this sort of question.
