BODYGUARD "i-Tag" SYSTEM COMPONENTS.

How it works:

Staff and visitors must wear a small lightweight "Tag" unit. (Around neck and belt lanyard options).
"i-Tag" detector and alert unit must be installed onto vehicles. (Magnetic mounting).When a person is detected within the zone of the detector (4-5m typical), the alert unit will provide both audible and visual warning for the driver. The driver can then control the vehicle to avoid an accident.
The system effectively lowers risk in the workplace by increasing driver awareness of people close to their vehicle. Until a person is detected, the system is non-invasive and does not interfere with normal driver activity or slow down the work process.
The system requires no adjustments or maintenance (apart from replacing Tag batteries approximately every 2 years).
The system operates in poor visibility conditions, smoke, dust and rain. The Tag orientation has minimal effect on system performance.
