Abstract:
Pedestrian-Vehicle safety systems for loading docks are disclosed herein. An example safety system includes a first sensor to monitor a first area adjacent a dock, a bi-directional sensor to signal both incoming movement and outgoing movement of a vehicle relative to the dock, and an incoming sensor to signal only incoming movement of the vehicle relative to the dock. A signaling device is responsive to outputs of at least one of the first sensor, the bi-directional sensor, and the incoming sensor.

Inventors:
Allan H. Hochstein - Milwaukee WI, US
Andrew Brooks - Thiensville WI, US
Jason Senfleben - Hartford WI, US
Kenneth C. Bowman - Cedarburg WI, US
Matthew Sveum - Wauwatosa WI, US
James C. Boerger - Racine WI, US

G06K 9/00
G01V 8/20
H04N 7/18
Abstract:
Pedestrian-Vehicle safety systems for loading docks are disclosed herein. An example method disclosed herein includes sensing whether a person is within a certain area adjacent a dock face of a loading dock, emitting a first signal in response to sensing the person being present within the certain area, sensing rearward movement of a vehicle toward the dock face, emitting a second signal in response to sensing rearward movement of the vehicle while the person is not present in the certain area, and emitting a third signal in response to sensing both the rearward movement of the vehicle and the person being present within the certain area.
