How We Help Create Safer, More Productive Construction Operations

Protecting People Around Vehicles

Keep Workers Safe Around Heavy Plant, Without Relying on Operator Awareness Alone.

Construction sites put workers and heavy equipment in close proximity, constantly. Speedshield's AI-powered pedestrian detection camera system, AiVA, gives operators the visibility they need - and the automatic responses that protect people when reaction time isn't enough.

  • 360° blind-spot detection 
  • AI-powered 3D vision
  • No tags or wearables required
  • End-to-end solution
  • Automatic machine slow down and stop capabilities
  • Real-time LED and voice activated operator alerts
  • Near-miss tracking via Speedshield OptiX

Overhead Crane Safety

Protecting People Beneath the Load.

On construction sites, overhead crane operations create some of the highest-consequence hazards - moving loads, constrained working areas, and workers who can't always see what's above them. Speedshield puts automated intelligence around those risks.

  • AI-powered 3D vision 
  • 360° blind-spot detection 
  • Instant slowdown, stop, or lockout capabilities
  • Detects people in all positions without wearables or tags
  • Instant notifications for immediate on-site intervention
  • Full event logging and compliance reporting via Speedshield OptiX

Telemetry & Speed Control

Know What's Happening on Site. Before It Becomes a Problem.

Construction sites are dynamic, high-pressure environments where operator behaviour, equipment condition, and compliance can shift from shift to shift. Speedshield's telemetry technology gives you real-time control across every vehicle and every team on site.

  • Real-time vehicle activity and operator behaviour monitoring
  • Automated speed control
  • Operator access control
  • Instant alerts and incident reporting
  • Fleet analytics via VAM

How AiVA keeps people safe

See, Detect, and Prevent Risk Around Construction Equipment

Monitor

AiVA's AI-powered cameras continuously monitor vehicle-pedestrian interactions across mining sites, detecting people in blind spots and hazard zones up to 12 m (40 ft) away using advanced 3D vision. Every detection and near miss is automatically logged, delivering actionable safety insights without the need for tags, wearables, or additional infrastructure.

Detect

AiVA detects people in all postures, including crouching, hidden, or prone, while minimizing false alerts. Color-coded LED and voice prompts alert operators so they can act before accidents occur. 

Prevent

When pedestrians enter a defined danger zone, AiVA instantly alerts operators and can trigger vehicle slowdown or stop actions to help prevent incidents.

* Subject to OEM integration and vehicle compatibility.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions

Collapsible content

What sets AiVA apart from the competition?

AiVA stands out from competitors by addressing a specific industry safety challenge, rather than developing technology first and seeking applications later.

The system offers a 360-degree "bird's eye" view using multiple durable cameras, capable of spotting people in various positions at ranges of 8 meters and beyond. It also uses advanced 3D imaging techniques to accurately detect pedestrians around industrial vehicles.

Unlike cheaper alternatives that may miss pedestrians in certain situations, AiVA offers superior detection abilities, customizable features, and cloud-based data analysis tools, making it a more reliable choice for industrial safety.

How accurate is AiVA?

In short, very. We designed AiVA to detect one thing only: pedestrians. Even on the most rugged of terrain or the lowest of light.

Why doesn’t AiVA have a display?

We understand the complex demands of operating heavy vehicles. We opted for simple, clear alerts only when needed over giving operators yet another display to monitor. 

Is AiVA easy to install?

AiVA comes pre-configured and already powered up, so you can start reaping the safety benefits across your fleet in a matter of minutes. 

What can prevent the system from detecting pedestrians?

Physical obstructions like trees, vehicles, buildings, and other solid objects can block the system’s view, preventing accurate pedestrian detection. 

What range can AiVA detect pedestrians?

AiVA can detect pedestrians at a distance of 26.2ft and beyond, providing ample warning to operators and allowing them to take necessary precautions.

Does AiVA only detect adult pedestrians in a standing position?

No, AiVA is designed to detect pedestrians of all heights and all positions, including children, without the need for special clothing or devices due to our advanced binocular vision making it the most reliable pedestrian detection product on the market.

How does AiVA enhance visibility over operator blind spots?

AiVA's camera can be strategically positioned to cover blind spots, improving the operator's situational awareness and reducing the risk of collisions.

What additional safety features does AiVA offer?

AiVA can be equipped with speed limiting, automatically slowing down the vehicle when a pedestrian is within 9ft. It also offers cloud storage, enabling the capture of data and video for safety events, facilitating reporting, analytics, training, and continuous improvement.

Will lighting conditions decrease detection capabilities?

While testing has shown excellent results in low-light and nighttime environments, detection accuracy may decrease, potentially leading to delayed or missed detections. Similarly, direct sunlight, reflective surfaces, or high-intensity artificial lighting can cause glare or overexposure which might reduce image clarity and affect detection reliability.  

How do weather and environmental factors affect detection accuracy? 

While AiVA is designed to operate in various conditions, extreme weather can impact its performance. 

  • Adverse weather like rain, fog, snow or dust can affect performance and might reduce camera visibility. 
  • Lens contamination from dirt or water droplets can impact image quality. (Speedshield alerts you when cleaning is needed). 
  • Extreme temperatures might affect sensor sensitivity or slightly slow processing. 

Can the system make mistakes in detection?

Yes, in complex or cluttered backgrounds, the system may generate occasional false alarms or miss detections. This is part of the regular machine learning process. We regularly analyze the system’s performance to identify and correct these errors, gradually improving the model’s accuracy over time. 

Is AiVA a replacement for safe vehicle operation practices? 

No, AiVA is not a replacement for best-practice vehicle operation. The system is intended as an assistive tool and should not be solely relied upon for making safety-critical decisions without human oversight or additional safeguards. Operators are still advised to drive to conditions, remain vigilant, and constantly look for potential dangers.
