Intelligent Proximity Alert System (IPAS)
“Enhance safety with the Intelligent Proximity Alert System (IPAS), providing real-time alerts for nearby obstacles.”
Collision Prevention System
IPAS (Intelligent Proximity Alert System) is a safety-assisting device which prevents collisions between pedestrians and vehicles by signaling dangers in 2-way communication to both driver and pedestrian in industrial sites.
Each device determines the distance from the vehicle tag based on the time delay of the return signal. With Ultrawideband technology, IPAS measures the distance precisely and provides highly reliable collision warnings. This system is designed not only for anti-collision between vehicle and people, but also for vulnerable areas (e.g. intersections, corners).

Vehicle ↔ Pedestrian Proximity Alert
IPAS is an advanced collision avoidance system that delivers bidirectional alerts to both pedestrians and drivers in your workplace. You can easily tailor caution and danger areas within a 30m distance, and configure visual and audible alerts for each area.
Vehicle ↔ Vehicle Proximity Alert
IPAS is designed to prevent vehicle collisions through a distance-based proximity alert system. If other vehicles enter a caution or danger range, the controller issues an audible warning with LCD/LED alerts.
Blind Zone Alert (Vehicle → Zone Tag)
In addition to basic vehicle-to-vehicle or vehicle-to-pedestrian proximity alerts, IPAS provides a stational type of tag device for workers who do not carry tags. Users can install the stational tags in blind areas with limited visibility such as corners or around entrances and exits to notify of the approach of a vehicle through a flashlight.
Crossway Collision Avoidance Alert (Zone ↔ Vehicle)
IPAS enhances safety at intersections by managing traffic sequence on a first-come, first-served basis, prioritizing vehicles that reach the intersection first. Equipped with stationary tags at crossways, vehicles receive clear signals to either proceed or pause, ensuring orderly and safe navigation.
Safety Zone Configuration
IPAS can establish a silent environment in places like rest areas, and garages, where proximity alerts are not necessary. When vehicles are detected within a designated safety zone or white zone, caution and danger alert will be deactivated. If workers exit the safety zone, the alarm can automatically reactivate, ensuring continuous workplace safety.
Scalability and Compatibility with External Devices
IPAS can serve as a trigger for automated scenarios with external devices. When a vehicle enters the preset area, it can activate or deactivate external devices such as parking gate barriers, relays, lamps, and more. With IPAS’s remarkable scalability, you can create an optimized workplace safety environment.
