The AMT Collision Avoidance System has been developed in response to industry requirements for a safer, more productive and less stressful working environment when using Heavy Vehicles (HV) and Large Mobile Equipment. The CAS design enables the installation of the system in it's entirety (CAS-CAM/RF®) or the high resolution colour video system (CAS-CAM) as a stand alone product. The CAS-CAM has the necessary in-built smarts to interface directly to the Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver system at a later stage, should the client so desire. The complete CAS-CAM/RF® system provides a visual and audible warning of impending danger in the event a tagged unit enters the designated "AT RISK" zone associated with the HV. KEY PERFORMANCE CAPABILITIES Visual and audible warning to the operator of the HV when LV's, Personnel or tagged Stationary Objects are within the programmed detection range. Warning the the "AT RISK" personnel and/or vehicle/s when they are within the programmed detection range. Visual identification of the LV's or stationary objects within the programmed detection range. Multiple programmable detection zones. Coded identification of objects within detection range displayed at all times. Data logging capability on all Heavy Vehicles and Light Vehicles for monitoring. Reliable operation in adverse environmental conditions (e.g. dust, fog, smoke and darkness). Improved vision for the Heavy Vehicle operator. System assists without inhibiting current operations. Mechanism for Heavy Vehicle acknowledgement of alarms. Safety Audit trail in the event of a collision. Easy interface with existing Fleet Management System via RS-232, RS-485 or CAN interfaces. Eliminates or significantly reduces the noise problems caused by the current audible reversing alarms. HOW IT WORKS The CAS-CAM/RF®  System utilises two state-of-the-art technologies to aid in the prevention of collisions:- Colour video cameras with a high resolution LCD Display Unit, and Radio Frequency (RF) transceivers. These technologies have been integrated into a unique collision avoidance system providing the operators with advanced automatic object detection and classification. The system also provides an automatic warning that identifies potential collisions and alerts the HV operator the areas where collisions could occur.  At  the same time, a warning is given to the "AT RISK" object of impending danger. All HV, LV, Personnel and Stationary Objects are fitted with an RF transceiver tag.  The HV continually receives and transmits and is, therefore, always aware of any "AT RISK" objects within the designated range. These signals are also detected by the LV, Personnel, Stationary Object and/or HV tags.  All tags transmit an identification code which is deciphered by the CAS-CAM/RF® systems and classified.  The number of tags detected in each class is displayed on the HV Display Unit. APPLICATIONS The CAS-CAM/RF® technology is the result of three years development by AMT.  It is suitable for and industry where Heavy Vehicles and Large Mobile Equipment are used, for example;- Quarrying / Mining / Earthmoving & Construction Forklift / Handling / Storage Road / Rail Transport Agriculture Refuse Industry Any other poor visibility environment involving heavy vehicles.     Please contact: Ewoud Rykaart for any AMT enquiries on 082 378 9842 or at ewoud@probegroup.co.za
