SAIFI makes your environment responsive.
SAIFI is an advanced, vision-based detection system that monitors defined risk zones in real time and automatically controls access, warnings and barriers based on live site conditions. Powered by intelligent AI technology and delivered by WSS, SAIFI adds a responsive control layer to your existing safety infrastructure — without replacing what already works.

Forklift & Pedestrian Interaction
PPE Entry Compliance
Why Traditional Safety Controls Still Leave Gaps
Barriers, line marking and signage remain essential. However, they do not respond to changing conditions in real time.
Risk develops dynamically — and static controls rely on awareness and behaviour alone to manage it.
A forklift enters a blind corner
No barrier or line marking can respond to what is approaching from the other side. The risk exists in the moment — not in the layout.
A pedestrian steps into a traffic lane
Signage was visible. Markings were in place. The decision happened in a moment of inattention that no static control could prevent.
PPE compliance drops during shift change
High-volume entry points are difficult to monitor consistently. Standards that hold under supervision can slip when attention is divided.
A restricted zone is breached
Access controls define boundaries. They do not detect movement once those boundaries are crossed or monitor what happens inside.
SAIFI strengthens these controls by observing activity, identifying defined risk conditions and triggering predefined responses automatically.
It enhances physical safety systems — it does not replace them.
The Technology
A Trainable Detection Platform — Configured Around Your Risk
SAIFI is not a fixed-function camera system. It is a configurable vision-based detection platform that can be trained to recognise objects, behaviours or environmental conditions specific to your site.
Detection logic is defined during system design and refined over time. As your site evolves, the system evolves with it.
This may include:
-
Pedestrian presence in vehicle zones
Continuous monitoring of shared-use areas where pedestrian and vehicle paths intersect.
-
Vehicle movement patterns
Detection of forklift approach, speed and direction within defined risk zones.
-
PPE compliance
Real-time verification of required personal protective equipment at controlled entry points.
-
Restricted access breaches
Immediate detection of unauthorised personnel or vehicle entry into controlled areas.
-
Equipment obstruction
Identification of materials or machinery blocking traffic lanes, fire exits or emergency access routes.
-
Defined exclusion zone penetration
Instant response when any boundary is crossed in zones that must remain clear at all times.
Controlled Forklift & Pedestrian Interaction
In shared-use zones, segregation often relies on signage and awareness. With SAIFI installed, the zone is continuously monitored and separation is dynamically enforced — reducing reliance on reaction time alone.
Forklift Approaches
The system detects vehicle movement and immediately scans the defined zone for pedestrian presence.
Pedestrian Detected
Forklift access remains locked. Visual warnings activate. The vehicle waits until the zone is clear.
Zone Clears
Pedestrian gates secure. Forklift access unlocks. Vehicle entry is permitted safely.
If Both Enter Simultaneously
PPE Compliance at Controlled Entry Points
Maintaining consistent PPE compliance can be challenging in high-volume environments. With SAIFI deployed at entry zones, the process is immediate, consistent and impartial.
Individual Approaches
Individual is scanned as they approach. Required PPE is verified in real time before access is granted.
Compliant
Gate unlocks. Entry is seamless. No supervisor intervention required.
PPE Missing
Projected warning appears in front of the individual. Gate remains locked. Visual alert activates.
Designed to Support Behaviour — Not Replace It
SAIFI is not a substitute for safe systems of work.
It is deployed where core controls are already in place, behavioural expectations are clear, and leadership supports proactive risk management.
- Core controls are already in place
- Behavioural expectations are clear
- Leadership supports proactive risk management
The system reinforces discipline.
It does not remove responsibility.
Phased Deployment — Start With One Defined Risk Area
SAIFI is often introduced in a single high-risk location, such as:
- A blind crossing
- A loading bay intersection
- A controlled access point
Once proven, the system can expand into additional zones. This phased approach:
- Reduces capital risk
- Demonstrates measurable value
- Builds internal confidence
- Supports structured budget planning
Integrated With Your Existing Safety Infrastructure
SAIFI delivers maximum value when integrated into wider safety systems. WSS ensures it operates alongside:
- Barrier protection systems
- Forklift–pedestrian segregation
- Projected safety signage
- Access control infrastructure
- Site-wide safety management systems
Supported Like Critical Equipment — Not Left as Software
Industrial environments operate at pace. If safety systems are down, they must be addressed promptly. WSS provides:
- Structured commissioning
- Defined ownership
- Clear support pathways
- Ongoing optimisation
- Integration with operational stakeholders
