STRONG SUPPORT FOR FORKLIFT OPERATORS THAT PAYS FOR ITSELF
Every forklift accident, near miss or equipment stoppage impacts safety, costs and output. Paired with proper training, operator assist solutions can help you protect your crew and make your materials handling work more productive. Hardworking tech like this isn’t just an upgrade to your safety initiatives — it’s a performance multiplier.
ACTIVE ALERTS
Hyster Reaction active alerts notify operators of obstacles or pedestrians around their lift truck to help them exercise caution and steer clear of collisions.
OBSTRUCTION AWARENESS
PEDESTRIAN AWARENESS
Even your most experienced operators can be caught off guard by an obstacle they notice too late or not at all. Obstruction awareness helps identify potential hazards sooner, alerting operators with audible and visual signals that give them time to slow down, adjust course or stop before minor obstacles become major incidents.
In a busy materials handling operation, it’s easy for a pedestrian to enter a forklift’s path without the operator realizing it in time. These award-winning pedestrian awareness solutions use either badges or cameras to detect people near the forklift and provide alerts to give operators more time to react.
PEDESTRIAN DETECTION EVENT DASHBOARD: Forklifts equipped with both the Pedestrian Awareness Camera and Wireless Verification, an advanced offering of Hyster Tracker telemetry, get a pedestrian detection event dashboard at no additional cost. This dashboard provides powerful insights for managers to monitor and analyze pedestrian detection events across sites and equipment.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Learn more about Hyster Reaction and how it can help your operators watch out for pedestrians and curb hazards.
Hyster Reaction continuously monitors environmental inputs and forklift operation and alerts the operator in real time to proactively change their behavior. Active interventions go a step further, assisting by automatically changing the truck’s behavior to help prevent tip-overs, reduce sudden movements that can compromise stability and promote safe handling of loads.
Hyster Reaction is intuitive, operators should receive brief training to understand what alerts are communicating, how the solution interacts with their inputs and how it applies interventions to assist them.
Depending on the forklift model and configuration, the Pedestrian Awareness Camera and certain aftermarket capabilities may be available for retrofit. Contact a certified Hyster dealer for compatibility and installation options.
By helping to enhance the stability of loads and trucks, and by reducing risk of collisions or other accidents, operators can move materials more efficiently and with fewer errors, improving overall operational throughput.
No. Interventions subtly modify forklift performance, while leaving the operator in control of the truck.
The stability systems adjust lift, tilt and speed in real-time to help maintain stability, supporting operators in navigating obstacles, ramps or uneven surfaces safely.
Yes. It can complement other Hyster solutions like telemetry, lights and alarms, load positioners and other features to help you run a safe, efficient material handling environment.
