Brief Description:

The SCAN~LINK Passive RFID Armour System™ utilises RFID to alert a driver in reverse, that a ground worker is behind them. It has been designed to reduce the chance of someone being struck, by increasing the likelihood that tagged personnel working near mobile equipment will be detected.

Key Features and Other Technical Information:
  • The system requires the ground workers to wear an Armour equipped safety vest and/or hard hat. They will then be detected via the passive RFID tags installed discreetly in the apparel.
  • The system consists of an antenna, display, external alarm and bracket and is designed to work with optional components and the SCAN~LINK Apparel.
  • The antenna also records and stores valuable usage data such as the time, date and apparel ID of every event that is detected.
