Revolutionizing Forklift Safety with AI: The Toyota and Fujitsu Collaboration
In a groundbreaking move, Toyota Material Handling Japan (™HJ), a division of Toyota Industries Corporation, and Fujitsu Limited have joined forces to develop Japan’s first AI Forklift Driving Analysis service. This innovative service evaluates the safety of forklift driving in the cloud, combining ™HJ’s logistics expertise with Fujitsu’s cutting-edge AI technology. Available through ™HJ’s FORKLORE suite of IoT subscription services for logistics sites, this collaboration marks a significant leap forward in enhancing safety measures in warehouses and factories.
With forklifts being a common sight in dynamic environments where people and goods are constantly in motion, the importance of safe driving practices cannot be understated. Traditionally, safety evaluations have relied on dash cameras, which require hours of manual review to identify unsafe operations. The AI Forklift Driving Analysis service streamlines this process by leveraging Fujitsu Kozuchi’s AI capabilities to automatically detect unsafe operations from dash camera footage. This not only saves time but also provides objective data for targeted safety training and feedback.
™HJ, a leading forklift manufacturer, has been at the forefront of leveraging data for product development and customer support. Their FORKLORE suite of services, including Dashcam Connect and Battery Connect, has empowered customers to make informed decisions based on real-time data. The addition of the AI Forklift Driving Analysis service further solidifies their commitment to enhancing safety and efficiency in logistics operations.
On the other hand, Fujitsu’s AI service, Fujitsu Kozuchi, provides the technical backbone for evaluating operator movements and environmental factors to assess safety driving levels. By harnessing the advanced image analysis capabilities of Fujitsu Kozuchi, the AI Forklift Driving Analysis service sets a new standard for safety in the workplace.
As both companies continue to innovate and collaborate, the future looks promising for the logistics industry in Japan. Through harnessing the power of AI and data analytics, Toyota Material Handling Japan and Fujitsu aim to create a safer and more secure working environment for all.
