Agriculture has the highest workplace fatality rate in the UK, with many incidents involving pedestrians being struck by moving machinery, often due to large blind spots behind tractors and trailers

Spot is a retrofit safety system designed to prevent these run-over accidents. It uses a combination of radar and camera sensing to continuously monitor hazardous areas and detect human presence in real time.

When a person is in danger of being run over, the system automatically activates the trailer’s pneumatic braking system to stop the vehicle

By shifting from passive warning systems to active intervention, Spot reduces reliance on operator awareness and provides a reliable, low-maintenance solution to improve safety on farms. Designed for the farming environment, the system is robust, easy to use, and can be easily fitted by the user to existing tractors and trailers.
