Optimus Group is the first in the UK with Sateft Shild AI Human-Form Recognition on a Grab Lorry
Across high-risk industries like construction, agriculture and waste management, PPI incidents remain one of the most serious causes of harm in the workplace. Even with robust systems and diligent safety leadership, the risks persist, and the consequences can be severe. Safety Shield’s human form recognition AI, a world-first innovation, acts as a “third eye” for operators, detecting people in outer and high-risk zones to prevent accidents.
At Optimus Group, safety and innovation are at the heart of everything we do.
As the first company in the UK to introduce AI-powered human recognition technology on a grab lorry, we are taking proactive steps to improve site and road safety for both our drivers and the public.
The system uses advanced artificial intelligence to identify pedestrians and vulnerable road users around the vehicle in real time, helping to reduce blind spot risks and provide drivers with additional awareness in busy working environments.
By investing in this cutting-edge technology, we continue to lead the industry in adopting smarter, safer transport solutions while demonstrating our commitment to protecting people, improving operational safety standards, and driving innovation within the haulage sector.
