MAX-SAFE VISION
ADVANCED SOLUTIONS FOR IMPROVED VISION-BASED SAFETY
MAX-SAFE VisionTM is an exciting and affordable range of camera-related solutions that incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to give heavy vehicles drivers and fleet managers total visibility and certainty.
Using state of the art technology, our integrated camera solutions, under the name of MAX-SAFE ViewTM, deliver the most advanced vision-based safety available.
WHAT IS THE VISION RANGE?
MAX-SAFE Vision solutions assist operators drive safely when moving in any direction on roads and work sites.
MAX-SAFE Vision components include various cameras, screens and recording technologies, all of which can be tailored to provide an accurate view of any situation.
Our Vision range of solutions and features, include:
- Single and Multi-Camera inputs
- Digital Recording & Back to Base Options
- Vulnerable Road User/Pedestrian Detection
- Analog High Definition (AHD), Digital and Thermal Imaging
- Large, in-cab high quality monitor with zoom functionality
We can provide a solution to fit a wide-range of industries and applications – from a point solution to protect pedestrians from a turning vehicle – to all-round vehicle coverage.
Options are available to detect vulnerable road users and protect pedestrians in blind spots at:
- The front of a vehicle. See MAX-SAFE Front ViewTM.
- The corners of a vehicle. See MAX-SAFE Corner ViewTM.
- The sides of a vehicle. See MAX-SAFE Side ViewTM.
- The rear of a vehicle. See MAX-SAFE Rear ViewTM.
- All around the vehicle. See MAX-SAFE 360 ViewTM and 360 Trailer ViewTM.
BLIND SPOT COVERAGE ZONES

HOW IT WORKS
A mounted camera scans the incoming image to determine if it recognises a person – either moving or stationery – within a defined danger zone, (which is configurable). It does this by processing the image via an AI chip within the camera.
On detection, the system reacts instantaneously by triggering a range of options as highlighted in the table below.
SAFETY OPTIONS | STANDARD | ADVANCED | PREMIUM |
---|---|---|---|
In-Cabin light and audible voice alert | X | X | X |
External loud speaker audible voice alert | X | X | |
External flashing light bar | X | X | |
Active Braking on detection1 | X |
1MAX-SAFE Anti-Rollaway Brake solution required.
A recordable monitor can be added (not mandatory) across any of the options to provide the driver with vision of what the camera is seeing (with the danger zone outlined) – while capturing video for later retrieval.

WHY IS THIS SOLUTION NEEDED?
Our Vision Solutions assist drivers to move forward, turn corners, change lanes and reverse more safely and with certainty.
Heavy vehicles make up around 3% of the vehicles on Australian and New Zealand roads, yet are involved in around 16% of fatal road crashes. Across the region, pedestrians, cyclists and motor cyclists (VRUs) account for around 1 in 3 road deaths.
Blind spots are a major factor for many heavy vehicle crashes, masking up to 40% of visibility on some vehicles. These blind spots are major risks to VRUs, site workers and the general public. In fact, two-thirds of pedestrians killed on the road each year are killed by vehicles doing less than 60 km/hr. (2018 figures).
With more VRUs on shared roads in our cities along with more heavy vehicles due to construction projects and T&L it’s important that heavy vehicles have advanced and affordable pedestrian protection solutions.
Being able to detect VRUs keeps our roads and communities safer while saving all parties the physical, emotional and financial toll resulting from injuries and fatalities.
TRUST MAX-SAFE
With over twenty years’ experience in providing safety solutions we’re able to design an integrated solution that’s right for any application and industry.
Our Vision solutions have been developed through our understanding of the blind spots vehicles have and the challenges driver face in any situation.
The full range provides the best detection of vulnerable road users, vehicles, and property – giving drivers and fleet managers greater confidence knowing they can see everything around their vehicle.
Our Vision solutions are part of our MAX-SAFE Safety Eco-System and can be integrated with other MAX-SAFE solutions like automatic braking and audible and visual alerts (e.g., flashing lights).
When combined with other MAX-SAFE solutions from the MAX-SAFE Safety Eco-System, MAX-SAFE Vision helps to increase the overall level of fleet safety maturity.
With these solutions on board, Fleet Managers know they are doing their all to protect their drivers, vulnerable road users and property.
