Rombit Worker Safety

Where Humans Meet Machines

Collision Avoidance

For both Drivers and Pedestrians

Actively safeguard your workers from collisions with material handling and other moving equipment, and capture valuable new insights on near misses and other safety KPIs. Rombit Collision Avoidance enables you to eliminate any type of man-machine collisions, both indoor and outdoor.

With Rombit’s UWB-based proximity detection system, both drivers and pedestrians receive accurate and real-time notifications of imminent collision situations. Defining the appropriate safe, warning and danger zones around each vehicle minimizes the chance of a collision and even significantly reduces the number of near misses.

360° proximity detection

Two-way UWB ranging technology for highly accurate proximity detection around the vehicle in real-time.

Real-time alerts

Instant notification to both the driver and the pedestrians of any imminent collision risk.

Multiple ranging zones

Define the appropriate safe, warning and danger zones for each type of vehicle.

Configurable alerts

Configure the behavior of each type of collision alert that works for your operations.

Indoor/outdoor

No need for cellular or wifi connectivity; collision avoidance works everywhere all the time.

Safety insights

Keep track of all alerts and near misses, and identify high-risk situations to continuously improve the safety and efficiency of your operations.

Driver authorization

Use the Rombit NFC tag to assign credentials per driver, or integrate with your existing access control system.

Multiple wear factors

Rombit’s wearables are available in several wear factors, such as the velcro strap, clip-on, silicon watch band and lanyard.

Easy installation

Retrofit on all types and brands of material handling and other moving equipment.

Geo-FEncing

Safeguard the area of a permit to work

Rombit allows you to create and activate geofences around a specific area or section of your site that is subject to a permit to work. This geofence is automatically activated upon the issuance of the permit and deactivated when that permit is surrendered or expired.

Driver Behaviour

sustainably decrease the amounts of accidents and near misses

Sudden braking, sudden accelerations, sharp turns, lane crossing and speeding. Bad driver behavior does not only have an impact on the overall safety in the workplace with an increased risk of worker injuries. It has a direct cost impact with potential damages to vehicle or material and increased insurance costs.

Rombit’s Drive allows you to analyse and guide your drivers’ behavior in real-time and sustainably improve overall safety as well as the TCO of your material handling equipment.

Driver safety KPIs

Real-time and historical analysis of non-eco driving, dangerous turning and excessive braking and accelerating.

Individual evaluation

Profile analysis of each driver across all equipment, supporting individual coaching.

Real-time connectivity

Data is automatically and continuously uploaded to the platform in real-time.

Real-time driver feedback

Instant alerts for out of tolerance driving.

Driver authorisation

Use the Rombit NFC tag to assign credentials per driver, or integrate with your existing access control system

Easy retrofit installation

Supports all types and brands of material handling equipment and makes your existing fleet ‘smart’

Certification

Ensure that only permitted operators and contractors execute assigned work orders.

Managing Permits-to-Work (PtW) in your project or production site is labor intensive, time intensive and error prone. Production managers struggle to have full visibility on ongoing non-routine activities, while HSEQ managers aim to eliminate all safety risks during PtW, Lone Worker, Machine Operations and Lock Out/Tag Out/Try Out procedures. Process quality and safety systems rely on manual data inputs, there are no real-time insights. There is little or no visibility into Access Control to certain work or no go zones.

Rombit ensures that only the permitted staff execute the work order and guarantees their safety at all times. Every permit issued by a PtW platform activates a predefined geofence around the area of the work order. The Rombit wearable tracks all entries into the GPS-geofenced or UWB-marked zone, confirms the start and end of the work order when the team enters or exits the zone, or activates an alarm in case of a non-permitted entry.

Automated geofencing

Rombit allows you to create and activate geofences around a specific area or section of your site that is subject to a permit to work. This geofence is automatically activated upon the issuance of the permit and deactivated when that permit is surrendered or expired.

Dynamic access control

During the activation of a geofence, access to the protected zone is limited to the workers assigned to the permit. Upon the entry of a non-permitted worker, Rombit sends an instant alert to both the appropriate HSEQ responsible and the non-permitted worker

Automated work order status updates

The entry of a permitted worker into an active geofence triggers a notification that the execution of the work order has been started. Exiting the geofence can trigger a completion notification.

Integrated with PtW systems

Rombit’s platform APIs support easy integration into existing Permits to Work and LoTo process systems.

Worker safety

Combine with Rombit’s Lone Worker Support module to ensure the real-time safety of permitted workers while working in the danger area.
