IRIS 860 Pedestrian detection sensor

Protect Your People. Reduce Your Risk.

The IRIS 860 is SEEN’s cutting-edge pedestrian detection sensor designed to protect people and high-value infrastructure from forklifts and other mobile machinery. Using advanced infrared laser technology, the IRIS 860 detects retroreflective tape on high-visibility workwear (PPE) and instantly delivers a clear audible alert when a person or marked object enters a hazardous proximity zone.
