Cat® Detect Technology

What can detect do for me?

By improving operator awareness of the work environment, Cat^® Detect technology helps make your site safer every minute of every day. That not only means fewer accidents and injuries—it also means less money spent on lost personnel time, equipment damage and lost production.

Cat Detect lets your operators concentrate on the task at hand and work more productively. Some CCTV cameras and tracking devices even record safety “events,” which you can use to train operators or make changes on site to build a stronger safety culture.

What safety management technology is available?

Choose the safety management system that’s right for your job needs, fleet and budget:

CCTV Camera Systems: Help eliminate blind spots and enhance operators’ views around equipment during startup and operation with CCTV cameras tied to an in-cab display. Choose from one to four cameras in heavy-duty, light-duty and build-to-fit systems.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Systems: Add another layer of protection with RFID tags attached to ground personnel or fixed objects. An in-cab alarm and external speaker alert operators and ground workers when they get too close.
Machine Security Systems: Get more control over who can operate your machines and when by requiring a special electronic key or passcode to start equipment.
Object Detection Systems: Help your operators detect potential hazards in critical zones around the machine. Radar detects objects to the front, rear and side, and onboard cameras show operators exactly where and how far away hazards are located.

How do I get started?

Cat Detect technology works on any machine—existing or new, regardless of manufacturer. CCTV cameras and vehicle tracking systems are available from the factory on new Cat equipment or as aftermarket or retrofit solutions from your Cat or SITECH dealer.
