Active jobsites present many operational challenges, including multiple machines, crew members, and bystanders. John Deere precision construction solutions such as Advanced Vision System (AVS), Advanced Object Detection (AOD), and SmartDetect™ can help enhance operator awareness to confidently navigate busy work areas:
- Optional AVS includes two additional digital cameras mounted on the left and right rearview mirror platforms that integrate with the digital rearview (backup) camera to project images on a single dedicated in-cab display.
- Paired with a high-resolution camera and a dedicated display, optional AOD system utilizes radar to provide in-cab operator-audible alerts when objects are detected behind the machine. AOD also adds dynamic path lines that articulate based on the loader's travel motion to the dedicated display to help operators visualize the machine's reverse path.
- Available as a factory install and also as an easily installed field kit for new and existing loaders, optional SmartDetect helps the operator distinguish between objects and people in the machine's reverse travel path. Combined with unique operator-audible alerts, the system issues visual cues highlighting detected objects on the dedicated display. An added external alarm alerts detected individuals in the loader's travel path. SmartDetect requires AVS, AOD, and a dedicated in-cab G5 display as well as software activation.
- Building on SmartDetect capabilities, optional SmartDetect™ Digital utilizes on-machine technologies to create an off-board solution for equipment owners, fleet managers, and safety professionals. Easily accessed through the user-friendly John Deere Operations Center™ mobile app, the system notifies supervisors of near-miss events with corresponding video. Weekly reports of digital usage and jobsite events within a heat-map summary are also available.
