Made for what moves fast: forklifts and vehicles.
A 12–36V radar sensor that watches for approaching forklifts and vehicles and triggers your projector's warning gobo or beam the moment something enters its detection zone. Per the manufacturer: radar is more suitable for detecting approaching vehicles, offering stable vehicle detection — the right call for forklift lanes, loading docks and vehicle-heavy aisles.
Available on Industrial Projectors category projectors — Titan, Laser Safety Line, Laser Line and LY-Pro. It ships and wires in with your order.
More suitable for detecting approaching forklift trucks, offering stable vehicle detection.
Vehicles & forkliftsMore suitable for detecting people, providing better performance when detecting pedestrians.
People & pedestriansNot strictly either/or — a warehouse aisle carrying both forklift and foot traffic is often best covered with one of each.
Radar sensing is tuned for stable detection of approaching forklifts and vehicles — not easily fooled by people walking past.
Radar detects motion, not video. There's no footage to store, review or worry about — a real advantage where staff or visitor privacy matters.
About 10–23 ft — covers a realistic aisle or dock-door approach zone out of the box.
Radar sensing isn't affected by poor visibility the way a camera can be — reliable triggering in almost any warehouse condition.
Rated -20°C to 50°C (-4°F to 122°F), so it keeps working through a hot loading dock or an unheated warehouse in winter.
Sealed against dust and water for real warehouse and dock-door environments.
Rated for 30,000–40,000 hours of operation — years of continuous duty before replacement.
A standard relay output (max 48V AC/DC, 1A) wires into your projector or warning system.
Best practice: pair with a Camera Sensor on the same aisle if it also carries foot traffic — radar excels at vehicles, camera excels at people, and mixed-traffic zones benefit from both.

Vehicles and forklifts. Per the manufacturer, radar sensing is more suitable for detecting approaching vehicles, offering stable vehicle detection — it's the right choice for forklift lanes, loading docks and vehicle aisles.
Radar for vehicles and forklifts, Camera for pedestrians — they're tuned for different jobs. A warehouse aisle with both forklift and foot traffic often benefits from one of each, not a strict either/or choice.
The Radar Sensor is rated for a 3–7m (about 10–23 ft) detection height — mount it within that range facing the approach path you want covered.
Through a standard relay output (max 48V AC/DC, 1A) that your installer wires to trigger the projector or a connected warning system.
Yes — it's IP65-rated against dust and water, built for a -20°C to 50°C (-4°F to 122°F) operating range, and rated for 30,000–40,000 hours of service — suited to loading docks and unconditioned warehouse space.
Yes — it's offered as an add-on on the LY-Pro and on every projector in our Industrial Projectors category (Titan, Laser Safety Line, Laser Line), wired independently of the projector's own controls.
Open Titan, Laser Safety Line, Laser Line, or LY-Pro and add the Radar Sensor for $638.88 right in the configurator.
Camera Sensor — $698.88
