Earth-moving machinery. Object detection systems and visibility aids. Performance requirements and tests
12-01-2018
This document specifies general requirements and describes methods for evaluating and testing the performance of object detection systems (ODSs) and visibility aids (VAs) used on earth-moving machines. It covers the following aspects:
-
detection or visibility or both of objects including people in the detection zone;
-
visual, audible, or both warnings to the operator and if appropriate to the persons in the detection zone;
-
operational reliability of the system;
-
compatibility and environmental specifications of the system.
It is applicable to machines as defined in ISO6165 . An ODS, VA or both can be used to augment the operator’s direct vision (see ISO5006 ) or indirect vision using mirrors (see ISO14401 ). In addition, an ODS, VA or both can be used to provide additional means of object detection or view, for example, where ergonomic considerations limit the effectiveness of direct vision and to avoid repeated turning of the head and upper body.
