John Deere Introduces SmartDetect™ Digital for Loaders – a Tool for Jobsite Managers

MOLINE, Ill.  John Deere continues to add to its suite of jobsite technology solutions with the introduction of SmartDetect™ Digital for select mid-size and large-size loaders. Building on the success of SmartDetect, available as an option on select loaders, SmartDetect Digital—the digital license component—provides powerful insights that jobsite managers can incorporate into their safety programs.

"At John Deere, we're continuously innovating to help protect both the people operating our machines and those working around them," said Katie Voelliger, product marketing manager, John Deere. "SmartDetect Digital underscores our commitment to leveraging obstacle awareness technology, providing fleet supervisors the ability to receive notifications in near real-time when an incident occurs."

SmartDetect offers audible and visual alerts when objects, including bystanders, are detected behind the loader. It dynamically adjusts its alert system based on object proximity, escalating warnings as the machine gets closer to objects. With the addition of SmartDetect Digital, jobsite managers can respond more efficiently to jobsite layout and traffic.
