A system and method for monitoring an industrial vehicle are presented. The system includes a first imaging subsystem for acquiring a plurality of load-carrying-portion images. A cargo-detection subsystem is configured for analyzing each of the plurality of load-carrying-portion images to determine whether cargo is positioned on the load-carrying portion. A power-detection subsystem is configured for determining when the industrial vehicle is running. A motion-detection subsystem is configured for determining when the industrial vehicle is in motion. An analytics subsystem is configured for calculating the amount of time that the industrial vehicle is running, the amount of time that the industrial vehicle is running while cargo is positioned on the load-carrying portion, the amount of time the industrial vehicle is in motion, and the amount of time the industrial vehicle is in motion while cargo is positioned on the load-carrying portion.

A method and device allowing a driver of a handling machine of the forklift type to position and introduce, in complete safety, the forks of the machine under a load to be handled. A light-beam that projects a luminous mark onto the load to be handled informs the driver of the relative position of the forks with respect to the load to be handled. The light-beam is activated and adjusted depending on the different steps of handling and inclination of the forks, which, for their part, are identified solely on the basis of the measurement of the acceleration acting on the forks. The device, which is installed quickly and protected effectively against collisions, has a high degree of operational autonomy. It improves working conditions and reduces product losses.

A local fleet connectivity system includes a plurality of machines disposed at a location. Each of the plurality of machines include an implement and a prime mover configured to drive the implement. The system includes a connectivity hub configured to establish, via a connectivity module, a connection with the plurality of machines. The connectivity hub is configured to establish a connection with at least one remote server. The connectivity hub is configured to exchange data between the plurality of machines and the at least one remote server. The data flows through the connectivity hub.

A lift device having an implement, a prime mover configured to drive the implement, and a connectivity module communicably coupled with the lift device. The connectivity module is configured to determine a parameter set relating to the lift device, receive a request to provide a status of the component of the lift device, receive a measure associated with the attribute of the component of the lift device, compare the received measure and the threshold measure associated with the attribute of the component of the lift device, and provide, based on the comparison, an indication in accordance with the indication characteristic representing the status of the component of the lift device.

A method of determining a relative elevation of a work machine. The method includes receiving a first pressure reading from a first pressure sensor coupled to a chassis of a work machine and receiving a second pressure reading from a second pressure sensor. The method also includes calculating a first relative elevation of the chassis of the work machine relative to the second pressure sensor by comparing the first pressure reading to the second pressure reading.
