Automatic Braking in Response to Hazards on Construction Sites
On construction sites, trucks, loaders, dump trucks, cranes, and pedestrians are constantly moving among one another. Despite cameras and detection systems, a single moment of inattention is enough to cause a serious accident.
With EasyBrake, Rietveld introduces an innovative safety solution that goes beyond simply issuing warnings. As an extension of EasyView and EasyDetect , the system—on compatible vehicles—automatically applies the brakes when a person is detected in the danger zone and the driver does not react in time. In this way, EasyBrake helps prevent accidents, injuries, and downtime.
1.
Cameras provide the driver with an optimal view all around the vehicle.
2.
AI cameras detect people or obstacles and immediately issue a visual and audible warning.
3.
If the driver does not react in time, EasyBrake automatically applies the brakes to help prevent a collision or mitigate its impact.
Safety on the Construction Site
The risk of collisions is one of the greatest safety hazards in the construction industry.
Vehicles, machinery, and pedestrians often operate simultaneously in the same space. As a result, there is a growing focus on active safety systems. The Governance Code for Safety in Construction (GCVB) identifies the risk of collisions as one of the five most significant safety risks in the sector. (gc-veiligheid.nl)
EasyBrake helps organizations further mitigate this risk by not only issuing warnings but also—when necessary—automatically intervening.

Frequently Asked Questions About EasyBrake
The automatic braking feature has been developed for compatible Volvo vehicles. Please contact Rietveld to discuss which vehicles are compatible.
No. RedLine projects a clear safety line on the ground and warns bystanders to stay out of the danger zone. It is a preventive safety solution, not a detection system.
EasyDetect detects people and obstacles and alerts the driver. EasyBrake goes a step further and can automatically apply the brakes if the driver does not respond.
Yes. EasyBrake was developed specifically for high-risk work environments such as construction sites, where vehicles and pedestrians operate in close proximity to one another.
