Applications / Safety
Clean Pedestrian Way
Detects walkways, aisles, stairs and emergency routes blocked by pallets, materials, cables or equipment, and logs how long each obstruction persists.

What it detects
Harvested from the computer-vision use-case columns of the Q3 industry papers. Every item below is a rule you can switch on, tune per zone and report on.
Blocked aisles and walkways
Flags pallets, cages, materials and equipment left in a marked pedestrian route.
Materials left in pedestrian paths
Identifies staged material that has drifted out of its area and into a walking route.
Blocked emergency exits and fire doors
Surfaces obstruction of exits and fire doors, with the duration attached.
Obstructed stairs, ramps and access panels
Covers stairwells, ramps and the access panels that maintenance needs to reach.
Cables, hoses and loose material underfoot
Detects trailing services run across a route people walk.
Obstructed extinguishers and hydrants
Flags fire equipment that is blocked or no longer visible from the route.
Blocked evacuation and muster routes
Checks the routes an evacuation would actually use, including muster-point approaches.
Duration of obstruction, per route
Measures how long each route stays blocked, which is the number a corrective action needs.
Aisle utilisation and pick-path bottlenecks
The same detections read as operations data: where aisles congest and which pick paths slow down.
Where it applies
The sub-sectors below are the ones the Q3 industry papers name for this detection. Each links to the industry hub.
How it works
01
Runs on the cameras you already have
Inference happens at the edge on your existing CCTV and IP streams. No new camera estate, no video leaving site, no cloud round-trip in the detection loop.
02
Thresholds and zones you configure
Draw the zone, set the rule, set the dwell, count and confidence thresholds. Rules differ by area, shift and task, because sites do.
03
Evidence, not just alerts
Every event is logged with camera, zone, timestamp and a clip, so the record is reviewable afterwards and usable in a corrective action.
04
Integrates with what you already run
Events push into your VMS, alerting and reporting stack through Fogsphere Manager, with dashboards broken down by area, shift and crew.
Risk & control objective
Blocked aisles, exits and fire doors appear in almost every Q3 paper, from warehouse racking aisles to hospital corridors to port walkways. They are also the classic finding that is true at the moment of an audit and untrue an hour later, which makes a periodic walk-round a poor instrument for measuring them.
The control objective is continuous route availability with duration attached, per route rather than per site. What the operator gains is a record of which routes block, how often and for how long — usable both as an egress-integrity record and, read the other way, as an operations signal about where material staging is being pushed into circulation space.
