Systems, methods, and media for safety reinforcement for a personal protective equipment (PPE) device for a material handling vehicle are provided. The safety reinforcement system can include a control unit co-located with the material handling vehicle and configured to receive an identification from the PPE device, communicate the identification to a server, receive an operating routine for the identified PPE device from the server in response to the identification, receive a first operational data from the PPE device, and transmit a limiting instruction to a subsystem of the material handling vehicle according to the operating routine. The operating routine may comprise at least one of a translation routine and a governing rule. The limiting instruction may limit a function of the material handling vehicle.

Systems and methods for material handling vehicle safety reinforcement

Systems and methods for material handling vehicle simulation are provided. In one aspect, a method for material handling vehicle simulation using a material handling vehicle includes connecting a simulation controller to a simulation port, providing an input to a soft switch on a touch screen, upon providing the input to the soft switch on the touch screen, triggering the material handing vehicle to transition from the standard mode to the simulation mode, and projecting a simulated environment onto a simulation display. The simulated environment is configured to simulate operation of the material handling vehicle on the simulation display.

Systems and methods for vehicle simulation

One or more material handling vehicles of a fleet can be equipped with telematics controllers and configured for wireless communication. In different arrangements, the material handling vehicles of the fleet can communicate with each other and with a management system, in order to effect management of the fleet and of particular material handling vehicles belonging thereto.

Systems and methods for a material handling vehicle network

Provided are systems and methods for monitoring the position of a handle of a material handling vehicle comprising a handle, a first sensor positioned along the material handling vehicle, a second sensor positioned along the handle, and a controller configured to retrieve first positional information from the first sensor, retrieve second positional information from the second sensor, and compare the first positional information with the second positional information. The controller can adjust the operation of at least one of a lift motor and a drive motor of the material handling vehicle based on the comparison of the first positional information with the second positional information.

Handle position sensing systems and methods for a material handling vehicle

Systems and methods for a material handling vehicle include a controller and a near field communication reader adapted to communicate with the controller. The controller is configured to activate at least one of a software option and a hardware option when a near field communication device encoded with option information is placed within an operable range to the near field communication reader.
