Abstract
Various embodiments are directed to mounting devices for fall protection devices and methods of using the same. In various embodiments, a mounting device may comprise a mounting bracket configured for attachment to a materials handling vehicle; a rotary arm rotatably attached to the mounting bracket at an arm base, wherein the rotary arm is configured to rotate relative to the mounting bracket about an axis of rotation defined at the arm base, and wherein the rotary arm defines a webbing retention feature configured for receiving a webbing of a fall protection device to define a dynamic engagement of the rotary arm with an intermediate webbing portion defined along the webbing; a sensing device configured to capture sensor data associated with the intermediate webbing portion; and a controller configured to detect a connection condition associated with the fall protection device based on the sensor data captured by the sensing device.
