Making Sense of Automation BEA Sensors

With carriers arriving at the loading dock, forklifts driving through  overhead doors, and pedestrians navigating safe walking areas, a  warehouse or distribution facility functions on non-stop activity. There  are safety training, malfunctioning doors, and inclement weather too. Join us as we examine challenges in warehouse facilities.

Technology varies in sensing automation, from infrared to microwave to LASER-based Time-of-Flight. It can be challenging to keep up with the nuances and ideal applications for each. Microwave motion technology is commonly used in food distribution, car dealerships and pharmaceutical clean rooms, to name a few. Join us and our guest, Jim Cavers, as we discuss how to train employees and combat interferences of microwave motion  technology.

From the public entrance to operating rooms, healthcare workers, patients and visitors use automatic doors to navigate the facility. Michelle, a healthcare practitioner,  joins us to discuss how her daily routine has changed since the COVID-19 pandemic and automatic door challenges commonly found in hospitals.

Join BEA’s field experts as they interview guests and dive deep into the world of automation. Our podcast offers listeners insider access and an opportunity to learn about the challenges and resources in automated technology. From retail, healthcare and industrial environments, Making Sense of Automation gives a refreshing take on how automation impacts our daily lives, from pedestrian & equipment safety to energy savings and convenience.
