Certifications & Approvals

Formal approvals and recognized listings that support safe deployment in transportation-led projects.

Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) — Approved Product List

RoadDefender is listed on the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Approved Product List (APL) as a Work Zone Collision Detection and Avoidance System.

This listing confirms that RoadDefender has undergone FDOT’s formal product evaluation process and is approved for use on FDOT projects under maintenance‑of‑traffic applications.

Inclusion on the FDOT APL enables deployment on Florida roadway projects without project‑specific product approval and demonstrates compliance with state transportation evaluation and procurement requirements.

Field Validations

Structured outcomes from real deployments. We share validated observations when available; we do not promise outcomes or make forward-looking claims.

Technology Validation — Samsung Wearables Integration

Context
Validated wearable alert delivery via Samsung Galaxy Watch in live work‑zone conditions.
Problem
Audible and visual alarms are frequently missed in noisy, high‑activity work zones.
Deployment
  • RoadDefender edge detection (radar + camera AI)
  • Samsung Galaxy Watch — multi‑sensory alert delivery
  • Tested in active work‑zone operations
Observed Outcome
  • Alerts delivered directly to workers via wrist
  • Functioned without cloud dependency
  • Confirmed feasibility of instinctive wrist‑based alerting

Early Access Deployments — Asphalt Paving Operations

The deployments below reflect early access use in live paving operations and are shared as field observations, not formal commercial case studies or endorsements.

Early Access Deployment — Asphalt Paving Operations

Preferred Materials

Context
Highway asphalt paving operations, including night work and active traffic exposure.
Problem
Crews operate near live traffic and heavy equipment with limited reaction time during paving.
Deployment
  • Work Zone Coverage configuration
  • Radar + camera AI at the edge
  • Wearables issued to exposed crew members
Observed Behavior
  • Alerts supported early situational awareness
  • System operated without disrupting production workflows
  • Deployment validated compatibility with paving equipment

Early Access Deployment — Asphalt Paving Operations

C.W. Roberts Contracting

Context
Nighttime paving and roadway operations with mixed vehicle movement.
Problem
Reduced visibility and dynamic traffic conditions increase exposure during night operations.
Deployment
  • Edge‑first detection using RoadDefender sensors
  • Wearables used by exposed crew members
  • Alerts processed locally without cloud dependency
Observed Behavior
  • Alerts provided early situational awareness during live night operations
  • System ran continuously through active shifts
  • Deployment validated night‑work suitability

Early Access Deployment — Asphalt Paving Operations

Anderson Columbia

Context
Large‑scale paving operations with multiple crews and production equipment.
Problem
Maintaining consistent safety awareness across crews while preserving production flow.
Deployment
  • RoadDefender deployed across multiple machines
  • Wearables issued to crew members in exposed roles
Observed Behavior
  • Deployment demonstrated scalability across crews and equipment
  • Alerting behavior was consistent across the work zone
  • Installation and durability validated under production conditions

Early Access Deployment — Asphalt Paving Operations

Ranger Construction

Context
Highway asphalt paving operations involving live traffic, multiple production machines, and night work conditions.
Problem
Crews work in close proximity to both external traffic and internal paving equipment with limited reaction time during active production.
Deployment
  • RoadDefender deployed during live paving operations
  • Edge‑first detection using radar + camera AI
  • Wearables issued to exposed crew members
  • Alerts processed locally (no cloud dependency for alerting)
Observed Behavior
  • Alerts supported early situational awareness during active paving
  • Deployment operated without disrupting production workflows
  • Field use contributed to validation of installation, durability, and live‑site integration

Data‑Backed Proof
Time‑Stamped Events and Audit‑Ready Records

RoadDefender's Safety Dashboard creates a factual record of system activity—capturing what happened, when it happened, and where it happened. These records support operational review, internal accountability, and objective evaluation of safety programs.

  • Time‑Stamped Event History
    Every alert, detection, and system event is logged with precise timestamps for chronological review and analysis.
  • Audit‑Ready Logs
    Event records are structured and accessible to support internal audits, incident reviews, and post‑project analysis—without manual reconstruction.
  • Traceability Across Deployments
    System activity can be reviewed across sites, crews, and deployments to support operational accountability and program governance.
Documentary data interface: time-stamped event history, audit-ready logs, and traceability across deployments.
