From first warning to documented response.
Six stages, from watching the truck to learning from what happened. Whether each one can work as described is what the development program is built to establish.
Step 1: Monitor
Sensors watch designated truck zones for unusual thermal conditions.
Step 2: Assess
Control logic evaluates readings, faults and operating state.
Step 3: Alert
The operator receives a clear warning and recommended next steps.
Step 4: Mitigate
Validated suppression equipment may activate automatically or manually, according to the approved design.
Step 5: Escalate
If conditions persist, the operator follows emergency procedures and contacts responders.
Step 6: Document
System events can support maintenance review and fleet safety analysis.
Response logic and suppression effectiveness will be established through engineering tests and applicable approvals. The system is not a substitute for operator training or emergency services.
