Quarion Technology, a leading Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) company, is dedicated to helping warehouse, distribution center, and factory managers achieve incredible levels of productivity while improving overall employee safety. Quarion Technology Inc™ was founded in the USA by Aric Pryor and is headquartered in Indiana.

Quarion Technology Inc.™ began when founder, Aric Pryor pondered two questions:

Do employers know where all of their people are and if they are safe?

How can I improve worker safety by utilizing technology to know their location in real-time?

Aric envisioned a system that uses real-time location data to help solve these problems. In knowing the location of vehicles inside a warehouse, safety rules can be defined to slow vehicles in congested areas, and prevent them from entering unsafe zones.

From that realization, Pryor began to advance his vision by developing and expanding technologies that would help to eliminate accidents related to workers and their proximity to dangerous environments.

Quarion is doing what Pryor envisioned and more:

Quarion offers solutions designed to make your warehouse safer. This is best achieved through the use of Quarion’s Ultra-Wideband (UWB) based QUWB-GPS™ real-time location platform.  QUWB-GPS™ delivers precision location data in indoor settings to provide real-time tracking of powered industrial vehicles, employees, assets, and inventory. QUWB-GPS™ has a wireless data-backhaul, dynamic geo-fencing with Zone Monitor, vehicle speed control with SpeedNFORCE, and even analytics tools using the data gathered with Q-Lytix™.

If you’re not ready for a full QUWB-GPS™ installation, Quarion also offers Q-WAVE with SpeedNFORCE™ to control speeds with pre-defined zones. Q-VisionAI™ uses stereoscopic AI cameras to identify obstacles, including people, in the path of the forklift to slow and/or stop the vehicles until the path is clear.
