Audible Cone Alert Systems, Inc.

INDUSTRY APPLICATION

Active Alert Safety System for Aircraft Ground Operations

AudibleCone™ is intended for aviation ground environments where vehicles and personnel operate near parked aircraft and restricted movement areas.

The system adds an active alert layer to existing cone and PPE-based safety practices, supporting awareness without altering established ground operations procedures.

AudibleCone™ is intended to augment existing ground safety practices, PPE, training, and regulatory compliance. Responsibility for safety planning and deployment remains with the operating organization.

High-Value Assets, Limited Margin for Error

Aircraft ground operations involve frequent vehicle movement around personnel and aircraft within defined safety and clearance zones.

Ground crews are often focused on loading, fueling, servicing, or positioning equipment rather than monitoring approaching vehicles.

AudibleCone™ is intended to add an active alert layer during these activities.

When Attention Is on the Aircraft, Not Traffic

Cones, vests, markings, and procedures are essential for defining safety zones in aviation environments. These measures rely on visual awareness and compliance.

In active ramp environments, noise, vehicle density, and time pressure can affect perception.

AudibleCone™ does not replace mandated ground safety measures. It is intended to supplement them by providing audible and tactile (wearable device) active alerts when a deployed cone-mounted sensor is impacted.

Typical Aviation Applications

Aircraft Safety Perimeters

Introduces audible and tactile (wearable device) active alerts when a deployed cone-mounted sensor is impacted within cone-defined safety zones around parked aircraft.

Ground Crew Operations

Applicable during baggage handling, fueling, catering, and maintenance activities.

Vehicle Movement Near Aircraft

Introduces an active alert layer in environments with frequent ground service vehicle traffic.

Intended to Augment Existing Ground Safety Practices

AudibleCone™ is intended to integrate with FAA-mandated cone usage, PPE requirements, and established ground operations procedures.

The system does not prescribe safety zone layouts, aircraft clearances, or operational protocols, which are governed by applicable regulations and airport policies.

Built for Active Ramp Environments

Aviation ground operations require equipment that can adapt to changing conditions without interfering with established workflows.

AudibleCone™ is intended to deploy using cones and equipment already in use on the ramp.

Why Aviation Teams Evaluate AudibleCone™

Standards and Safety Alignment

AudibleCone™ is designed for use in environments governed by FAA ground safety practices and research addressing vehicle-to-aircraft and vehicle-to-person risks.

The system is positioned as an augmenting technology and does not claim certification or approval unless explicitly stated.
