a range setting part that sets the surrounding region as a detection range to detect the detection target without setting the driver's seat as the detection range in the first mode, and sets the driver's seat as the detection range in the second mode; and
first processor is further configured to function as:
a condition determination part that performs transition to the second mode upon satisfaction of at least one additional condition in addition to an operation on the mode selection part for transitioning to the second mode, wherein the condition determination part sets, as the at least one additional condition, detection by a seat sensor that a person is sitting in a seat of the driver's seat.
2 . The industrial vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein
the detection device comprises:
an imaging device configured to capture an image of the surrounding region and the driver's seat to acquire imaging data; and
an image processing part that detects the detection target based on the imaging data, and
the range setting part does not set a region corresponding to the driver's seat in the imaging data as a region of interest of image processing performed by the image processing part in the first mode, and sets the region corresponding to the driver's seat in the imaging data as the region of interest in the second mode.
3 . The industrial vehicle according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a directional lever for switching a travel direction of the industrial vehicle; and
a lever sensor for detecting that the directional lever is at a forward position setting the travel direction to a forward direction, and that the directional lever is at a rear position setting the travel direction to a reverse direction, wherein
the imaging device comprises:
a front camera that captures an image of the surrounding region on a front side of the industrial vehicle and the driver's seat; and
a rear camera that captures an image of the surrounding region on a rear side of the industrial vehicle and the driver's seat,
the detection device further comprises:
a camera selection part, and
in the second mode, based on the lever sensor, the camera selection part:
causes the image processing part to perform image processing on the imaging data from the front camera in a case of determining that the directional lever is at the forward position, and
causes the image processing part to perform image processing on the imaging data from the rear camera in a case of determining that the directional lever is at the rear position.
4 . The industrial vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein
the condition determination part sets, as the at least one additional condition, detection by a brake sensor that a parking brake of the industrial vehicle is in an engaged state.
5 . The industrial vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a display device; and
a display control part that causes the display device to display the additional condition that is not satisfied, upon determination by the condition determination part that the mode selection part is operated for transitioning to the second mode but the at least one additional condition is not satisfied.
6 . The industrial vehicle according to claim 5 , wherein
the display device comprises a display of a touch panel type, and
the mode selection part comprises a button displayed on the display.
7 . The industrial vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a seat sensor for detecting that a person is sitting in a seat of the driver's seat, and
upon detection of a person by the detection device in the second mode, based on the seat sensor, the notification control part:
outputs the alarm in a first configuration in a case of determining that the person is sitting in the seat, and
outputs the alarm in a second configuration different from the first configuration in a case of determining that the person is not sitting in the seat.
8 . The industrial vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a travel control part that controls a travel device of the industrial vehicle to perform deceleration control or stop control of travel upon detection of the detection target by the detection device.
9 . The industrial vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein
the notification device comprises:
a light that outputs light; and
a horn that outputs sound.
10 . The industrial vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein
the industrial vehicle is a forklift.
11 . A notification system having a first mode and a second mode,
the notification system comprising:
a detection device which includes a camera and is and configured to detect at least one of a person or an object present in a surrounding region of the industrial vehicle and a person present in a driver's seat of an industrial vehicle;
a notification device provided at the industrial vehicle and configured to output an alarm by at least one of sound or light;
a first processor configured to function as
a mode selection part comprising at least one of a button displayed on a display or a mechanical switch operated for causing the notification system to transition to the first mode and the second mode; and
a notification control part that causes the notification device to output the alarm upon detection of a detection target by the detection device, wherein
the detection device comprises a second processor configured to function as:
a range setting part that sets the surrounding region as a detection range to detect the detection target without setting the driver's seat as the detection range in the first mode, and sets the driver's seat as the detection range in the second mode; and
first processor is further configured to function as:
a condition determination part that performs transition to the second mode upon satisfaction of at least one additional condition in addition to an operation on the mode selection part for transitioning to the second mode, wherein the condition determination part sets, as the at least one additional condition, detection by a seat sensor that a person is sitting in a seat of the driver's seat.
