Convoy Guardian is an offline mesh bridge-strike prevention system for oversize and heavy-haul convoys. It pairs two independent detection methods with a self-forming radio mesh that alerts every crew member in under 100 milliseconds, and records every reading to an audit-grade blackbox. It is made by SolTec Innovation and is the "Move It." layer of the RoadScope Route Intelligence platform.
Two independent detection methods feeding one mesh. LiDAR on the lead vehicle sees the strike coming; the smart impact pole confirms the instant contact happens. Compare both methods →
Every crew member alerted simultaneously in under 100 ms. Zero cell towers required. Works in mountain passes, rural highways, and private industrial sites. How the mesh works →
Every clearance reading, every alert, every crew acknowledgment — recorded to an audit-grade tamper-evident log. Evidence for permit review and incident post-mortem.
Drivers and escort crew onboard in under 30 seconds. No accounts, no downloads, no delays. One code, one session, one convoy.
Most bridge-strike systems pick one bet: either they predict the strike, or they detect it. Convoy Guardian runs both, because they fail in different places. Method 01 is a LiDAR sensor on the lead vehicle that measures overhead clearance continuously and fires the mesh before the load reaches the structure — which works when the corridor is known and the approach is clean. Method 02 is a smart impact pole on the load whose accelerometers register the instant of contact and strobe a 360° beacon — which works when the structure was never surveyed, when the approach angle hides it, or when the LiDAR is not fitted at all.
Run either alone, or both in parallel for defense-in-depth. Both feed the same mesh and both write to the same blackbox log, so the evidence trail is identical either way. See the side-by-side comparison.
OS/OW carriers, project cargo operators, escort and pilot-car services, and permit consultants — anyone routing a load under structures where the clearance margin is thin and the crew is spread across several vehicles. It is built for the sites where cell towers fail: mountain passes, rural corridors, and private industrial yards.
