Trucks & industrial vehicles

Kenworth Truck Company

• (2002 Mar) Kenworth teamed with Heil Trailer International to produce a T800 High-Tech Truck. When the driver’s fingerprint is verified via a sensor, the vehicle can be operated at normal traffic speeds. If the fingerprint doesn’t match, the vehicle can still be started. But it’s at a severely restricted horsepower, thus limiting operation to well below normal speeds. The fleet dispatcher also receives an alert message via wireless communication that an unauthorized user is involved.

SmarTruck

• (2001) The Smartruck / Smart Truck I is a concept truck, based on a Ford F-350, using a fingerprint sensor (Biocentric GuardDog using Authentec sensor).
• (2003) Smart Truck II
• (2004) Smart Truck III. Veridt provided fingerprint authentication.

US Department of Transportation

• (2003) Biometric Global Login for HAZMAT transport security.

Lift Truck

• (2009 Nov) Fenwick-Linde integrates an ID3 fingerprint reader in their lift truck.
