# Industrial truck with detection devices on the forks

## Abstract

An industrial truck comprising a vehicle body and a pair of fork prongs. Each of the fork prongs extends from the vehicle body towards a corresponding fork end in a longitudinal direction. The industrial truck comprises a plurality of wheels with which the industrial truck stands and moves on a driving surface in a driven and steered manner. At least one of the wheels is assigned to each of the fork prongs. The industrial truck comprises a lifting mechanism to adjust a height of the fork prongs above the driving surface. The industrial truck comprises at least one detection unit to detect objects located in surroundings of the truck within a detection region and to output corresponding data and a control unit operatively coupled to the at least one detection unit to receive and process the data output by the at least one detection unit.
