Abstract
A ladder including sensors is provided. A remote computing device is also provided that communicates with the sensors to facilitate detection of various operating conditions. Methods for detection are also provided. One aspect of the invention provides a method for detecting stability of a ladder, the ladder comprising a pair of side rails, a plurality of steps that extend between the side rails, a sensor coupled with the ladder and configured to detect loading on the ladder. The method includes: communicating wirelessly, by a remote computing device, with the sensor; detecting, by the remote computing device, a presence of a user on the ladder; during the presence of a user on the ladder, monitoring the sensor, by the remote computing device, for an instability condition; and when the instability condition occurs, generating an alert of the instability condition.
