Workplace safety with cameras
The problem
Checking around the clock that health and safety measures are followed is impossible for one person.
The solution
Video analytics on the existing cameras that detects breaches in real time and alerts the person in charge instantly.
Breaches were discovered late, by reviewing recordings.
Alerts as it happens, with the image of what occurred.
Context
On construction sites and in industrial plants, protective equipment is mandatory, but continuous monitoring depends on someone watching.
The challenge
Checking at all times that everyone wears a helmet and a vest, or that nobody enters a restricted area, is impossible by eye. Breaches are discovered late, once there has already been a scare.
What we did
- Video analysis on the cameras already installed, with no change to the infrastructure.
- Real-time detection of helmet and vest use and of access to dangerous areas.
- Instant alerts to the safety manager, with the image of the moment.
- An incident log for audits and improvement plans.
- Image processing that respects workers' privacy.
Technology
- Computer vision
- On-site processing
- Web alert dashboard
The result
Breaches are detected as they happen, not when reviewing recordings, and the safety team spends its time correcting rather than watching.
