Background and Challenges
Construction sites are high-risk environments where workers face potential dangers such as falls from heights, heavy machinery hazards, and failure to wear proper personal protective equipment (PPE). Construction managers typically face the following challenges:
1. Difficulty Identifying Safety Hazards:
Traditional surveillance systems merely record videos but fail to detect real-time violations, such as lack of proper safety gear or unauthorized operations in restricted zones.
2. Tracking Violations is Inefficient:
With dynamic and high-staff turnover environments, it’s difficult to detect untrained workers or unauthorized personnel entering hazardous zones in time.
3. Diverse Scenarios with Varied Needs:
Large construction projects often encompass various risk zones (e.g., traffic management, heavy equipment operation, elevated work), requiring specialized and multi-faceted monitoring solutions.
4. High Deployment and Operational Costs:
Full-coverage surveillance systems are often prohibitive in terms of cost and complicated to install for construction sites.
Red Zebra AI Solution
Red Zebra AI’s Multi-Algorithm Worker Safety Compliance Solution combines cutting-edge edge computing technology with intelligent algorithms to provide real-time safety monitoring tailored to the complex requirements of construction sites.
Key Algorithms and Applications:
1. PPE Detection Algorithm:
Identifies whether workers are wearing proper safety equipment (e.g., helmets, goggles), ensuring compliance on-site.
Issues real-time notifications or alerts to workers or supervisors for immediate action.
2. Zone Intrusion Detection Algorithm:
Creates virtual zones around restricted or dangerous areas, flagging unauthorized personnel or equipment entering these zones.
Supports dynamic configuration (e.g., updating detection zones as the construction project progresses).
3. Elevated Work Activity Analysis Algorithm:
Monitors elevated work situations to identify fall risks or unusual movements, triggering alerts and notifying rescue teams in case of emergencies.
4. Dynamic Machinery Zone Monitoring:
– Tracks activities around heavy machinery, identifying unsafe proximity between workers and moving machines to avoid collisions or crushing incidents.
5. Support for Multiple Camera Feeds and Advanced Scalability:
Supports up to 196 video channels for broader surveillance or larger construction sites.
Edge computing devices pre-loaded with custom or upgradable algorithms extend functionality and facilitate seamless operation in diverse environments.
