Improve safety on isolated worksite thanks to AI, wind farm worksite example
Wind farm construction sites are among the most isolated worksite. Discover how our camera with AI can improve workers safety.
Major Security Challenges on Wind Farm Construction Sites
Workers operating on these construction sites face multiple risks: working at height, ground co-activity, and isolated work situations. It is precisely in this demanding context that we developed our VNEXIA system, composed of portable cameras and embedded AI.
The Mobility of Portable Cameras: A Decisive Advantage
The portable nature of our system constitutes a major asset for construction site security. Our solution requires:
- No pre-existing infrastructure
- No power cables
- No internet connection
- No complex mounting constraints
The plug-and-play approach takes on its full meaning in these environments. Thanks to the magnetic mounting system, our portable cameras can be deployed anywhere on the construction site, creating an optimized surveillance network.
A Targeted AI Response to Field Needs
Intelligent PPE Non-Compliance Detection
The client had expressed a specific need: to identify situations where people were putting themselves at risk by not wearing personal protective equipment (PPE). Our cameras were configured to automatically detect PPE non-compliance in high-risk areas. As highlighted by the on-site security manager, PPE non-compliance is rarely intentional. It generally results from oversight or lack of attention. At the end of the day, fatigue reduces vigilance, creating conditions conducive to accidents.
VNEXIA's Objectives for Optimizing Security
Our AI system pursues three main objectives:
1. Precise Identification of Deficiencies
Determine which personal protection is missing in sensitive areas of the construction site.
2. Real-Time Alerts
Signal imminent danger situations to enable rapid intervention.
3. Educational Support
Enable the security manager to deliver targeted messages to workers in a continuous improvement approach.
Respect for Anonymity and Confidentiality
In this type of project, guaranteeing worker anonymity constitutes an absolute priority. VNEXIA was not designed as a traditional surveillance system. Images collected by our portable cameras are entirely anonymized, thus respecting workers’ privacy.
Concrete Results and Awareness
This system has made it possible to highlight that simple PPE compliance is not always respected, while identifying areas of the construction site presenting particular sensitivity. This AI-based approach offers an objective and constructive vision for sustainably improving security on the most remote construction sites.
