AI-BASED VIDEO ANALYTICS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
CONSTRUCTION
The construction industry has been slow to adopt new technologies due to the unique nature of construction sites. By adopting specific solutions, construction businesses are able to complete projects faster, ensure a safer working environment and comply with industry regulations.
Challenges affecting the construction industry
Construction sites are one of the most complex security challenges. We need to be able to avoid stock and equipment theft and comply with health and safety regulations without compromising the pace of the work. Construction is one of the top 3 industries in terms of frequency of occupational accidents. Damage from equipment thefts exceeds $400 million in the US.
- Personal Protection Equipments (PPE) such as helmets, protective goggles, and high visibility vests are often ignored
- In hazardous work environments, occupational injuries remain a common phenomenon
- Monitoring restricted access areas is hard due to the sheer number of security personnel
CENTRALIZED SURVEILLANCE,
ENHANCED BY AI-DRIVEN VIDEO ANALYTICS
To avoid these accidents it is necessary to pay more attention to the wearing of personal protection equipment and monitoring of hazardous areas even with limited security personnel. In the last couple of years mobile security cameras have been deployed in these sites; however human attention span usually limits the effectiveness of this solution. Our AI technology is capable of detecting intrusions, loitering and health and safety infringements to minimize health and safety and financial risks.

Case Study: Mitigating Work Site Safety Hazards in Poor IT Conditions
Ultinous in collaboration with Network Optix, has successfully implemented AI-based video solutions for harsh industrial environments like mines, solar parks, and construction sites. Despite the lack of traditional IT infrastructure, the solution is compact, powerful, and hassle-free, providing safety and security features for workers and assets in these rugged environments.
The system is also suitable for forensic investigations and provides real-time notifications to operators, enabling them to take immediate action.
