SMARTVID.IO: Artificial Intelligence At Industrial Level - By: @CreativeBlue

Introduction

The field of civil construction works and infrastructures encompasses a fairly extensive procedure and is filled with somewhat difficult tasks to coordinate. Thanks to the ability of the engineers and the group of collaborators it is possible to successfully carry out the objectives of a work.
The aspect related to industrial safety, becomes paramount since the integrity of the worker must be guaranteed at all times by the contractor. The protection mechanisms are taken from the beginning, during and at the end of any project.
There are AI programs applied to construction; Thanks to the accuracy of calculations and efficient data management, they allow obtaining favorable results in certain areas such as: Security, cost analysis and production.

A solution for construction sites

I have known a platform called Smartvid.io for management of videos and photographs with AI technology.
Handles hundreds of data collected during the execution of the work through cameras installed on the site, then the software processes the information detecting unsafe conditions or potential risk.
Being able to issue a report to the engineers so that they can support the matter related to safety.
The recognition algorithms identify criteria, such as: helmets, vests, protectors, signs and any other security attire.

AI in industrial safety

Subsequently, it organizes the information and processes the data, offering results about what security is like during the entire course of constructive activities.
In a matter of minutes, it covers a difficult task to execute and it would take a whole working day to obtain results, likewise, it would require a large group of professional work in the area that is responsible for coordinating such activities of monitoring and inspection of the work .

It serves as a great help to the outstanding team of industrial engineers, who can take forecasts and avoid accidents involving human resources, obtaining benefits in terms of safety, performance, costs and application of regulations.

What is Smartvid.io?

Smartvid.io it is a platform for photographic management and videos that uses machine learning to solve industrial level cases.

Actively participates in the technological advances in matters of safety in the industry and large-scale civil construction works.

They rely on a team of computer engineering and software design consultants with proven experience, specialized in AI and business management.
Its vision is to solve the complex problems that derive from the works with modern tools easy to implement and with practical results that can be handled comfortably, changing the traditional way of working for a different alternative that offers results in less time.

How does it collaborate with the Industry?

Occupational Safety

To start, it automatically scans the work site, using photos and videos, trying to detect situations of potential risk.
A large percentage of deaths in the work area correspond to construction workers due to conditions of job insecurity. (20% in the United States);

Statistics indicate that 1 in 10 workers are injured at work annually. Deaths at work have increased annually since 2007.

According to data provided by: OSHA (Occupational Health and Safety Administration), EE.UU.

The problem

• The need for more efficient occupational health and safety programs
• Improper organization of materials and equipment within the work area.
• Inspection personnel for poor job security (There should be more safety professionals in the works)
• The instructions and practices regarding safety are obsolete or do not conform to the reality of a certain work.

The solution

Smartvid.io offers a solution of high technological level which we will try to abbreviate in three steps:

1. Using cameras and video equipment placed on site, Smartvid.io adds all the material collected and integrates with BIM 360 Field, BIM 360 Docs, Procore and Egnyte; Autodesk programs dedicated to the organization and analysis of data with machine learning technology.
   For more information about:
   BIM 360 Field, BIM 360 Docs, Procore and Egnyte, see here

2. Smartvid.io automatically makes facial recognition of workers, as well as other elements of the field of work, labeling the data that show: PEOPLE, HARDHATS, LADDERS, GLOVES and other objects relevant to safety.

3. Search the projects with relevant tags to review photos and videos already selected, relating them to other files loaded in the system and pointing out any potential risks.

Frequent data loading and the prominent use of the system mean that the system evolves over time and can offer answers to more complex cases that may occur in the field in the future.

Materials and equipment of the work

It monitors the quality of processes and the use of materials and equipment in the workplace, as well as the organization and proper storage of these throughout the work until its completion.

In a working day, the personnel highlighted in the field activities take photographs and make video captures during the processes,

this generates a large amount of information that sometimes exceeds 50GB of storage. At the end of the projects this data ends up dispersed in multiple devices, difficult to organize and so regulates most of it is lost.

The problem

• There is not enough time to devote to carrying out those organizational activities and copies of the material collected.
• The information is dispersed in the different devices of the field personnel; in cameras, telephones, desktop PC, etc.
• Generates a communication problem among those responsible for making the project's safety report.

The solution

1. Photographs of field workers and narrated videos are collected from which a follow-up list of the most important cases that violate the rules and regulations can be made; It will allow to identify by means of the information loaded the faults and risks in the personnel taking into account the handling of materials, equipment and the organization of the work site.

2. Smartvid.io Automatically labels all the information of images and video, grouping them in accesses with defined keywords to establish the items and facilitate the search; words like: ROOM 204, WEST CORNER, ROUGH-IN COMPLETE.

3. Finally, the responsible engineers carry out the search according to the established labels, to see the content and update the development of the project. The selected photos and videos allow you the problems or risks of progress. And they can share the link with any internal or external!

Conclusion

The professionals of the industrial security face day to day situations that must handle with professionalism and efficiency; but due to the diversity of cases and the complexity of the field they sometimes require additional help.

Smartvid.io supported by the AI and machine learning, it provides a tool that will allow the development of its functions of personnel control, supervision of work areas and risk situations in an efficient manner and with widely favorable results.

Currently, there are several known uses of AI and Robotics applied to industry and civil construction, its benefits are incalculable; Some programs like Autodesk already include machine learning as part of their software, modernizing Architecture and Civil Engineering, for an easier way to do the tasks that derive from these important professions.

This release is intended to review the benefits of the smartvid.io platform, its applications in the security area for greater performance and control of projects.
