This article sheds light on the transformative power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in enhancing industrial safety measures. From the utilisation of drones and wearables, to the implementation of robotics and computer vision, AI technologies are revolutionising workspace safety standards.
The emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies has ushered in a transformative era within the industrial safety domain, promising enhanced workspace security. Should business executives opt to integrate these AI tools into their safety protocols, the potential benefits for all stakeholders stand to be significant.
Such AI-enabled safety solutions encompass a diverse array of technologies, including drones, robotics, wearables, sensors, smart equipment, Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), computer vision, mobile applications, and analytics software. While hardware elements facilitate data collection and operational execution, their software counterparts leverage machine learning algorithms to discern patterns and derive actionable insights pertaining to safety hazards.
Adopting AI Tech
The culture and risk management policies within their businesses should also be conducive to adopting AI technology for safety purposes. Artificial intelligence can help with safety rules compliance, like identifying hazardous objects, monitoring fatal symptoms, fall detection in construction, site inspections using drones, conversational AI for safety, incident reporting using voice, AR for equipment repair, and safety training in VR.
Just as we make a giant leap towards artificial intelligence and smart technologies, it helps to quickly check if our vital factors like organisational culture and operational risk management processes are in place.
