POSCO ICT introduces Smart Safety Control Platform for industrial field

2022.02.09


POSCO ICT developed a "smart safety control platform" that manages the safety of manufacturing, construction and plant sites and will apply it to the site in earnest.

POSCO ICT's smart safety control platform collects and analyzes data from various sensors to monitor risk factors, informs the results to field workers to prevent safety accidents, and helps them efficiently cope with accidents that may occur.

POSCO ICT's smart safety control platform can be operated in conjunction with various safety management solutions based on AI, IoT, and cloud, and has the advantage of supporting customized operations that optimize functions according to field environment.

First of all, AI-based facial recognition technology is applied to monitor unauthorized access to dangerous areas and wearing safety equipment, and through connection with smart CCTVs, workers' unstable abnormal behavior and fires in the workplace can be detected in advance. In addition, an IoT gas detection sensor checks harmful gases in an enclosed space before work to ensure worker safety, and supports a safe working environment through real-time monitoring through safety vests during work.

In addition, by identifying the location of the worker in real time, an alarm is provided to nearby workers in the event of a dangerous situation, and on-site crisis response is supported to enable rapid rescue by utilizing the location identified in the event of an accident.

The solutions provided by POSCO ICT are modular, so that necessary functions can be selected and customized according to the field environment of each workplace.

In addition, it provides cloud-based services, making it easy to spread to regional sites. In addition, by standardizing processes verified at various sites and providing them in package form, there is an advantage of being able to build a system at a more reasonable cost in a short period of time.
