Description

Work-related fatalities remain a pressing concern in the construction industry, with statistics revealing alarming rates of fatal incidents. Traditional safety measures, while essential, often fall short in addressing the dynamic nature of hazards in construction environments. In response, this paper proposes a novel approach to safety training utilizing Augmented Reality (AR) integrated with Computer Vision technology. The research objective is to mitigate work-related fatalities by developing a real-time training method that superimposes hazard animations onto construction site settings. Through AR simulations created using Unity, four major hazards - falls, slips, falling objects, and electrocution - are realistically depicted within the construction context. These simulations are integrated with a Computer Vision module that detects potential hazards in real-time using object detection algorithms.
