Smart Worker System

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

The Smart Worker System has been developed to utilise the latest technology to improve road worker safety, and change operational behaviour.

The Smart Worker combines smartphone applications, cloud computing, video analytics and Bluetooth technology to contribute to a reduction of the risks associated with competency, people plant interface and traffic management incursions. The Smart Worker causes blue warning cones to flash repeatedly when operatives enter within a five metres radius of the hazard.

In addition to alerting road workers to potential risks, the Smart Worker’s reporting facility will enable the collection of useful data related to incidents and near misses.

Benefits of the Smart Worker include:

  • Increased safety
  • Increased reporting on incidents and near misses
  • Reduce delays resulting from incidents
