Smart Safety and Risk Monitoring

This course explores how smart technologies - including IoT sensors, AI video analytics, Vision-Language Models (VLM), and autonomous patrol robots - can strengthen safety and risk management in construction and facility management sectors. Through practical applications such as IoT bamboo putlog monitoring, smoke and heat detection, temperature monitoring, and intelligent site surveillance, participants will learn to identify risks earlier, respond faster, and maintain clearer safety records. This course is accepted by The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE) as a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) activity.

Key Course Highlights

  • Smart Risk Monitoring: Implementation of IoT, AI, and VLM technologies for proactive. safety management and decision support.
  • IoT Risk Management Solutions: 24/7 real-time monitoring of scaffolding with alerts, fire and heat detection with instant notification charging stations, and safety mechanisms.
  • AI Video Analytics and VLM: Detection of PPE non-compliance, abnormal human posture, trespassing, fire and smoke, and hot-work hazards, supported by context-aware visual insights.
  • Autonomous Partrol: Deployment of VLM-integrated robot dogs for continuous monitoring in complex, remote, and confined areas.
  • Best Practices and Future Trends: Building a proactive safety workflow - Detect, Alert, Verify, Record, and Follow Up - incorporating human oversight of AI-assisted safety systems.
