Concept
HeadgearX, a connected smart helmet platform, aims at improving personnel safety and real-time monitoring of construction sites. The smart helmet hardware is designed to be flexible and expandable in terms of sensing and actuating capabilities to adapt to various workplace requirements and functionalities.
In the demonstrator, the system consists of ten different sensors, visual and haptic feedback mechanism and Bluetooth connectivity. A companion Android application is also developed to add further functionalities including those configurable over-the-air. The construction project supervisors can monitor all on-site personnel's real-time statuses from a central web server which communicates to individual HeadgearX helmets via the companion app.
