Abstract

NIOSH researchers are studying methods to reduce struckby and caught-in accidents, involving machinery at mining operations. This is a challenging problem-in many circumstances, workers must be near moving machinery to perform their jobs. Innovative safety interventions are needed to further decrease accidents without adversely affecting productivity. Monitoring hazardous areas near machines by using the IVSs may be one possible solution, but limitations must be understood and anticipated during implementation. Although more tests are needed, some general conclusions can be drawn about the possible applications of intelligent video for stationary machine safety.
