Research on computer vision application for safety management in construction

Abstract

In light of the complexity of building sites, safety management has always been a challenging and crucial duty. The goal of construction safety management is to ensure the safe completion of the project, maintain the life and health of workers, and decrease construction accidents and losses. The emergence of computer vision (CV) technology has transformed the old construction safety management methodology. This paper demonstrates how CV technology can increase safety and management efficiency at construction sites from an application standpoint. Firstly, the principles and methods of CV technology are introduced, and the literature analysis methodology used in this paper is also descripted in detail. Then, its application in various aspects such as real-time monitoring of construction sites, worker safety management, equipment behaviour monitoring and material quality control are researched. In addition, this paper demonstrates the significant potential of CV technology in reducing accidents and enhancing safety performance, and provides important insights into future research prospects. Finally, this paper presents a more detailed picture of the construction industrys aim to utilize CV technology to improve safety management, and is both informative and instructional.
