Safety Helmet Implementation with Centralized Information System on Remote Monitoring Applications

Abstract

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is standard equipment that required to ensure safety of workers. PPE equipment that used during work such as: Safety helmet, safety glass, and ear plug. PPE that being used by workers doesn’t informative yet, only serve as personal protective so evacuation prevention still looks difficult to do prior accident happened. In this research, Safety Helmet Project has been implemented with pulse sensor, temperature sensor, carbon monoxide gas sensor, and transmission media which able transmitting data to control and monitoring center. The system also supports multiuser monitoring applications that can be accessed simultaneously through the internet network. Based on test results, the comparison of measurement gap with standard tool has been obtained as temperature sensor is 0,07%, heart sensor is ± 4%. Accuracy level for temperature sensor and heart rate are 99,67% and 95,45% by various condition of test. Another test is delay of the transmitting sensor data to the website around ± 10 seconds and controlling around ± 5 seconds.

Helmet-Mounted Real-Time Toxic Gas Monitoring and Prevention System for Workers in Confined Places

“…Similarly, Illahi et al [ 26 ] developed a smart helmet for CO monitoring using an MQ-7 sensor. Lin et al [ 27 ] also used MQ-7 sensors to measure CO levels in parking garages using integrated WSN and building information modeling (BIM) technologies. However, the limited selectivity and narrow range of temperature and humidity of MQ-series sensors can result in inaccurate data [ 28 ].…”
