TopAgent IC – SMARTi | Smart Occupational Safety Monitoring System

1. Protecting workers in harsh industrial environments

In the energy industry, the specific operational environment demands strict risk control. Areas such as offshore oil rigs, petrochemical refineries, or large-scale construction sites all harbor numerous potential occupational safety hazards.

Therefore, Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) practices play a pivotal role in corporate governance. Ensuring worker safety is always a top priority during operations and production.

However, monitoring occupational safety across construction sites spanning tens of hectares is a daunting task for traditional patrol forces. Safety officers cannot be everywhere at once to supervise thousands of workers. Furthermore, tragic workplace accidents often stem from a brief moment of subjective negligence: a worker forgetting to fasten their hard hat strap, not wearing a life jacket when working near the water’s edge, or accidentally stepping into the operating radius of a tower crane. Delayed detection after an incident has occurred can lead to irreversible consequences.

2. SMARTi – 24/7 AI Safety Monitoring System

The SMARTi intelligent safety monitoring camera system, developed by TopAgent IC, applies Computer Vision technology combined with Deep Learning to automatically analyze hundreds of live camera (CCTV) video streams at construction sites. Notably, its deployment on sovereign AI infrastructure ensures that workers’ facial images and security contexts at critical national plants are not uploaded to the public cloud, meeting stringent data security standards.

The SMARTi system works tirelessly, analyzing dozens of frames per second to transform ordinary surveillance cameras into digital safety officers. Core monitoring features include:

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Detection: The system identifies and triggers an alarm if a worker is missing a safety helmet / hard hat, not wearing the prescribed uniform / protective gear, or not wearing a life jacket when working in offshore areas.
• Spatial and Intrusion Monitoring: The AI automatically zones hazardous spaces and identifies restricted / no-entry areas. Upon detecting a person / individual crossing the boundary line (e.g., toxic gas release zones, heavy-load crane areas), the system will activate an on-site warning siren.
• Behavior and Emergency Incident Detection: Going far beyond the capabilities of conventional cameras, SMARTi can predict a worker’s posture. Specifically, the system instantly detects critical situations such as slips / falls due to slippery surfaces or oil leaks, or even more severely, detects a person falling into the water at offshore oil rigs, enabling rescue teams to respond promptly.

3. Practical Implementation Benefits and Efficiency

In practice, the SMARTi solution has delivered tremendous value to the operational capacity of energy enterprises:

• Lightning-fast response (<2 seconds): The system can identify and send warning signals to the operations center or broadcast via on-site loudspeakers in under 2 seconds from the occurrence of a violation, preventing accidents before they actually happen.
• 30% reduction in safety incidents: By continuously reminding and preventing Unsafe Acts, the number of Lost Time Injuries (LTI) is significantly minimized.
• 50% increase in regulatory compliance: Helping workers remain constantly aware of the need to wear full protective gear, thereby fostering a sustainable Safety Culture.
• 20% reduction in Downtime & 25% increase in labor productivity: Whenever an accident occurs, the entire construction site must halt for investigation. Eliminating incidents ensures continuous construction progress, thereby enhancing the overall productivity of the enterprise.
• >90% accuracy in detecting HSE violations: AI algorithms are continuously trained under complex lighting conditions, dust interference, and storms, ensuring no Health, Safety, and Environment risks are missed.

The combination of computer vision and the SMARTi solution optimizes how energy corporations manage occupational safety. The application of sovereign AI in the energy sector once again affirms its role in the industry’s digital transformation process, not only optimizing economic figures but also silently protecting the workers who dedicate themselves day and night to the nation’s development.
