Computer Vision for Construction
alwaysAI computer vision delivers real-time, actionable data to optimize site productivity and improve margins.
Monitor Large Construction Sites in Real-Time With Practical AI
Computer vision enables existing cameras to immediately identify and interpret objects in the physical world. Gain unprecedented insights into projects with real-time data to improve operating margins and reduce liability. Manage direct labor and material costs more efficiently and provide a safer and more secure working environment by leveraging existing camera infrastructures with Vision AI for construction.
Construction Use Cases
Safety
Problem
40% of the most frequently cited safety violations in construction pertain to inadequate use of personal protective equipment (PPE). Improper or missing PPE results in preventable injuries or non-compliance costs.
Solution
Track PPE compliance in real-time and get immediate alerts for infractions and safety risks to reduce injuries, save money, and optimize staffing.
Gate Activity Monitoring
Problem
Subcontractors, workers, vehicles, and materials come on and off construction sites regularly. Monitoring frequent gate activity is difficult but essential for ensuring safety and optimal productivity.
Solution
Monitor gate activity in real-time so you know exactly who and what is entering and exiting your job site. Get immediate alerts 24/7 to improve safety and productivity.
Occupancy Counting
Problem
Between delivery workers, subcontractors, day laborers and others, dozens or more people enter and exit construction sites daily. Not knowing who is on-site poses a number of security and safety risks.
Solution
Accurately count workers and site occupancy in real-time with computer vision. Get immediate surveillance alerts 24/7 about suspicious, unusual, or unsafe activity.
Progress Tracking
Problem
Construction equipment and machinery are expensive. Costs from construction errors alone are estimated at $273 billion each year in the U.S. Idle machinery and unplanned delays can add additional costs.
Solution
Track construction progress in real-time with computer vision. This practical AI delivers unprecedented data about machine and tool usage and idle time as well as materials delivery to increase productivity.
