PPE Detecto

Overview

PPE Detecto by Nurostem is an AI-powered computer vision system designed to ensure safety compliance in industrial environments. It automatically detects whether workers are wearing required personal protective equipment (PPE) such as helmets, safety vests, and masks—helping organizations maintain a safer and more compliant workplace.

Built for real-time performance, PPE Detecto uses advanced object detection and deep learning models to identify people, equipment, and safety violations with exceptional accuracy, even in challenging environments like factories, construction sites, and warehouses.


Key Features

  • Real-Time Detection: Instantly identifies PPE usage and violations from live camera feeds or video streams.

  • Multi-Class Recognition: Detects hardhats, masks, safety vests, cones, vehicles, and machinery with precision.

  • Alert Automation: Sends instant notifications or triggers alarms when non-compliance is detected.

  • Edge and Cloud Support: Deployable on edge devices (Jetson, Raspberry Pi) or cloud servers for scalability.

  • High Accuracy in Complex Environments: Optimized for low-light, motion, and varied camera angles.

  • Easy Integration: Connects with existing CCTV, ERP, or safety management systems.


Technologies Used

  • Model Backbone: YOLOv5/YOLOv8 custom-trained detection models

  • Framework: PyTorch and OpenCV

  • Deployment Platforms: Jetson Nano, GPU Servers, and Web Dashboards

  • Backend: Python Flask with RESTful APIs

  • Database: MongoDB for log storage and compliance reporting

  • Visualization: Real-time detection dashboard with alerts and statistics


Use Cases

  • Construction Sites: Ensure workers wear helmets, masks, and vests for safety compliance.

  • Manufacturing Plants: Monitor machinery and human interactions to prevent accidents.

  • Logistics and Warehouses: Detect unsafe behavior and vehicle proximity risks.

  • Oil & Gas Industry: Automate PPE audits and generate safety reports.

  • Smart Cities & Defense: Integrate with surveillance systems for public and field safety monitoring.


Impact

PPE Detecto has transformed how industries handle safety compliance—shifting from manual inspections to AI-driven automation. Companies using Nurostem’s solution have reported higher workplace safety scores, reduced incident rates, and more reliable regulatory adherence.

By ensuring protection and accountability in every frame, PPE Detecto saves lives and strengthens trust between employers and employees.
